Actin filaments have polarity. This means that the two ends can be identified due to structural differences. The plus end is the

end to which subunits are added more rapidly. True or False
Biology
1 answer:
Naily [24]3 years ago

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Actin is a globular protein which can polymerize to form long filaments called actin filaments. These filaments are abundant in muscle cells but are also found in other places.

While polymerizing, the new actin monomers always join the existing filament in the same orientation hence the filament becomes polar. It has a barbed end and a pointed end. Barbed end is also called plus end because monomers are added to this end five to ten times faster than the minus or pointed end. As a result, the filament overall grows in the plus end direction. Hence, the given information about actin filament is true.

Why is it important to characterize and identify unknown environmental bacteria?
denpristay [2]
<span>It is important to characterize and identify unknown environmental bacteria because it is a potential pathogen. This means that it could be harmful to anyone. Thus, it is necessary to characterize and identify them in order to distinguish one organism from another and to group similar organisms by criteria of interest. Hence, bacteria are everywhere and they are part of our environment and even of us and through. Through identifying them can help us determine the cause of a disease or to test if a certain food is safe to eat or simply to know what is present in a certain ecosystem. </span>
