Answer:

During oxygenic photosynthesis, light energy transfers electrons from water (H2O) to carbon dioxide (CO2), to produce carbohydrates. In this transfer, the CO2 is "reduced," or receives electrons, and the water becomes "oxidized," or loses electrons.

Answer:

The correct answer is - surface, proteins, and sugars.

Explanation:

Adhesins are the appendages present on the surface of the pathogen that help these pathogens to attach to the host cell and surface of the host. Adhesins are the components that are virulence factor these are present in both viruses and bacteria.

The adhesin component is generally made up of mainly of the proteins and sugars which help them to adhere to the cell of the host.

Thus, the correct answer is - surface, proteins, and sugars.

Why would you send a copy of the instructions in DNA versus sending the actual DNA molecule?

USPshnik [31]

DNA is copied because it cannot fit through the nuclear membrane and travel down to the ribosome.
So it is transcribed (translated) to messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA can fit through the nuclear membrane and travel down to the ribosome where proteins can be made.

This is why we cannot send the entire DNA molecule itself, it is simply too big to fit. This is why mRNA is extremely important for amino acid production.

If you extract the DNA of the coliphage φ X174, you willfind that its composition is 25 percent A, 33 percent T,24 percent G, an

kifflom [539]

Answer:

This composition of nucleotide given in the question do not obey the chargaff"s rule.

Explanation:

According to chargaff"s rule the total number of purine bases will be same to the total number of pyrimidine bases that is

Adenine+Guanine=Thymine+Cytosine

But here the above quation is not maintained because according to the question A+G=49%

and T+C = 51%.

Such DNA is replicated by rolling circle model.

When a tastant enters the mouth, what are all the structures it passes on its way to

Bond [772]

The information given about taste and the tongue is explained below.

<h3>How to explain the tongue?</h3>

The food enters the mouth passing the TOT (tip) of the tongue. It is moved around by the motion of the tongue and teeth as the food is chewed. Its movement is facilitated by the taste buds on the tongue which are jagged, aiding in their ability to move food.

Fungiform papillae on the side of the tongue and filiform papillae located on the dorsal surface of the tongue come in contact with the tastant.

Both types of papillae have taste buds that have receptors for individual tastes -sweet, sour, salty umami (savory), and bitter. Once a tastant is bound to the receptor it creates a signal that travels through one of the three carnival nerves depending on the location of the taste buds. For taste buds located on the front of the tongue, the signal travels through the facial nerve.

For taste buds located in the middle of the back of the tongue, signals travel through the glossopharyngeal nerve. The signals travel to the nucleus of the solitary tract of the brainstem, where they are relayed to the thalamus for higher processing.
