Suppose scientists developed a genetically engineered bacteria that could use sunlight to photosynthesize a liquid fuel that cou

ld be used as a substitute for gasoline. The fuel would cost more than gasoline currently costs but would be comparable in all other ways.
Check the box next to each statement describing an effect that the new science might have on society.

States that produce oil might pass laws to ban the new bacteria.

Companies that sell gasoline could lose money.

People would have to add bacteria-growing equipment to their cars.

People who work at gas stations would lose their jobs.

People will have to spend more money to fuel their cars.

Answer: 1,2,5

Explanation:

Genetic engineering is a field of biotechnology which deals with the genetic manipulation of the organisms so that they can function according to human needs.

In the given situation, bacteria is genetically engineered to photosynthesize. The product of photosynthesis is liquid fuel which is a substitute for gasoline.

Following are correct option.

1. The state should pass laws to ban bacteria as there will be huge economic loss as commercial sales of oil will stop.

2. Companies that sale the gasoline will also have to face financial loss.

5. As it is already mentioned that bacterial fuel is costlier than gasoline. People have to spend more to fuel their cars.

Chymotrypsin is used for:__________
8_murik_8 [283]

Chymotrypsin is used for polypeptide cleavage on the C side of Trp, Tyr or Phe.

<h3>What is Chymotrypsin?</h3>

Other proteins' aromatic C-terminal amino acids are hydrolyzed by it using an active serine residue. The protease enzyme chymotrypsin cleaves peptide chains at the C-terminal phenylalanine (F), tryptophan (W), and tyrosine (Y) residues.

Since the 1960s, chymotrypsin has been used in clinical settings as an oral proteolytic enzyme preparation. In comparison to a few other enzyme preparations currently on the market, it offers better inflammatory symptom relief and supports a quicker recovery from acute tissue injury.

The inactive monomeric protein chymotrypsinogen, which is produced and secreted by mammalian pancreas, is broken down into chymotrypsin by cleavage of several peptide bonds. As a result, three different polypeptide chains that make up the active enzyme were created.

Wind is
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
B makes the most sense because wind is constantly moving, and you can also use process of elimination. Wind has no pressure it’s only speed, so knock those out. Two air masses meeting would mean that they may have equal speeds against each other not really causing movement so it would be B. Hope this helps <3

Select the endocrine organ from the drop-down menu that matches with its hormone.
Papessa [141]

Answer: The options were missing, but the endocrine organs that secret each gland are:  

Pituitary gland: Thyroid-stimulating hormone

Pituitary gland: Adrenocorticotropic

Hypothalamus: Gonadotropic

Pituitary gland: Prolactin

Pituitary gland: Growth hormone

Thyroid gland: Thyroxine

Thyroid gland: Calcitonin

Thyroid gland: Triiodothyronine

Hypothalamus: Antidiuretic

Hypothalamus: Oxytocin

Adrenal gland: Glucocorticoids

Adrenal gland: Mineralocorticoids

Adrenal gland: Epinephrine

Pineal gland: Melatonin

Thymus gland: Thymosins

Pancreas: Insulin

Pancreas: Glucagon

Explanation:

  • The pituitary gland, also known as the hypophysis, produces the thyroid-stimulating hormone, the adrenocorticotropic, prolactin, and growth hormone. The hypophysis has two parts, the anterior one and the posterior one. The anterior one secretes these hormones thanks to the action of hormones that comes from the hypothalamus.
  • The hypothalamus, which is a gland that is in the brain, produces:

gonadotropic, antidiuretic, and oxytocin. Once produced, they are stored and secreted by hypophysis. In this case, these hormones are in the other portion of the hypophysis, the posterior part. The hormones act in the reproductive system.

  • The thyroid gland, which is in the neck, produce and secretes:

thyroxine, calcitonin, and triiodothyronine. The calcitonin controls calcium concentration, while the thyroxine and triiodothyronine impact the cells' metabolism.

  • The adrenal gland is above the kidneys. It secretes Glucocorticoids, Epinephrine, and Mineralocorticoids. The mineralocorticoids regulate the concentrations of water and salt in our body; glucocorticoids have many functions, one is fighting inflammation; lastly, epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, is released in a fight or flight reaction.
  • The pancreas is an organ and a gland. As a gland, it secretes glucagon and insulin to regulate the concentration of glucose in the blood.
  • The pineal gland is on the brain. This gland secretes melatonin, which is a hormone that helps us to sleep.
  • The thymus gland is in the chest, and it produces a hormone called thymosin. This hormone helps in the production of leucocytes, which the thymus produces.

Kipish [7]
The answer is C. Purines (A and G) have double-ring structure while pyrimidines (C and T) have single rings. The obligate complimentary base pairing between a purine and pyrimidine ensures that the width between the helix backbones are maintained at approximately 20 angstroms.
