<span>The exfoliative toxin is responsible for a skin disease called staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome. This exotoxin, exfoliatin is produced by Staphylococcus aureus and it induces the formation of fluid-filled blisters with easily ruptured, thin walls, usually in infants. Exfoliatin has the protease activity which causes peeling of the skin by destroying adhesion between keratinocytes (skin cells).</span>

Indicate whether each of the following descriptions better applies to a centromere (C), a telomere (T), or an origin of replicat
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

T T C O C T

Explanation:

Each eukaryotic chromosome usually has repeated telomere sequences ranging from 2 to as many as 2000.

There is normally just one specialized DNA sequence called the centromere per eukaryotic chromosomal DNA molecule.

The origin of replication is the site where DNA duplication starts in S phase.

The centromere attaches the chromosome to the mitotic spindle via the kinetochore structure.

Teleomere contains repeateted sequences at the ends of the chromosomes.

What is the reaction needed to remove a glucose molecule from a polysaccharide, 100 glucose molecues long
vaieri [72.5K]

The reaction needed to remove glucose molecule from a polysaccharide is hydrolysis.

Glucose is a type of monosaccharide which is used in the body for energy.

These monosaccharides such as:

  • Glucose,
  • Fructose and
  • Galactose;

can combine together to form a larger molecule of sugar known as polysaccharides in a reaction called condensation reaction.

Examples of polysaccharides are

  • Chitin
  • Cellulose
  • Start
  • Inulin

These polysaccharides can also be broken down to form the various monosaccharides that makes them up.

The hydrolysis of polysaccharides involves the breaking of the glycosidic bonds that hold the monomers of a polysaccharide molecule together.

This leads to the formation of monosaccharides such as glucose.

how do you think plant cells differ from animal cells? (Hint: what can plants do that animals cannot?
zvonat [6]
A difference between plant cells and animal cells is that most animal cells are round whereas most plant cells are rectangular.Plant cells have a rigid cell wall that surrounds the cell membrane. Animal cells do not have a cell wall. When looking under a microscope, the cell wall is an easy way to distinguish plant cells.

Difference Between Plant And Animal Cells 1 Chloroplast. Like animal cells plant cells have mitochondria. 2 Cell Wall. Animal cells do not contain a cell wall while plant cells and fungi cells do. 3 Vacuole. Vacuoles are very large membrane-bound sacs within plant cells.
