Which components of egg white are responsible for foam formation?
forsale [732]
Ovalbumin is the component of egg white which is responsible for foam formation.
Ovalbumin is the main protein component of the egg white and it is responsible for creating the foam structure when the egg whites are beaten. The physical stress caused by beating the egg white, causes the protein ovalbumin to denature and unfold. This denaturation, along with the mixing of air in the egg white, causes the formation of foam.

There are three checkpoints in the cell cycle what is the role.
Tanzania [10]

The 3 checkpoints include G1 where the cell growth is checked, G2 where the integrity of the DNA/chromosome is checked, and M where the integrity of the metaphase plate is checked.

<h3>Cell cycle checkpoints</h3>

There are 3 regulatory checkpoints in the life cycle of cells:

  • G1: the size of the cell, the presence of growth factors, and the integrity of the DNA are checked before the cell irreversibly commits to division.
  • G2: the integrity of the DNA and the correctness of the replication process at the S-phase are checked.
  • M: correct attachment of the spindle fibers to the chromosomes at the metaphase plate is checked.
