I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The statement that describe the structure of each type of macromolecule would be that the <span>building blocks of carbohydrates are sugars that are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which statements describe the structure of each type of macromolecule, would be: A, B and D. C would be the only option here whose structure, as proposed in the statement, does not meet the chemical composition criteria of an amino acid, which is the building block of proteins.

Explanation:

Macromolecules are basically the building blocks of human life. Of these our bodies depend entirely to carry out their different functions, and without them, there would not be life. These macromolecules are known as such because they are built from much smaller, and more basic chemical units. Essentially, there are 4 major types of macromolecules: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). All of them have one thing in common, and that is the presence of carbon as their building block. The variable elements would be hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and in some cases, phosphorus. From the options in the question, and given the request of the statement, three of the proposed statements effectively describe the chemical structures of the building blocks for carbs, lipids and nucleic acids, but that is not so for the building blocks of proteins, amino acids. Amino acids are not just built from carbon and nitrogen only; they will also count with hydrogen in their structure.

Ost proteins that function in the cytosol (such as actin) or in the nucleus (such as DNA polymerase) are synthesized by free ribosomes. Proteins that function within the endomembrane system (such as lysosomal enzymes) or those that are destined for secretion from the cell (such as insulin) are synthesized by bound ribosomes.
<span>As a protein destined for the endomembrane system is being synthesized by a ribosome, the first amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain act as a signal sequence. That signal sequence ensures that the ribosome binds to the outer membrane of the ER and that the protein enters the ER lumen.</span>

Explain the difference between bactericidal and bacteriostatic antibiotics.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

The bacteriostatic antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which prevents the growth of bacteria. These keeps the growth of bacteria in the stationary phase so that bacteria cannot cause harm to the host.

The bactericidal antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which kills the bacteria.

The example of bacteriostatic antibiotic is Tetracycline  that it inhibit the bacteria ribosome production of proteins. This way bacterial growth and reproduction will get restricted.

The example of bacteriocidal antibiotic is polymyxin B. It causes injuries to the plasma membrane of the bacteria which can be lethal for bacteria.
