Answer:

Nucleation

Explanation:

The first step of formation of new phase, structure or self-assembly is called as Nucleation.

It is mentioned in the book of Molecular Biology of the Cell that whenever, In-vitro polymerization of micro-tubules and actin filament occur the first step is called nucleation. In other words Lag Phase.

Which statement is FALSE about ATP? (A) Its concentration is maintained in part by adenylate kinase.(B) The concentration of ATP
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

(B) The concentration of ATP in cells is generally much lower than that of AMP.

Explanation:

AMP is 5’-adenylic acid or adenosine monophosphate. It has only one phosphate group attached to the sugar as compared to three phosphate groups of ATP. In general, cells have a much lower concentration of AMP than ATP. ATP is found in much higher concentration in cells than the AMP since ATP serves as energy currency for the cells while AMP is involved in relatively few metabolic pathways.

Compare and contrast nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

With nuclear fission, a large atomic nucleus (such as a uranium nucleus) breaks apart into smaller nuclei, and energy is released. With nuclear fusion, small atomic nuclei (such as hydrogen) join to become larger nuclei, and energy is released. Fusion of hydrogen releases much more energy than any other type of either fusion or fission. Note that the dividing line between heavy nuclei and light nuclei is the iron nucleus, which is at the perfect point of nuclear stability, so that neither fusion nor fission of iron nuclei would release any energy.
