De novo purine synthesis occurs by the stepwise addition of atoms or groups of atoms to 5‑phosphoribosyl 1‑pyrophosphate (PRPP).

The atoms of the purine rings are supplied by glutamate, glycine, glutamine, aspartate, and N 10 ‑formyltetrahydrofolate (THF). Inosine monophosphate (IMP), the product of the pathway, is a purine nucleotide that can be converted to either AMP or GMP. The structure of the base is labeled according to the numbering convention for purines. Identify the direct source of each atom in the purine ring of IMP.

Answer:

Explanation:

Like we all know, the purine ring of IMP is made up of a nine membered compound . they are heterocyclic aromatic organic compound that consist of a pyrimidine ring fused to an imidazole ring. there are four nitrogen atoms and five carbon atom.

The ring is imidazole ring is made up of N1, C2, N3, C4, C5, C6 with the pyrimidine sharing C4 and C5 with the imidazole ring and also made up of N7, C8, N9.

the direct source of N1 is from aspartate

the direct source of C2 and C8 is from N 10 ‑formyltetrahydrofolate (THF)

N3 and N9 is derived from the amide group of Glutamine

C4, C5 and N7 is derivd from Glycine

C6 is derived from bicarbonate

When the outer electron shell is full in an element, this creates a __________ ___________
Ierofanga [76]

<u>Answer: </u>

When the outer electron shell is full in an element, this creates a Noble gas.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Noble gases are the elements that belong to group 18 in the periodic table.  Noble gases are also called as inert gases. The outermost shell of the noble gases are fully filled by electrons. Due to this the noble gases don’t react with any other elements and remain isolated.

There are 6 noble gases in the periodic table. They are helium (He), Argon (Ar), Neon (Ne) Krypton (Kr), Radon (Rn) and Xenon (Xe). Noble gases conduct electricity. They are fluorescent, odorless and colorless. Noble gases are used a maintain stable elements in a constant and safe environment.

Jose and Karl were both exposed to the influenza virus at work. Jose had a flu shot made from killed influenza virus six weeks a
ipn [44]

The correct answer is Karl will get sick and Jose will not this time, but neither will get this influenza again since they both will have acquired active immunity to it.

In the case of Jose artificially active immunity has been induced due to vaccination. A vaccine instigates a primary response against the antigen without resulting in any signs of the disease. On the other hand, Karl will acquire active immunity naturally in future, as when an individual get exposed to a live pathogen, he or she develops the disease, and turns immune as an outcome of the primary immune response.

identify the subcellular structure of the neuron that forms the basis for the transmission of nerve impulses. (2 points) describ
melisa1 [442]

The subcellular structures of neuron that forms the basis for transmission of nerve impulses are the synaptic vesicles.

What are the steps in impulse transmission between neurons?

  • The action potential or nerve impulse reaches the <u>axon</u> of neuron and depolarises the membrane.
  • Voltage gated Calcium channels open .
  • Arrival of action potential causes the synaptic vesicle to attach to presynaptic membrane.
  • Calcium influx triggers release of neurotransmitter.
  • This neurotransmitters bind to postsynaptic membrane and new impulses are created.

Synaptic vesicle under resting condition:

  1. The neurotransmitter molecules are stored in synaptic vesicles.
  2. If the neurotransmitter leak from the vesicles, they are destroyed by enzymes.
  3. During resting condition, they are placed randomly.
  4. When an impulse reaches the axon, vesicles are arranged in the presynaptic membrane.

Thus from the above we can conclude that, synaptic vesicles are the subcellular structures in transmission of nerve impulses and , under resting condition they are placed randomly.

How would being able to detect damaged members of a prey species be beneficial to individual prey?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

In all different levels of the food webs and food chains, it is seen that damaged members of the prey have become easy food for the predators.

Explanation:

Preys can identify the other members of their species are injured or wounded or fed by the predators by their body fluid in as if a predator eats the prey the blood or other body fluid releases. These fluids or blood help individual prey species to be aware of the predator as they recognize that their species member is wounded or consumed by there olfactory receptors.

There are several other chemicals cue that is species specif that are released by the prey to alarm the other species member by injured or dead members.

Thus, the correct answer is - In all different levels of the food webs and food chains it is seen that damaged members of the prey have become easy food for the predators.
