What term describes what sugar and H2O molecules are doing

Biology
1 answer:
dusya [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Hydrolysis.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a type of chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks down into one or more chemical bonds.

The term is used broadly for these reactions: substitution, elimination, and fragmentation reactions in which water is the nucleophile.

Biological hydrolysis is the division of biomolecules where a water molecule is consumed to effect the separation of a larger molecule into small parts. When a carbohydrate is broken down into its component sugar molecules by hydrolysis process, that is called saccharification.

After breaking down by hydrolysis process, carbohydrates produce small particles or molecules. As an example, by the hydrolysis process, sucrose produces glucose and fructose.

Brut [27]

Answer:

Although the question is incomplete, missing options are

  • In 1997, they reduced their water consumption.
  • In 1996, they planted more trees to curb water pollution.
  • In 1994, they used only bottled water for drinking purpose.
  • In 1995, they complained about foul odor and taste in water.

Correct option: <em><u>In 1996, they planted more trees to curb water pollution. </u></em>

Explanation:

Among given options, a clear trend of nitrate level can be seen. <u>Initially, the nitrate level increased in water in first two years (1994 and 1995) and then it decreased significantly</u>.

From the conditions given in the question, the most probable answer is B the plantation effect (<u>phytoremediation</u>). During phytoremediation, <u>plants take up nutrients including nitrate</u> from the water via roots. This nitrogen is then used for the growth and development of plant body mass (e.g. amino acids). As more plants were growing in later years, higher reduction of nitrate was seen. Resultantly, in 1997, the concentration of nitrate was dropped to 7.3 mg/L.

The other options are not correct due to following reasons.

A. There is no information on water consumption in the question

C. There is no information on people's behavior on drinking water lifestyle.

D. Nitrate in the water cannot be smelled or tasted.

Lysozyme is frequently found in such extracellular bodily fluids
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Lysozyme in the body fluid protects us from bacterial infection by damaging the cell wall of bacteria which ultimately kills the bacteria.

The bacterial cell wall is made up of NAG and NAM units which is joined by β (1-4) glycosidic bond. Lysozyme attacks on this bond and breaks it causing the damage in the cell wall of bacteria which leads to the death of bacteria.

Archaeal cell wall do not contain β (1-4) glycosidic linkage, it contains β(1-3) glycosidic linkage in its cell wall between NAT and NAG unit and lysozyme do not able to break β(1-3) glycosidic linkage between them so lysozyme do not cause any harm to the archaeal invaders.
