<h2>B) is the correct option </h2>

Explanation:

  • Succinate dehydrogenase is the smallest component of electron transport chain and consists of four different subunits including FAD, 3 Fe-S centers
  • It catalyzes oxidation of succinate to fumarate and electrons released transferred to ubiquinone
  • Succinate dehydogenase transfer electrons from succinate to ubiquinone via FADH2 thus this complex directly links tricarboxylic acid cycle to electron transport chain
  • Activity of succinate dehydrogenase is inhibited by malonate which is a competitive inhibitor as a result oxidation of succinate to fumarate will not occur and hence concentration of fumarate will decrease

Which one of the following is a requirement for a good primer? Select one: a. Guanine and Cytosine should make up less than half
Alex

Answer: B. Melting temperatures of primer should be between 55-80 degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Bacause the melting temperature controls the binding of the primers to your template DNA. At melting temperature 50% of the primer molecules are bound to their corresponding target sequence. If the difference in melting temperature between the two primers is too high, it might be difficult to find experimental conditions where both primers can bind to their target.

NacL is dissolved in water so that the concentration is initially higher in one part of the water the other,______ will occur so
mixas84 [53]
NaCl is dissolved in water so that in a given region or volume the concentration is initially higher in one part than the other l, thus simple diffusion will occur so that there is a net difference or 0, with respect to the concentration of NaCl in a particular volume of water than another. Basically the NaCl will be distributed throughout volume of water.
