Answer:

c. Only one of the statements is true

Explanation:

Quaternary structure, the highest level of protein organization in which  association of several protein chains are closely arranged. The protein subunits are attached together by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds between nonpolar side chains. it is present in all the proteins which have 80 or more amino acids are present.

Collagen, is most abundant protein in the animal kingdom. It is insoluble fibrous protein present in the extracellular matrix and in connective tissue.

A protein chain has directionality consist of a free amino group at one end, and a free carboxyl group on other end.

Hence, only (2) statement is true the correct option is c.

Answer:

c. Only one of the statements is true-(2) Quaternary structure, the highest level of protein organization, is found in all proteins in which 80 or more amino acids are present.

Explanation: Quantenary structure of a protein is a closely packed or complex organization of proteins together as a result of many polypeptide or subunit of protein joined together. Each subunit has it own primary,secondary and tertiary structure. For protein to function effectively, the subunit must be arranged in an organized or patterned form. It is the highest level of protein organization. Others included primary,secondary and terrier structure.

Example of Quantenary is Heamoglobin that is located in Red blood cell and used for transportation of oxygen and DNA(deoxyribose nucleic acid) Polymerase needing for replication of DNA strand.

15 POINTS ANSWER FAST -- Choose the correct description of a comet.
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Bodies of ice and rock that orbit the Sun and produce a coma and tail of vapor and dust when near the Sun

Explanation:

So if you go to the NASA dictionary it states:

Comet- cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust that orbit the Sun.

So it is most definitely the second option

¿Por qué las bacterias resistentes se multiplican más rápido después de que un paciente ha tomado antibióticos en comparación co
Fofino [41]

Answer: In Spanish

¿Cómo se vuelven resistentes las bacterias a los antibióticos?

R: Las bacterias pueden volverse resistentes a los antibióticos de varias maneras. Algunas bacterias pueden "neutralizar" un antibiótico cambiándolo de una manera que lo hace inofensivo. Otros han aprendido a bombear un antibiótico fuera de la bacteria antes de que pueda causar algún daño. Algunas bacterias pueden cambiar su estructura externa, por lo que el antibiótico no tiene forma de adherirse a la bacteria que está diseñada para matar.

Después de exponerse a los antibióticos, a veces una de las bacterias puede sobrevivir porque encontró una manera de resistir el antibiótico. Si incluso una bacteria se vuelve resistente a los antibióticos, puede multiplicarse y reemplazar todas las bacterias que fueron eliminadas. Eso significa que la exposición a los antibióticos proporciona una presión selectiva que hace que las bacterias sobrevivientes sean más propensas a ser resistentes. Las bacterias también pueden volverse resistentes a través de la mutación de su material genético.

Answer in English :

How do bacteria become resistant to antibiotics?

A: Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics through several ways. Some bacteria can “neutralize” an antibiotic by changing it in a way that makes it harmless. Others have learned how to pump an antibiotic back outside of the bacteria before it can do any harm. Some bacteria can change their outer structure so the antibiotic has no way to attach to the bacteria it is designed to kill.

After being exposed to antibiotics, sometimes one of the bacteria can survive because it found a way to resist the antibiotic. If even one bacterium becomes resistant to antibiotics, it can then multiply and replace all the bacteria that were killed off. That means that exposure to antibiotics provides selective pressure making the surviving bacteria more likely to be resistant. Bacteria can also become resistant through mutation of their genetic material.

I don't know if this help you at all.

Atropine is sometimes used to dilate the pupil for an eye examination. which receptor would atropine block?
grigory [225]

Atropine would block the receptor called muscarinic acetylcholine receptors present in the eye.

Atropine is the Anticholinergic agent which is also known as parasympatholytics. The activity of neurotransmitters at the receptors leads to pupil constriction.

Atropine is used to block these receptors that allow the pupillary muscles to relax. This causes the dilation of the pupil.

Atropine is the mydriatics that is used for pupillary dilation to conduct a detailed examination of eye diseases.

without this medication, the pupil will only dilate in the darkness. However, doctors cannot examine the eye problems as there is darkness as they need light for checkups.

devlian [24]

Passive diffusion is a form of passive transport and a type of diffusion by which particles from a high concentration gradient passes through a biological membrane to a low concentration gradient. Diffusion, or simple diffusion on the other hand, is the passage of molecules without the need of a membrane.
