Choose all the true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis.

Biology
1 answer:
klio [65]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis are;

1. Hydrochloric acid in gastric juices cause protein denaturation.

2. In small intestine trypsin attacks peptide bonds.

3.free amino acids are absorbed by the intestinal wall.

Explanation:

Protein digestion occurs in the duodenum and stomach and it is the breakdown of proteins to amino acids by action of Enzymes like trypsin, pepsin.

Protein is digested by the hydrolysis of carbon-nitrogen bond. Mechanical digestion of protein begins in the mouth and it continues in the small intestine and stomach.

Chemical digestion starts in the stomach where by hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice denatures the protein and convert pepsinogen to pepsin enzyme which convert the protein in food to peptides. Trypsin attacks the peptide bond that involves the carboxyl group which breaks it to polypeptide. Exopepdisases and dipeptidases breaks it down to amino acids. The amino acids released by protein digestion is then absorbed by the intestinal wall

The diploid number of chromosomes in the mustard plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, is 10. Knowing this, answer the following question
lukranit [14]

Answer:

10 chromosomes/sister chromatids

Explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.

Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.

Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.

N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.

Cold ocean currents generally come from
julia-pushkina [17]

Warm ocean currents originate near the equator and move towards the poles or higher latitudes while cold currents originate near the poles or higher latitudes and move towards the tropics or lower latitudes. The current's direction and speed depend on the shoreline and the ocean floor.
