Which of the following statements about 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) binding is FALSE?

Biology
2 answers:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The answer is C. BPG aids oxygen delivery to tissues by increasing the affinity of myoglobin for oxygen

Explanation:

The 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) which can also be referred to as the 2,3 - di phosphoglycerate , is being produced by the red cells and has the ability to deoxygenate hemoglobin. This is because , his accumulation results to a decrease in the affinity for oxygen, this means that , it will convert hemoglobin to a low oxygen affinity state.

In this case, comparing the options given, it will be concluded that, 2,3  -biphosphoglycerate {BPG} does not aids the delivery of oxygen to tissues, but  decreases the affinity of oxygen, which deoxygenate hemoglobin, and causes the concentration of the carbon dioxide to increase.

Answer:

The answer is C: BPG aids oxygen delivery to tissues by increasing the affinity of myoglobin for oxygen.

Explanation:

2,3-Bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) or BPG controls the affinity for haemoglobin to oxygen and not myoglobin. Myoglobin is a monomer, where as haemoglobin is a tetramer hence BPG cannot have an effect on myoglobin.

What three processes lead to variation among offspring that have the same two parents?
beks73 [17]

Explanation:

Genetic variation in offspring during sexual reproduction is caused by

  • crossing over
  • independent assortment
  • randomized fertilization

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained.

Conversely in meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved through meiotic divisions, producing 4 (n) germ cells (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell.

  • crossing over:  the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined.
  • independent assortment in metaphase I of meiosis: chromosomes align independently and genes segregate independently into new combinations ...in humans 2n, n = 23, 8 million combinations of chromosomes possible
  • randomized fertilization: sperm cells fertilize an ovum to form a zygote. This occurs randomly by chance, to result in a complete set of chromosomes 2n, that is a novel combination of half each parent's number of chromosomes

Proteins that are functionally less important for the survival of an organism generally evolve _____ more important proteins.
Reika [66]

Proteins that are functionally less important for the survival of an organism generally evolve faster than more important proteins.

Proteins serve as the building blocks for all of life's essential processes. The proteins evolve along with the genes that create them, adding new functionality or features that may potentially result in the development of new species.

The mutation of amino acid-coding nucleotides and the stabilization of novel variations in the population are the two phases required for protein evolution.

The stability of a protein's folded structure, how well it prevents aggregation, and how well it is chaperoned all affect how quickly it evolves. According to the studies, the degree of a protein's expression has a greater influence on its evolutionary rate than does the protein's functional significance.

In the energy pyramid below, what would most likely happen to all other levels if a disease killed off all of the rabbits? *
Pavlova-9 [17]
The answer is A. Rabbits eat grass. The snakes eat the rabbits and the hawks eat the snakes. So if rabbits died off, so would the snakes, and the hawks. Because both of their food sources would deplete. And grass would flourish.
