What energy yield (in molecules of ATPATP per molecule of monosaccharide) would you predict for the bacterial catabolism of raff

inose, a trisaccharide
Biology
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is 2.67 ATP per molecule.

Explanation:

With the help of sucrose, it comes to known that the dissociation of a sugar-sugar bond generates one phosphorylated monosaccharide. Therefore, raffinose, which is a trisaccharide exhibits bonds of two sugar-sugar molecules. Post dissociation, they will generate one regular monosaccharide and two phosphorylated monosaccharides.  

There will be the generation of net ATPs by each phosphorylated monosaccharide as they are already phosphorylated. While the regular monosaccharide, which is first needed to get phosphorylated will only produce two ATPs. Thus, a total of 8 ATPs will be produced by one molecule of raffinose. After dividing by three monosaccharides, the molecule will produce 8/3 = 2.67 ATPs per monosaccharide.

Avery and DNA (page 289)
Ivan

Yes, Avery, Mc Leod and Mc Carty do thought that genes may be involved in the transformation of non virulent rough Strains of <em>Diplococcus pneumoniae</em> to harmful smooth strained bacteria

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Avery was a Canadian medical researcher who along with other two well known scientists of the contemporary time went for an experiment where he took two strains of bacteria Diplococcus pneumoniae - one is rough and nonvirulent and another is smooth and virulent. For a control run, he injected both the bacteria in separate mice and the expected result was there. Now as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria, the mice survived. But as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria with rough bacteria, although there was no organism which can kill the mice the mice died. And autopsy revealed the presence of live smooth bacteria in the lungs.

Thus they suspected something have gone from the dead smooth bacteria into the non virulent rough bacteria which lead to transformation of the rough bacteria to smooth ones. Thus, the experiment was carried on, which suspected role of genes in this transformation.

FRAP has revealed that some proteins move in cell membranes much slower than they move in reconstituted liposomes. Which of the
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

e. All could limit protein mobility

Explanation:

Plasma membrane proteins perform a variety of functions: they act preferentially on transport mechanisms, organizing true tunnels that allow substances to pass into and out of the cell, function as membrane receptors, among other functions. These proteins vary greatly in their mobility, some are as mobile as lipids, while others are practically immobile. But FRAP has revealed that some proteins move in cell membranes much more slowly than in reconstituted liposomes. This limited mobility can be explained by the statement in alternative "E" of the above question.
