Briefly discuss the current controversy about which complex organic molecules formed first: nucleic acids or proteins

The controversy surrounding the nucleic acids and proteins, regarding which one of them was formed first is the most popular controversy in the biology world today. The nucleic acids stores and the genetic information. The proteins essential for all the life processes are encoded by the genes formed of the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). But proteins (enzymes) are required for the formation of proteins from the genes. The inter-dependency of the nucleic acids and proteins on each other possesses a dilemma to the question 'which of them arrived first'.

The answer to this dilemma was answered when it was discovered that RNA was capable of not only carrying the genetic information, but also acting as catalyst to the chemical reaction. This finding supported the notion that the RNA evolved first serving the purpose of both the nucleic acids and emzymes.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
Darina [25.2K]

After matching each set of values of a function to the pair of points that satisfy the function, we get

1-4

2-2

3-1

4-3

(4,3) and (6.7) rate of change = 2, and initial value = -5

k= 7-3/6-4 = 2, y=2x-5

(2,10) and (5, 19) rate of change=3, and initial value = 4

k= 19-10/5-2 = 9/3 = 3, y=3x+4

(2,5) and (5.2)→ rate of change = -1, and initial value = 7.

k= 2-5/5-2 =  -3/3 = -1, y= -x+7

(2.4) and (4,3) →→ rate of change = -0.5, and initial value =5

k= 3-4/4-2 = -1/2 =-0.5, y=-0.5x+5

The set of input values and the set of output values for a function each have their own names. The domain of the function is the collection of input values. The range of the function is the collection of output values.

Correct question: Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Match each set of values of a function to the pair of points that satisfy the function. rate of change = -1, and initial value = 7 rate of change = 2, and initial value = -5 rate of change = -0.5, and initial value = 5 rate of change = 3, and initial value = 4 (4, 3) and (6, 7) arrowRight (2, 10) and (5, 19) arrowRight (2, 5) and (5, 2) arrowRight (2, 4) and (4, 3) arrowRight

The characteristics of the active site microenvironment of an enzyme can be largely independent of individual catalytic mechanis
Valentin [98]

Answer: (1) Providing an optimized orientation of the substrate.

(2) Decreasing the ∆G in reaction.

(3) Excluding excess water.

Explanation: The active sites of enzymes increase the rate of reaction because they decrease the activation energy of the reaction,and the physical microenvironment provides an optimal orientation of the substrate relative to reactive functional groups while excluding excess solvent,such as water.

Although some active sites may have amino acids that form salt bridges with the amino acids from a substrate,not all do, so this is not a generic strategy of active site microenvironments
