A spheroidal bacterium with a diameter of 1 mm contains 2 molecules of a particular protein. What is the molar concentration?

creativ13 [48]

Answer : The molar concentration is, $6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of protein.

$\text{Moles of protein}=\frac{\text{Number of molecules of protein}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}$

Number of molecules of protein = 2 molecules

Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}molecules/mol$

$\text{Moles of protein}=\frac{2\text{ molecules}}{6.022\times 10^{23}molecules/mol}=3.32\times 10^{-24}mol$

Now we have to calculate the radius.

Radius = $\frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{1mm}{2}=0.5mm=5.0\times 10^{-4}m$

Conversion used : (1 mm = 0.001 m)

Now we have to calculate the volume.

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (5.0\times 10^{-4}m)^3$

$V=5.23\times 10^{-10}m^3=5.23\times 10^{-7}L$

Conversion used : (1 m³ = 1000 L)

Now we have to calculate the molar concentration.

$Concentration=\frac{\text{Moles of protein}}{\text{Volume}}$

$Concentration=\frac{3.32\times 10^{-24}mol}{5.23\times 10^{-7}L}$

$Concentration=6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L$

Thus, the molar concentration is, $6.35\times 10^{-18}mol/L$

What does it mean if there are few differences in the amino acid sequence

seraphim [82]

The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by DNA. In a protein that is present in all species, the amino acid sequence will be different. Once a protein has been chosen, the amino acid sequence of that protein in different species are compared. More similarities, or fewer differences, indicate that two species are closely related. (sorry if im wrong!)

Changes to body cells affect

kow [346]

Answer:

Cell Division. Read explanation

Explanation:

It wouldn't be any of the sex cells so that would take out gene activity and offpsring. The only thing that changes the somatic (body) cells would be the slowing of cell division which I would assume is the correct answer.
