Chemical reactions that take place inside living things are called biochemical reactions. The sum of all the biochemical reactions in an organism is called metabolism.Metabolism includes both exothermic (energy-releasing) chemical reactions and endothermic (energy-absorbing) chemical reactions.
C) photosynthesis occurs only in plants and respiration occurs only in animals.
Answer:
F-actin is a double helical filament as opposed to G-actin,which is a globular protein .Each actin filament has two ends,called the plus and
the minus ends, which makes it recognizable from each other.This gives the structure a distinct polarity.
Explanation:
Actin is the most abundant protein that is found in almost all eukaryotic cells.Its a most important part cytoskeleton as its a monomeric subunits(size 42kDa) of two types of filaments i.e. microfilaments and thin filaments in cells. Actin is essentially required to maintain stability and morphogenesis of cell.It is involved in numerous significant processes such as endocytosis,cell division and migration.Actin is present in two forms:
•G-actin
•F-actin
The two forms of actin are different structurally.
G- actin is a globular shaped protein,usually present in free form(a monomer),having a tight binding site for another actin monomer.Each monomer has ATP. Upon polymerization of G-actin monomers, a polymer called F-actin filaments is form. This process is driven by hydrolysis of ATP.
Answer:
Tim and his wife are trying to have babies
Explanation:
The hCG or the Human chorionic gonadotropin is the name of a hormone that is for the maternal recognition of pregnancy and is produced by the trophoblast cells which surrounds a growing embryo, and it eventually forms placenta after implantation.
Luteinizing hormone is also known as gonadotropin. This hormones is an important sex hormones for both men and women.
In the context, the doctor advised Tim to take a medical course of hCG that is having the similar effects like the luteinizing hormones as Tim and his wife is planning for babies.
