When Griffith injected mice with living IIR (not disease-causing) and heat killed IIIS (disease-causing) bacteria, he found that

the mice died of pneumonia. What kind of bacteria did he then isolate from the dead mice that suggested transformation had occurred?

Answer:

The correct answer is: Living IIIS (disease causing) bacteria.

Explanation:

  • According to the question, Griffith injected two strains of bacteria in the mice, which are:
  1. Living IIR strain which are incapable of causing any disease.
  2. Heat killed IIIS strain that can cause a disease.
  • Inside the injected mice,the heat killed IIIS (disease-causing) strain of the bacteria releases a factor that was not affected by heat.
  • This factor was taken up by the living IIR (not disease causing) bacteria. This caused it to get transformed from the non-disease causing IIR strain to the disease causing IIIS strain.
  • After the process of transformation, the disease causing IIIS strain causes pneumonia in the mice and hence kills it.
  • This factor is now known to be the DNA or Deoxyribonucleic Acid.

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers that donate their electrons to the electron transport chain. The electrons ultimately
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers of the electron transport chain. NADH gives up its electrons starting from Complex I, which has a higher energy level compared to other complexes. Energy is given off to pump protons across the membrane by the time electrons are transferred to ComplexIII. More electrons are pumped across the membrane as electrons move to Complex IV. Because NADH commenced giving up its electrons from Complex I (higher energy level complex), more protons are pumped across the membrane gradient, which enables ATP synthase with more power to produce 3ATP molecules per NADH molecule.

On the other hand, 2 molecules of ATP are generated by FADH2 because it starts by giving up its electrons to ComplexII. It missed a chance to pump protons across the membrane when it passed Complex I. By the time the electrons reach Complex IV, less protons have been pumped. The lesser the protons to power ATP synthase, the lesser the ATP molecules produced.

The test results below indicate the presence of which nutrient? four test tubes A. monosaccharide B. polysaccharide C. protein D
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Q1. incomplete information given

Q2. Protein will be present so <u>test tube C.</u> Beef is a rich source of protein. Hence, the Biuret test will be relevant in this case since that is specific to detecting proteins.

Q3. Orange juice has ample amount of simple sugars (such as fructose, glucose), which are monosaccharides. So option A. Benedict test is required here.

Q4. Incomplete information provided

Q5. You need a certain kind of food that is rich in protein and simultaneously lacks fats. Here, skimmed milk is relevant - fat has been removed from the milk although protein is still present.
