List 4 targets of antibiotics.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: Antibiotics targets the synthesis of protein, nucleic acid, folate and cell wall.

1. Synthesis of protein; antibiotics binds to either 30s or 50s ribosomal subunits blocking the polypeptide from the exiting the tunnel thus inhibiting a full completion of protein expression or production.

2. Nucleic acid synthesis; Antibiotics also act by inhibiting genetic expression, DNA transcription and replication where DNA makes exact copies of itself, as well as RNA molecules preventing bacterial growth.

3. Cell wall synthesis; Inhibition of cell wall synthesis in microorganisms will prevent it from replication and growth.

4. Folate synthesis; Folic acid also known as vitamin B9 helps in DNA replication and cell division. Folate antagonists such as aminopterin kills bacteria by preventing folic acid production required for DNA replication.

Plasmodesmata can change in number, and when dilated can provide a passageway for A. macromolecules B. ribosomes C. chloroplasts
skelet666 [1.2K]

Plasmodesmata can change in number, and when dilated can provide a passageway macromolecules

Plasmodesmata are essential for the intercellular transfer of both big informational macromolecules like proteins and smaller signaling chemicals in plant cells.

  • Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined structures that offer a high-conductance, aqueous channel for the transportation of information in the form of chemicals and macromolecules, such as transcription factors, from cell to cell.
  • The intimate interaction of the plasma membrane with the endoplasmic reticulum results in the formation of plasmodesmata.
  • The degree to which a particular cell acts as an individual or as a component of the entire organism is determined by the distribution and unitary conductance of plasmodesmata as well as other positional variables that affect development.
