adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as shifting.
These phenomena happen especially for liposoluble organism circulating in blood like drugs an hormones.
these molecules circulating blood can be divided into two forms :
The free-form: which is the active part, it circulates freely in the blood, but are easily metabolised.
The bound form: it can be bound to other molecules from the organisms depending on its affinity like proteins (albumin, glycoproteins). this form is not active but is prevented from metabolism.

Competition for bounding proteins can happen between two drugs for example. If they have a different degree of affinity for proteins, then the most affine will displace the less affine from the protein and bound it, and that is call shifting

The diagram above shows four steps in an attempt to investigate the release of gas during photosynthesis. Each setup was kept at

Lena [83]

Answer:

light

Explanation:

The above experiment is an investigation on the factors that affect photosynthesis which include carbon dioxide concentration,light intensity and quality,chlorophyll, water and temperature.Light was the independent variable. When the lant is moved to an area where light intensity is low, the rate of photosynthesis decreases.

After the experiment, oxygen gas is produced being a by-product of photosynthesis. Plants that are not adapted to an aquatic environment are not suitable for this experiment. The amount of carbon dioxide dissolved in water is low.

Why is it important to stain youngcultures of bacteria with the grain stain?

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Because older cultures of gram-positive bacteria tend to lose their ability to retain crystal-violet in the peptidoglycan of their cell walls and can be confused with gram-negative bacteria.

Explanation:

Gram staining is used to differentiate between two major groups of bacteria. Gram-positive and gram-negative, these bacteria differ in the amount of peptidoglycan in their cell walls. Gram-positive bacteria have a higher amount of peptidoglycan, which absorbs the violet crystal complex used in gram staining, staining them purple/violet. Old cultures of gram-positive bacteria tend to lose the ability to retain the violet crystal and are stained by safranine, staining them red/pink and appear to be gram-negative.

If a nucleotide lacking a hydroxyl group at the 3' end were added to a pcr reaction, what would be the outcome?

Verdich [7]

The correct answer is b. no additional nucleotides would be added to a growing strand containing that nucleotide.

Nucleotides without a 3’hydroxy group are called dideoxynucleotides (ddNTD). Dideoxynucleotides are inhibitors of DNA polymerase because after being added in PCR reaction no further nucleotides can be added as no phosphodiester bond can be created (usually 3' hydroxyl group of the previous nucleotide attaches to 5' phosphate of the current nucleotide).
