An antibody made against the antigen tetanus toxoid (tt) reacts with it even when the tt is denatured by disrupting all disulfid

e bonds. Another antibody against tt fails to react when the tt is similarly denatured. The most likely explanation can be stated as follows:

Answer;

-The first antibody is specific for the primary amino acid sequence of TT, whereas the second is specific for conformational determinants.

Explanation;

-Antigen-antibody reaction, is a specific chemical interaction between antibodies produced by B cells of the white blood cells and antigens during immune reaction.The specificity of the binding is due to specific chemical constitution of each antibody.

-The amino acid sequence in the tips of the "Y" varies greatly among different antibodies. This variable region, composed of 110-130 amino acids, give the antibody its specificity for binding antigen. The variable region includes the ends of the light and heavy chains.

When NADH is the electron donor to the respiratory chain, 2.5 ATP are formed, but when FADH2 is the electron donor, only 1.5 ATP
Fofino [41]

Answer:NADH donates it electron to complex I a higher energy level than other complexes while FADH donates it electron to complex II a lower energy complex.

Explanation:

Both NADH and FADH are shuttle of high energy electrons originally extracted from food into the inner mitochondrial membrane.

NADH donate it electron to a flavoprotein consisting of FMN prosthetic group and an iron-sulphur protein in ETC complex-I. Two electrons and one hydrogen ion are are transferred from NADH to the flavin prosthetic group of the enzyme.

While the electrons from FADH2 enters the ETC (electron transport chain) at the level of co-enzyme Q (complex II). This step does not librate enough energy to act as a proton pump.

So NADH produces 2.5 ATP during the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation because it donates its electron to Complex I, which pump more electrons across the membrane than other complexes.

Which of the following may not have been possible without the presence of ozone in the atmosphere?
Basile [38]

Answer: Option A) Oxygen may not have been able to accumulate in the atmosphere

Explanation:

Ozone, O3, is an allotrope of oxygen having three atoms in the molecule instead of the usual two present in molecular oxygen. Ozone is generated from oxygen, and is the only form in which oxygen can exist in the atmosphere.

30. One cause of muscle soreness is
xenn [34]

Answer:

c. lactic acid fermentation

Explanation:

If we did alcoholic fermentation, working out would make us feel drunk, not sore. This is only done by yeasts (a type of fungus) and bacteria. Glycolysis is simply an anaerobic process that occurs with fermentation and also regular aerobic respiration. It doesn't cause any soreness on its own. The Krebs cycle is the second major part to cellular respiration; it produces 6 NADH's, 2 FADH2's, 4 CO2's and 2 ATP; it's not involved in creating any soreness, as cell respiration does not create soreness. That leaves lactic acid fermentation, which we, bacteria, yeasts, and other organisms do. This is what we do when we run out of ample oxygen while doing some strenuous activity. Glycolysis is done with it. Glycolysis, however, relies on NAD+ to create ATP we need to maintain the same level of activity, lactic acid is produced as it accepts the 2 electrons and [H+] NAD+  should accept.
