Synthesis of peptidoglycan-containing cell walls is affected by

Structure: unicellular organisms (single-celled), no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, genetic material usually composed of a single circular bacterial chromosome coiled up in a region of the cytoplasm

Function: metabolic functions are carried out in the bacterial cytoplasm

Replication: generally asexual (binary fission)

Explanation:

Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, i.e., unicellular organisms that do not have a cell nucleus nor any membrane-bound organelles . Generally, the genetic material is composed of a single DNA circular molecule (bacterial chromosome), which is localized in a specific region of the cytoplasm (nucleoid region). Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller than eukaryotic cells (0.1 - 5 μm in size). In bacteria, metabolic functions (i.e., growth and reproduction) occur in the cytoplasm. The most important process of reproduction in bacteria is binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction where a single bacterial cell divides into two. Bacteria can also exchange genetic material by sexual reproduction mechanisms (i.e., conjugation, transformation and transduction). The main strategy to prevent outbreaks caused by bacteria is to know the conditions where they grow and reproduce. For example, Salmonella is a genus of infectious bacteria that may cause an outbreak. Salmonella infection may be prevented by eliminating conditions where they can multiply. Measures to prevent Salmonella outbreaks include cook food thoroughly (do not eat raw eggs or raw beef), refrigerate foods, wash hands, etc.

Eighty percent of nephrons in the human kidney are located in the ________ and have short nephron loops.

lesantik [10]

answer:

renal cortex.

explanation:

eighty - five percent of nephrons are cortical nephrons,

deep in the renal cortex; the remaining 15 percent are

juxtamedullary nephrons, which lie in the renal cortex

close to the renal medulla.

Which reactions in glycolysis are physiologically irreversible?

bagirrra123 [75]

The reactions of glycolysis are made up of ten steps, out of the ten step three are irreversible, this is because, these reactions have large negative free energies The three steps that are irreversible are:
1. Phosphorylation of glucose.
2. Phosphorylation of glucose 6 phosphate and
3. Transfer of phosphate from phosphoenolpyruvate to ADP.
