Secondly, explain why energy is not just provided by the simple hydrolysis of ATP.

Answer:

The exergonic reaction of hydrolysis of ATP must be coupled to an endergonic reaction to perform work or to power other reactions.

Explanation:

ATP (adenosin triphosphate) is hydrolized to give ADP and releases energy as follows:

ATP + H₂O ⇆ ADP + Pi + energy

The released energy itself is not used to power biochemical reaction. In order to power other reactions, ATP hydrolysis- a energetically favorable reaction- is coupled to another energetically disfavorable reaction. The linking or coupling is performed through a shared intermediate, which is often a phosphorilated molecule. For example, in the formation reaction of sucrose from glucose and fructose, an intermediate is formated by the transfer of a phosphate group (Pi) provided by ATP hydrolysis. Then, the phosphorilated intermediate (glucose-Pi)- wich is unstable- reacts with fructose in a spontaneous reaction to give sucrose.

Sorry its a very long answer-
1.) Failure to maintain the rule of law
The government's repeated failures to bring levels of violent crime under control contributed to an environment which saw people resort to violence without fear of arrest or successful prosecution.
2.) Border control

3.) Corruption

4.) Employment

5.) Education
This has been government's biggest failure and carries much of the blame for the high unemployment levels. It is arguable whether current state education is in its totality any better than that under apartheid. Only 1% of black matriculants achieve a good HG maths pass.
The education system is a good example where policy failures in one area compounded those in another.
6.) Slowing economic growth
7.) Foreign policy

8.) Service delivery

9.) Race relations

LekaFEV [45]

The genetic code can be defined as a set of rules used to encode information from genetic material (DNA or RNA ) into proteins. There are sequences of nucleotide triplets, -codons which specify which amino acid will be added next during translation (protein synthesis). Genetic code consists of 64 codons and this means that some amino acids are specified by more than one codon.

Genetic code has a role to determine amino acid sequence of protein (primary structure of protein). Location and the function of all those synthesized proteins is determinated by regulatory genomic regions (gene regulatory codes).

Proteins perform a wide range of functions within organisms such as catalysing metabolic reactions, DNA replication, stimuli response, structure role, transport role. So, all the diversity of organisms on this planet is due to protein variety.
