Answer:

C) Primary, tertiary and quaternary levels of protein structure

Explanation:

Primary structure; Covalent bond is present in form of peptide bond in the primary structuture of proteins. The amino acids are held together in the polypeptide chain by peptide bond.

Tertiary structure; Disulfide bonds are present between cysteine amino acids, that keeps the parts of polypeptide chain strongly attached to one another.

Quaternary structure; The Quaternary structure of protein is held together by hydrophobic interaction and disulfide bonds.

Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.

a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection

d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule

Answer:

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

Explanation:

Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.

Which hormone uses a second messenger mechanism? testosterone estrogen norepinephrine cortisol none of these choices?
jeka94

<span>Norepinephrine uses the Second Messenger System, which means, cells signal to each other what molecules have been released that will trigger a physiological reaction. </span>

<span>
This phenomenon is activated after the ligand  (ion or molecule) is bonded to its receptor (protein molecule), creating a variation that causes a chain-reaction, that will finally activate the Second Messenger. The latter will activate intercellular molecules that will be able to control the cell’s activity. </span>

What role do receptor sites play in drug activity? What role do receptor sites play in drug activity? The receptor site removes
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: The receptor site is the location that a drug binds to, altering the function of a biomolecule.

Explanation:

The drug receptors site, are the sites where the sites where the drug molecules bind.  Basically, a low number of receptors exists and the extent to which the molecules occupy their sites differ with the concentration of drug.  The receptor site changes the conformation and function of the binding molecule of the drug.
