Maurinko [17]2 years ago

<span>Mitosis is a cell division in which one diploid cell divides into two identical diploid cells. On the other hand, a</span> cell division which results in the reduction of chromosome number by half  in daughter cells is called meiosis. Meiosis consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. After meiosis I, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half and the result is two haploid cells. Meiosis II is actually analogous to mitosis. So, in meiosis II, haploid cell divides into two identical haploid cells. In total, meiosis results in four haploid cells while mitosis results in two diploid cells.

Can enzymes be reused
Masja [62]

If denaturation occurs (extreme temperature change or pH changes), the enzyme will not be reusable! The structure of the enzymes are not changed. As a result of this, enzymes will be used again and again to bind onto another substrate molecule and catalyze the reaction once again.

What results from the addition or deletion of nucleotides in any number except a multiple of 3?
eimsori [14]
Addition or deletion of nucleotides in any number besides 3 results in a "frame-shift mutation."
This is because every 3 nucleotides of DNA/mRNA exons codes for a single amino acid in the synthesis of a protein. This triplet codon theory means that if 3 nucleotides are added or deleted then an amino acid will be added or lost, but subsequent codons and amino acids will still be read correctly.
However, if any number of nucleotides other than 3 are added or removed, then the codons following the mutation will be out of "sync," in terms of the reading order.
Hence it is called a frame-shift mutation because it shift the reading frame when translating nucleic acids into proteins. Frame shifts will lead to the wrong amino acids being adding in the wrong order for the rest of the code after the mutation.

The cells in this part of a plant form long, vertical tubes. What is the most
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The cells present in the stem are part of the xylem and phloem conductive tissues. They are characterized by being elongated and in tubular form because they transport the substances, the xylem transports  water and  inorganic mineral sales that the root absorbs from the soil. The phloem is responsible for transporting substances synthesized in photosynthesis.

Its tubular and elongated shape facilitates the transport of these substances

Explain the cellular functions that occur when antibiotics attack a bacteria cell.
Alex73 [517]
That would be A.

Most antibiotics that are used for gram positive bacteria target the peptidoglycan cell wall, but the ones for gram negative bacteria are more advanced and specific and target the cell membrane and alter the cell’s function(processes of proteins and dna/gene expression).
