Biology
1 answer:
Mumz [18]3 years ago

Answer:

(1) glycerophospholipids ⟶ (C) lipids with phosphate-containing head groups

(2) cerebrosides ⟶ (D) fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) gangliosides ⟶ (B) anionic sphingolipids containing one or more sialic acid residues

(4) sphingolipids ⟶ (A) built on sphingosine

Explanation:

1) Choline (Fig. 1) is a glycerophospholipid. It is a glycerol-based lipid with a phosphate-containing head group.

(2) Galactosylceramide (Fig. 2) is a cerebroside. It contains a fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) Gangliosides are glycosphingolipids that contain sialic acid. GQ1b (Fig. 3) is one of the most abundant gangliosides in the human brain. The carboxyl group of the sialic acid is in the ionic form.

(4) Sphingomyelin (Fig. 4) is a sphingolipid. It is based on sphingosine, with a phosphocholine head and a fatty acid chain.

Sucrose and lactose are disaccharides that have the same chemical formula, C12H22O11. However, these sugars have different chara
d1i1m1o1n [39]
The answer is <span>Disaccharides are different in structure because they are not made up of the same monosaccharides, and this gives them different properties.

Both sucrose and lactose are disaccharides, however, they are made up different monosaccharides:
Disaccharide = monosaccharide + monosaccharide
Sucrose = glucose + fructose
Lactose = glucose + </span>galactose 

Since they have different structures, their characteristics and behaviour in chemical reactions must differ, too.

The two main processes by which plant cells absorb, release, and use energy are
alina1380 [7]
Plant cells do not perform respiration, so A,C, and D couldn't be correct but they don't digest either. so gain energy plants go through a light dependent reaction and the Calvin cycle which makes up photosynthesis.

Why describes the basic structure of a fatty acid?
dalvyx [7]

A long carbon and hydrogen chain and a carboxyl group.

In images of fatty acids (the monomers of Lipids), it is depicted as a long carbon chain with hydrogen on the ends and connected to them as well, yet on the clear side is the carboxyl group.

Hope this helps!

A single strand of DNA helix consists of 100 nitrogenous base pairs. On one strand, 36 of the bases are adenine and 24 are cytos
Katena32 [7]
Hello!

For the complementary strand of DNA, 36 Thymine bases and 24 Guanine bases would complete the proper base pairing. 

This is given by the concept of complementarity. A base in DNA has complementarity with only one other base. This complementarity is produced by hydrogen bond interactions.

For DNA, Adenine couples with Thymine and Cytosine couples with Guanine. So the 36 adenine bases will couple with 35 thymine bases, and so on. 

Have a nice day!

The relative location of four genes on a chromosome can be mapped from the following data on crossover frequencies Genes B and D
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

3. CABD

Explanation:

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.  The first gene map was constructed by the Alfred Sturtevant on the basis of recombinant produces or recombination frequency which was calculated.

The gene mapping refers to providing position to the genes on the chromosomes.

In the given question to construct gene map:

1. Look for the highest recombination frequency that is 50% between the C and D.

2. Now look for second-highest value and place the gene accordingly.

3.Similarly, place the genes in the decreasing order of recombination frequency and this will result that the sequence of the genes is- CABD.

Thus, Option-3 is correct.
