What is wrong with a bacterial cell if it cannot make protein

Biology

ivann1987 [24]3 years ago

There are a variety of points in the transcriptional chain at which it is possible to disrupt protein synthesis in bacteria. Let’s enumerate just a few:

<span>There’s the initial point where DNA is transcribed into mRNA;<span>there’s the point where mRNA binds to the Ribosome complex;</span>there’s the point where tRNA-aminoacyl pair binds to the Ribosome according to the current codon being “read out” in the mRNA;there’s the point where the aminoacid transported by the tRNA is transferred to the growing protein chain; andthere’s the point where the protein synthesis is determined complete, and the Ribosome disengages and releases the newly-synthesized peptide chain.</span>

In each of these stages (and in some other, more subtle phases) there are possible points of disruption and there are specific disruptors; some of which are indicated in the aboveProtein synthesis inhibitor article.

Note, by the way, that the Ribosomes of Prokaryotes (bacteria) and Eukaryotes (cells with nuclei) aren’t identical, and therefore the inhibitors/disruptors that work for one type of cell may not (and usually don’t) work on the other type. That’s why we can take antibiotics targeted at bacteria with little to no fear of them interfering with our eukaryotic cells’ functions.

(This is a simplified, somewhat hand-wavy response. There is a lot more to say, mainly because biological systems are anything but simple. Nevertheless this should be enough to get you started in the general direction.)

Answer:

c. Acclimatization

Explanation:

<u>Acclimatization</u> : Various physiological readjustments and compensatory mechanisms in body that reduces the effects of hypoxia in permanent residents at high altitude. These are basically the respiratory and hematopoetic adjustments to long-term move to high altitude.

As the Chum Salmon (oncorhynchus keta) are born in freshwater water constantly diffuses into the body and ions are lost from the body while in the sea water, they lose water.

As alot of changes are occrun in the cells of the gills of chum salmon, that is acclimatization as various physiological readjustments are being made.
