Correct matching of invertebrates and its characteristics are as follows:

Sponges are animals which have many cell but no mouth, muscles , heart or brain. They are sessile and can not move from place to place like other animals do, filter feeding animals with an asymmetrical body plan.

Cnidarians are the animals with radial symmetry and stinging cnidocyte cells. These animals consists a special cell cnida which functions in preying catch and defense. example- jellyfish, anemone.

Flatworms are the worm like animal which do not consist a body cavity or coelom. example- fluke and tapeworms.

Roundworms or threadworms are segmented worms that can live in water or land. They consist a body cavity and internal organs. examples- pinworms and hookworms.

Mollusks are the animals which consist mentle, foot and and sometimes a shell. example- octopus, squids.

Echinoderms are the animals which have radial symmetry and an endoskeleton made out of calcareous plate. These animals live only in marine environment.These animals lack circulatory and excretory systems.

Arthopods are the animals with jointed legs and an exoskeleton made out of chitin. example- spiders, shrimps and crabs.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Escherichia coli - Facultative anaerobe

Micrococcus luteus - Obligate aerobe

Clostridium sporogenes - Obligate anaerobe

Explanation:

In simple terms, obligate aerobes are organisms that require oxygen to grow and metabolize molecules such as fats and sugars to produce energy. Many animals fall under this category. Other examples are Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Micrococcus luteus.

Facultative anaerobes are organisms (usually bacteria) that can grow both in the presence and absence of oxygen. The most example of this are the Escherichia coli.

Obligate anaerobes are organisms (usually microorganisms) that cannot survive when exposed to normal atmospheric concentration of oxygen. Examples are Clostridium sporogenes and Clostridium botulinum.

A scientist runs an SDS-PAGE experiment two separate times on a protein with a molecular weight of 200 kD. For the first experim

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

This protein consists of 8 subunits of equal size linked by disulfide bonds

Explanation:

The sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE) is a technique widely used in molecular biology laboratories to separate proteins with molecular weights between 5 and 250 kDa. SDS is an anionic detergent used to denature proteins before electrophoresis. SDS can denature proteins by altering non-covalent bonds such as hydrogen, hydrophobic and ionic interactions, but they cannot cleave disulfide bonds. In this case, reducing agents (e.g., β-mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol) have been used to cleave disulfide bonds.

A random mutation occurs and the GGA codon is changed to GGU. What effect does this substitution have on the amino acid being ca

salantis [7]

Answer:

Instead of arginine codon, proline condon would be coded.

Explanation:

GCA encodes codes for glycine while on the other hand codon to GGU, GGC, or GGG encodes for glycine.

This substitution will lead to generation of complementary code “Proline” in the complementary mRNA or DNA strand.

The codon CCT, CCC, CCA, CCG encodes for proline. If this mutation would not have occurred then Arginine would have been encoded in the complementary codon with base structure of CGT, CGC, CGA, CGG

why would having both polar and nonpolar properties in a protective boundary be advantageous for the cell?

Reika [66]

Explanation:

The polar nature of the membrane’s surface can attract polar molecules, where they can later be transported through various mechanisms. Also, the non-polar region of the membrane allows for the movement of small non-polar molecules across the membrane’s interior, while preventing the movement of polar molecules, thus maintaining the cell’s composition of solutes and other substances by limiting their movement.

Further explanation:

Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrophobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backbone) with up to 36 carbons. Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties i.e. they are amphiphilic. Via diffusion, small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds.

Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer, this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins; these allow large molecules called solutes (including essential biomolecules) to cross the membrane.
