What determines which electron donor and electron acceptor a given microbe uses in its anaerobic ETS? Choose one: A. Microbes us

e the most common donor available for their donor; the only acceptor that works with the ETS is oxygen. B. The available donors and acceptors will induce gene expression of their redox enzymes, thereby allowing their use. C. Each bacterium can only use one donor and one acceptor in their ETS. D. Microbes use the most common donors and acceptors available.

Answer:

B. The available donors and acceptors will induce gene expression of their redox enzymes, thereby allowing their use

Explanation:

Electron transport chain is the important stage of cellular respiration where the electron is donated by certain redox molecules.

The ETC takes place in both the aerobic and anaerobic type of respiration wherein the aerobic respiration, oxygen is used as the electron acceptor whereas in the anaerobic respiration some other molecules like sulfate and nitrate are used.

In anaerobic respiration, the type of electron donors and the donor-acceptor molecules determine the fate of the chain as these molecules act as an inducer of the genes of redox enzymes and the genes for the enzymes are expressed.

Thus, Option-B is correct.

Which organism is NOT made up of 1or more eukaryotic cells?
nalin [4]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Methanogens are prokaryotes and therefore have prokaryotic cells. They are single-celled archaea. They are found in hypoxic conditions like the first stomach of ruminants where they digest molecules like cellulose and produce methane as a byproduct. The rest are composed of eukaryotic cells which are much larger than prokaryotic cells and their organelles are membrane-bound (unlike prokaryotes).

Classify each picture as Carbohydrates or Lipids
stepan [7]

Answer:

1. Lipids

2. Carbohydrate

3. Lipids

4. Carbohydrate

5. Lipids

6. Lipids

7. Carbohydrate

Explanation:

Lipids and carbohydrates are two of the four major biological molecules (the other two being proteins and nucleic acids). They (lipids and carbohydrates) are both long chains composed of elements: carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O).

Lipids called triglycerides are majorly made up of building block fatty acids (long hydrocarbon chains with carboxylic acid) and glycerol ( an hydrocarbon made up of three hydroxyll groups).

Carbohydrates, on the other hand, are made up of long chains of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with aldehyde or ketone functional group. They are composed of monosaccharide building blocks (also called simple sugars) with general formula CH20(n).

Based on the structural composition of lipids and carbohydrates, structures 1,3,5 and 6 are lipids while 2, 4 and 7 are carbohydrates.

Individuals producing an abnormal form of the extracellular matrix protein, fibrillin, is a result of ______.
erastova [34]

Answer:

Indivisuals with producing an abnormal form of extracellular protein fibrillin are suffering from Marfan syndrome ehich is caused by genetic mutation in the FBN1 gene.

Explanation:

Gene mutations in FBN1 gene results in the production of an abnormal extracellular matrix fibrillin-1 protein that cannot function properly. These gene mutations basically reduce the amount of fibrillin-1 produced by the cell, alter the structure of fibrillin-1, or causes the impairment of the transport of fibrillin-1 out of the cell.

As a result, protein is poorly incorporated into extracellular matrix. Hence, indivisuals with Marfan syndrome present following symptoms

Tall stature.

Disproportionately long arms, legs and fingers.

Sternum either protrudes outward or dips inward.

Arched palate and crowded teeth.

Heart murmurs.

Extreme nearsightedness.

Elias conducted an experiment about the effects of exercise on the heart rate of teenagers. Before morning basketball practice,
padilas [110]

The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:

He needs to select a more representative sample.

Explanation:

Choosing students from the basketball team for the sample he uses on a study of heart rates and exercise will be a biased sample.  This is because students on the basketball team are potentially healthier than other students, which means that exercise will not have a large an effect on their heart rate as it would if they were not as healthy and not as physically fit.

In order to reduce the amount of bias, he should choose students from different groups throughout the school.
