Answer:

Nucleic acids.

Explanation:

There are four types of macromolecules present in our body. They are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. All four biomolecules have different functions. Nucleic acids are DNA and RNA present in the chromosomes of the cell. They carry genetic information from generation to generation. It also plays an important role in cell division and cell growth. The cell division results in the growth of an organism.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

4. c. Deletion/ frameshift mutation

5. a. Tyr Tyr Asp Ser Gly

6. A frameshift occurred which altered the identity of the amino acids following the initiator 6. methionine, but not the length of protein Q.

Explanation:

4)

A single base pair at the first position of the Arg codon i.e. CGA has been deleted. Due to the deletion, the reading frame has shifted one nucleotide backwards, altering the amino acid sequence of the protein.

5)

The genomic DNA sequence is 5'-ATG ATA CTA AGG CCC-3'. Therefore, the complementary mRNA will be 5'-UAC UAU GAU UCC GGG-3'. According to the genetic code, this mRNA sequence encodes the following amino acid sequence: Tyr Tyr Asp Ser Gly

6)

The wild type DNA sequence is:

5'-ACUGUAAUGGAGUCAGAUGAUGCAUUAAGGAGAAAUUGAAAUAAA-3'

The mutant i.e. mRNA with the added G will be

5' ACUGUAAUGGGAGUCAGAUGAUGCAUUAAGGAGAAAUUGAAAUAAA-3'  

This is a single base pair insertion and frameshift mutation that shifts the reading frame one base pair forwards. The codon that was originally GAG coding for glutamic acid (Glu) gets converted to GGA that codes for glycine. Therefore, the amino acid sequence has been altered but the polypeptide chain will still have 13 amino acids.

A colleague gives you two tubes containing membrane fractions from an animal cell lysate. One tube contains the plasma membrane
OLga [1]

Answer:

B) a higher protein to lipid ratio.

Explanation:

The cell membrane of eukaryotes is known to be a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.  This implies that the first tube will contain a higher amount of lipids.

The membrane of the mitochondria is slightly different from the cell membrane in which its protein to lipid ratio is higher, containing a large number of integral proteins.
