The relationship between steroid hormone, estrogen and the peptide hormone, insulin, is being investigated. In order to quantify

the levels of each of these hormones, tissue samples were homogenized then placed in a mixture of 2:1 hexane/water. What's the expected results from this extraction method?
a. estrogen would be in the hexane phase; insulin would be in the aqueous phase
b. both estrogen and insulin would be in the aqueous phase
c. insulin would be in the hexane phase; estrogen would be in the aqueous phase
d. both estrogen and insulin would be in the hexane phase

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Estrogen hormone is important for the regulation of the female menstrual cycle and their growth and development. Insulin is an important hormone that regulates the blood glucose level.

The hormones insulin and estrogen is placed in the mixture of 2:1 hexane/water. Insulin is hydrophilic molecule and can easily dissolce in water. Estrogen is a hydrophobic molecules and easily dissolve in hexane.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

What is the indicator we are using in this titration?

a deep blue indicator

Explanation:

What is the indicator we are using in this titration?

a deep blue indicator

the purpose of grinding the spirulina is to be able to break the cell into smaller particles that can dissolve well in a solution.

when powder spirulina is mixed with silica the cells are easily break even.

Should the ground silica and spirulina mixture be suspended in deionized water, exhibit water, or buffer? Why?

ground silica and spirulina mixture be suspended in deionized water because its dissolved and mixed well in water than any other solvent.

What is the color of the folded phytobilliprotein with the bound cofactor?

A blue color is observed when phytobilliprotein is folded.

How do you expect it to change as you add acid or base?

when a base solvent is use for the solution of silica and spirulina (e.g of base NaOH) is used, the colour obseved will be pale yellow or green color.

when a acidic solvent is use for the solution of silica and spirulina (e.g of base HCL) is used, the colour obseved will be colorless solution.

When a base and acidic solvent is used, it causes a changed in the charge state of the protein and changes the interaction thereby causing unfolding.
