Answer:

Condensation reaction

Explanation:

Covalent peptide bond is formed between two amino acids. It is formed by condensation reaction which is also called as dehydration synthesis reaction. One molecule's carboxyl group reacts with other molecule's amino group releasing a water molecule. This CO-NH bond is called as peptide bond or amide bond and an amide molecule is formed as a result.

An amide bond shows resonance which allows its stabilization and versatility of molecule in different environment. The amino acids link together via condensation reaction to form larger polypeptide chains.

Which of the following pairs is mismatched? Select one: a. endoderm - bone b. mesoderm - muscle c. ectoderm - skin d. neuroectod
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: a. endoderm-bone

Explanation: In the context of embryonic development, bone tissue may arise from several precursor cell populations, such as the neural crest (some facial bones), lateral mesoderm (bones of the limbs, among others), and paraxial mesoderm (vertebrae and part of the skull). There is no evidence to suggest that any of the bony structures is derived from the endoderm germ layer.

Imagine a microbial cell that normally carries out aerobic respiration has encountered a low oxygen environment and may die if t
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

a. Oxygen performs an essential role in the mentioned microbial cell in a manner that it takes part in the procedure of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain, which eventually assists in the production of energy from food substrates and this generation of energy helps the cell to survive.  

In the existence of oxygen, sugar gets dissociated through glycolysis to generate pyruvate, which again in the existence of oxygen is transformed into acetyl CoA. This moves into the Krebs cycle and gets dissociated to water and carbon dioxide generating ATP through ETC. This generation of ATP helps the cell to survive.  

In low oxygen surrounding or in the absence of oxygen, some of the aerobic microbes can switch their respiratory pathway and carry on the process of fermentation and anaerobic respiration to produce energy and thrive. However, the mentioned microbial cell, which when it comes in contact with the low oxygen environment cannot carry out fermentation process and would die eventually.  

b. This organism can be classified as obligate aerobes as they always need oxygen and do not possess the tendency to carry out the process of anaerobic respiration or fermentation under the absence of oxygenic environment.
