How does homeostasis work in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

The process of passing genetic material from one generation to the next depends completely on how cells grow and divide. To reproduce, a simple organism such as bacteria or yeast simply copies its DNA (through a process called replication) and splits in two. But organisms that reproduce sexually go through a complicated dance that includes mixing and matching strands of DNA (a process called recombination) and then reducing the amount of DNA in special sex cells to arrive at completely new genetic combinations for their offspring.

There are two basic kinds of organisms — ones with a nucleus and those without a nucleus (a compartment filled with DNA surrounded by a membrane called a nuclear envelope):

<span>Prokaryotes: Organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and therefore have DNA floating loosely in the liquid center of the cell. Prokaryotes divide, and thus reproduce, by simple mitosis.</span><span>Eukaryotes: Organisms that have a well-defined nucleus to house and protect the DNA. Eukaryotes divide by meiosis for sexual reproduction.</span>

Describe the typical principles used to identify topogenic sequences within proteins and how these principles can be used to dev
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Topogenic sequences share a series of structural features, and thereby computational algorithms can be used to predict these protein-membrane segments  

Explanation:

Topogenic sequences are protein segments formed by alpha-helical transmembrane domains, which are required for the insertion of membrane proteins. These domains share a series of well-defined features: they are composed of segments of about 20 hydrophobic amino-acid residues. In consequence, computational algorithms can be designed to identify protein patterns that fulfill these structural requirements (i.e. segments with a length of 20 residues, hydrophobic level, etc). The models assign a similarity threshold (threshold value) that predict if the similarity level of the protein pattern is good enough to detect a topogenic segment.

____ [38]

During Prophase chromosomes condense, and mitotic spindle form, chromosomes are copied, and the nuclear membrane disappears, spindle fibres pull the sister chromatids apart.

Explanation:

Prophase is divided into 2 sub-phases as early Prophase and late prophase.

Early Prophase:

In early prophase distinct thick chromosome like structures, Centrioles move to the opposite poles and, nuclear membrane disappears

By late prophase:

Astral rays and spindle fibres are formed. Spindle fibres attach to the chromosome. Contractions occur in the attachment and sister chromatids are pull apart towards the equator.

Metaphase will follow the prophase.

Which factors are responsible for high and low tides?
Vaselesa [24]
The following diagram shows how the moon causes tides on Earth: In this diagram, you can see that the moon's gravitational force pulls on water in the oceans so that there are "bulges" in the ocean on both sides of the planet. The moon pulls water toward it, and this causes the bulge toward the moon.
