The cytoplasm of a cell is at ph7 and the interior of an organelle is ph8

Biology

EastWind [94]3 years ago
5 0

A pH=-log(10)[H+], from this formula we can deduct that when the number of protons is higher the pH is lower and when the number of protons is lower the pH is higher. This means there are more hydrogen ions in the cytoplasm compared to the inside of an organelle.

B Hydrogen ions are very small particles so they can easily diffuse through the plasma membrane inside the cytoplasm, resulting in a higher number of protons and a lower pH. Organelle membranes have a lower permeability for hydrogen protons so the pH is higher.

Genes a, b, and c are known to be in that linear order in an organism. A testcross is done that yields 20 double crossover proge
larisa [96]

Answer:

Explanation:

The observed frequency of the double crossovers (DCOs) is 20/1000, or 0.02. If there is no interference then this will be the same as the expected, which is just the product of the single crossover frequencies, that is, SCO frequency (a-b) x SCO freq. (b-c) = 0.02.

(a) Any combination of map distances whose product (a-b) x (b-c) = 0.02 is possible. However, three are most likely:

a 20 mu b 10 mu c

a 10 mu b 20 mu c

a 14.14 mu b 14.14 mu c

(b) The distances would be exactly the same.

(c) The expected number of DCO progeny would be 17.

Which two cellular organelles in eukaryotes have both electron transport systems and chemiosmotic mechanisms?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Mitochondria and the chloroplast

Explanation:

Electron transport refers to the transfer of of electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via a reduction-oxidation reaction.  

In the mitochondria the process is called Oxidative phosphorylation whereas in the Chloroplast it is called Photo-phosphorylation since it utilizes light.

Chemiosmotic mechanisms allow the movement of ions across a semi-permeable membrane down their electrochemical gradient.

In both mitochondria and chloroplast,have these mechanisms for the production of ATP .

A(n) _____ in a molecule influences the way that a molecule reacts.
vitfil [10]

The correct answer is option B, that is, functional group.  

A functional group refers to a part of a molecule, which is a classified/recognizable group of bound atoms. The functional group provides the molecule with its characteristics, in spite of what molecule comprises it, they are the centers of chemical reactivity. The functional groups in a molecule require to be determined when naming.
