bacteria in food can be killed by many means such as:
a) Pickling. for example food is pickled as bacteria cannot live in very acidic conditions.
b) Boiling. boiling water or liquids can help kill bacteria present in them.
c) Using preservatives can also help
d) Immersing food in salt or sugar solutions is also an other way
Answer:
The statement is FALSE.
Explanation:
In genetics, expressivity refers to the amount of variation in a non binary phenotype across individuals, who are carrying a specific genotype. Scientists believed that variable expressivity is controlled by different factors such as environment, genetics and lifestyle choice. An example of expressivity is a series of blue eye color that has different shades of blue. Thus, expressivity is not about balanced genetic output but varied genetic expression.
Answer:
thermodynamically unstable but kinetically stable.
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
Under physiological conditions, peptide bond formation and degradation both require enzymes, but only formation requires coupling to GTP hydrolysis. Based on this information, peptide bonds under physiological conditions are:
A. both thermodynamically and kinetically stable.
B.thermodynamically unstable but kinetically stable.
C.thermodynamically stable but kinetically unstable.
D. both thermodynamically and kinetically unstable.
- The term thermodynamically unstable refers to the fact that the peptide bonds are prone to breakage under physiological conditions.
- The reason why one can conclude the thermodynamic instability of the peptide bonds under physiological condition is that there is a need for a source of energy i.e. GTP hydrolysis for the formation of the peptide bond.
- The fact that the breakage of peptide does not require any input of energy but the only formation does confirms the fact that under physiological conditions they are thermodynamically unstable.
- Even though they are thermodynamically unstable, they are kinetically stable because both the formation and degradation require enzymes.
- The function of enzymes is to decrease the activation energy and hence, increase the rate of reaction. This means that if the enzymes are absent the rate of breakage of peptide bonds would be really slow this points out to the fact that they are kinetically stable under physiological conditions.
c. because only male repoduce sperm
