Which statement is an example of the chemical potential energy in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) being turned into work?

Biology

Answer:

The correct answer is option (C) "After splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane".

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic chemical molecule considered the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer, for the high level of energy that is released when ATP is breakdown into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). ATP provides energy to drive many processes in living cells. One example of how the chemical potential energy of this molecule is turned into work is that after splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane. The energy of the splitting of ATP into ADP will provide energy for the protein being able to change shape, resulting in pumping ions across a membrane.

A protein biochemist attempted to determine the amino acid sequence of a decapeptide. Use the results from the trypsin, chymotry
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The possible sequence of the decapeptide is Met-Val-Lys-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.

Explanation:

The cyanogen bromide cleaves the carboxyl end of Met (methionine and non-peptide). Trypsin cleaves on the C-terminal of Arg and Lys, however, not on the N-terminal of Pro, which signifies that Lys is the last amino acid in T2. Hence, Met-Val-Lys----. The middle part of the sequence can be predicted from the digestion done by chymotrypsin.

The chymotrypsin cleaves on the C terminal of Phe, Trp, Tyr, however, not on the N side of Pro. CT3 exhibit Lys, Met, Tyr, Val, as Met-Val and Tyr are the initial three amino acids, therefore, Tyr must be the fourth one. Now the sequence will be Met-Val-Lys-Tyr...

CT1 possesses Ala, Arg, Phe, Pro, as chymotrypsin cleaves the C side of the Phe, thus, the last amino acid should be Phe. Also, CT1 has Ala as the first amino acid. Also, trypsin does not cleave on the N-end of Pro. Thus, the sequence of CT1 strands will be Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.  

In CT2, chymotrypsin cleaves on the C-side of trp. Thus, the sequence of CT2 strands as Thr-Trp is found in the middle. Thus, the whole sequence of the decapeptide strand will be:  

Met-Val-Lys-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Ala-Arg-Pro-Phe.

Which carbohydrates are found in our genetic material?
Kisachek [45]

The carbohydrates found in our genetic material are the two sugars deoxyribose and ribose.

Carbohydrates are defined as organic compounds which occur in food and living tissue and include starch, sugars and cellulose. They are composed of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.

Deoxyribose is a sugar found in the structure of DNA, while the sugar ribose is found in the structure of RNA.

DNA is the molecule that carries the cell's genetic information while RNA is the molecule involved in synthesis of protein using the coded information received from DNA.

Both DNA and RNA are termed as the genetic molecules of life.
