Answer: A protein domain is a region of the protein's polypeptide chain that is self-stabilizing and that folds
independently from the rest. Each domain forms a compact folded three-dimensional structure. Many proteins consist of several domains.
One domain may appear in a variety of different proteins. Molecular evolution uses domains as building blocks and these may be recombined in different arrangements to create proteins with different functions.
In general, domains vary in length from between about 50 amino acids up to 250 amino acids in length.
The shortest domains, such as zinc fingers, are stabilized by metal ions or disulfide bridges. Domains often form functional units, such as the calcium binding EF-hand domain of calmodulin.
Because they are independently stable, domains can be "swapped" by genetic engineering between one protein and another to make chimeric proteins.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Any drug sold in the supermarkets, convenient stores etc without prescriptions are called OTC-medication or over the counter drugs.
They are the group of drugs commonly abused by young adults. Recommendation by National Institute on Drug Abuse is that , any use of drug not related to medical purpose, but for mind-altering effects or arousal is regarded as an abuse. No doubt these drugs are obtained over the counter because they are very easy to get, very cheap and legalized by law to buy, thus easily accessible.
They drugs are high in contents which produces psychoactive effects when imbibed in over dose, and some may have damaging effects on the kidney and liver.
Other effects on the body physiology includes headaches, vomiting, nausea, seizures, tremors. etc.
DNA is copied during cell division
Answer:
Anabolism is the synthesis of complex molecules in living organisms from simpler ones together with the storage of energy.
Examples of anabolism: bone growth and mineralization, and muscle mass build-up.
Catabolism: the breakdown of complex molecules in living organisms to form simpler ones, together with the release of energy.
Examples of Catabolism: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, the breakdown of muscle protein in order to use amino acids as substrates for gluconeogenesis, the breakdown of fat in adipose tissue to fatty acids, and oxidative deamination of neurotransmitters by monoamine oxidase.
The organism would not have to find a partner in order to reproduce.
