How is Cytochrome C, which is an important enzyme in cellular respiration, used to provide evidence for evolution

Biology

enot [183]3 years ago

Answer:

Cytochrome c is known to play a role in the electron transport chain and cell apoptosis. However, a recent study has shown that it can also act as an antioxidative enzyme in the mitochondria; and it does so by removing superoxide (O2–) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) from mitochondria.Therefore, not only is cytochrome c required in the mitochondria for cell respiration, but it is also needed in the mitochondria to limit the production of O2– and H2O2.

iren [92.7K]
The surface area to volume ratio of the cell decreases.
This decrease is due to the fact that the volume of the cell increases at a greater rate than the surface surrounding the cell, the cell membrane, increases. This change is also visible when we are blowing up a balloon. 

When considering the cell division, the ratio remains roughly the same. It is advantageous for the cell to preserve its surface area to volume ratio, since a higher ratio means that substances are able to diffuse into and out of the cell at a fairly higher rate.

Importance of protein in metabolism​
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Protein is also used for growth and repair. Amid all these necessary functions, proteins also hold the potential to serve as a metabolic fuel source. Proteins are not stored for later use, so excess proteins must be converted into glucose or triglycerides, and used to supply energy or build energy reserves.

Bacterium that causes tetanus is an anaerobe but it has a blank before anaerobe​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

maybe?

Explanation:

Characteristics of Clostridium Tetani

Clostridium tetani is an obligately anaerobic bacillus that is gram positive in fresh cultures but may have variable staining in older cultures or tissue samples.25 The complete genome of the organism has been sequenced, and its products were recently compared with other clostridia.26 During growth, the bacilli possess abundant flagella and are sluggishly motile. Two toxins, tetanospasmin (commonly called tetanus toxin) and tetanolysin, are produced during this phase. Tetanospasmin is encoded on a plasmid that is present in all toxigenic strains.

3. The mechanism in which organisms best suited for their environment survive<br> and reproduce.
lys-0071 [83]

The mechanism in which organisms best suited for their environment survive

and reproduce <u>NATURAL SELECTION.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

When individuals in a population compete for resources or live in their environment, the individuals with the slightest advantage over the others have an increased chance of reaching maturity and  reproducing to passing down their genes to the next generations.

Natural selection works on the variations of the population to ‘select’ the best alleles of genes in the population that offer an advantage in ‘survival for the fittest’. This how natural selection fits a population to its environment. The greater the variation within a population, the higher its capacity to adapt to changes in the environment.
