<span>Of SiF4 and SiBr4, the atom SiF4 is more polar. This is because the cation of both molecules are Silicon, but the anions of each are different. In SiF4, the anion is Fluorine, which is more electronegative than the Bromine in SiBr4, which creates a larger dipole, which results in a more polar molecule.</span>
I would think of a unicellular organism or a plant, but I'm not too sure on this one, Just trying to help :)
Answer:
Frederick Griffith was the first scientist who discovered that cell contains some components that can be transferred to another cell and cause a permanent change(transformation) in the new cell.
To prove this he performed an experiment in which he took two strains of <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> which contain one rough strain and one smooth strain. Rough strain was non-virulent strain and smooth strain was virulent strain.
So he injected smooth and rough strain in mice and saw that mice die when virulent strain is injected and survive when non-virulent strain is injected. Then he injected heat killed virulent strain in which mice survived.
Then he added remain of heat killed bacteria with live smooth strain of bacteria and infected the mice and saw that the mice was killed by non-virulent smooth strain of streptococcus.
After this experiment he concluded that cells contain some component later identified as DNA which can be transferred to new population of cells and transform these new cells.
Answer:
Disulfide linkage/bond
Explanation:
The tertiary and quarternary structure of the protein is stabilized by Disulfide linkage which is formed between two thiol groups in the protein. 2-mercaptoethanol is a reducing agent that breaks this disulfide bond.
A protein becomes denature when it loses its native configuration and becomes inactive. So as 2-mercaptoethanol breaks disulfide bond in protein it looses its native configuration and becomes denatured. 2-mercaptoethanol is used in SDS-PAGE to separate protein subunits. Therefore the correct answer is Disulfide linkage/bond.
