Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The amount of light available to Chlorella culture might affect the growth dynamics of the alga <u>because the light is an important factor necessary for the synthesis of carbohydrates and other important molecules in the body of the organism.</u>

The process of synthesizing carbohydrates is termed photosynthesis and during this process, the energy of light is used to excite the photosystem of the chlorophyll of the organism, leading to the release of electrons whose energy is used to synthesize an energy molecule that is utilized in the latter part of the photosynthetic process. The entire process of photosynthesis can be summarised as an equation below:

            6CO_2 + 6H_2O + light --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2

<em>The manufactured carbohydrates act as food for the organism and are broken down during respiration to release energy necessary to drive metabolic processes that bring about growth and development.</em>

Hence, the amount of light is an important factor that might affect the growth dynamics of all green plants, including the Chlorella.

Disulfide bonds are important in determining and stabilizing protein structure. Which amino acid, if mutated, will affect the fo
elixir [45]

Answer:

c. cysteine

Explanation:

Cysteine is a non essential amino acid. It contains sulfur in form of thiol group. A disulfide bond or bridge is formed between two thiol groups. It is represented as S-S. It is formed by oxidation of two cysteine molecules. The resultant disulfide bond is called as cystine which connects two polypeptide chains.

Cysteine is the only amino acid capable of forming disulfide bridge. It stabilizes protein's globular structure and plays an important role in protein folding and stability. Cysteine is required for protein synthesis, metabolic processes and detoxification. It is the part of beta-keratin which is the main protein in nails, hair and skin. If cysteine is mutated, formation of disulfide bond will be affected.
