What are the biological structures

Biology

Answer:Biological structures are able to adapt their growth to external mechanical stimuli and impacts. For example, when plants are under external loads, such as wind force and self-weight, the overloaded zones are reinforced by local growth acceleration and the unloaded zones stop growing or even shrink. Such phenomena are recorded in the annual rings of trees. Through his observation of the stems of spruce, K. Metzger, a German forester and author, realized that the final goal of the adaptive growth exhibited by biological structures over time is to achieve uniform stress distribution within them. He published his discovery in 1893.12 A team of scientists at Karlsruhe Research Centre adopted Metzger's observations and developed them to one single design rule: the axiom of uniform stress. The methods derived from this rule are simple and brutally successful like nature itself. An excellent account of the uniform-stress axiom and the optimization methods derived from it is given by Claus Mattheck in his book ‘Design in Nature’.13 The present study utilizes one of these methods, stress-induced material transformation (SMT), to optimize the cavity shape of dental restorations.

Answer:

Structural biology is a branch of molecular biology, biochemistry, and biophysics concerned with the molecular structure of biological macromolecules (especially proteins, made up of amino acids, RNA or DNA, made up of nucleotides, and membranes, made up of lipids), how they acquire the structures they have, and how alterations in their structures affect their function.

Lapatulllka [165]

Ans.

Gametophyte shows haploid, gamete-forming stage of plant's life cycle, while sporophyte shows diploid, spore-forming stage of plant's life cycle. In green algae, gametophytes and sporophytes are isomorphic (indistinguishable). In bryophytes, such as mosses, gametophyte shows dominant stage as it is most visible stage in their life-cycle. In vascular plants, such as ferns and seed plants, sporophytes show dominant stage.  

Thus, 'seed plants show briefest gametophyte stage' and 'mosses show longest gametophyte stage.'

1. The right answer is electron.

The electron, one of the components of the atom with neutrons and protons, is an elementary particle that has an elementary charge of negative sign. It is fundamental in chemistry because it participates in almost all types of chemical reactions and is an essential element of the bonds present in molecules.

The mass of an electron is 9.109 × 10-31 kg. The electron is about 2000 times lighter than the proton and neutron in the nucleus. The masses of the proton and the neutron are almost identical (10-27 kg).

2. The right answer is rapidly moving electrons.

The chemical, physical and electrical properties of an atom are related to the number of protons in the nucleus, which determines the number of electrons in the electron cloud.

The electron cloud is formed of electrons rotating at high speed around the nucleus in very complex trajectories. The electronic cloud is composed of electrons so its electric charge is always negative.

3. The right answer is Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons.

Isotopes (of a certain chemical element) are called the nuclides sharing the same number of protons (characteristic of this element), but having a different number of neutrons.

So what characterizes an element is the number of protons.

By extension, isotope is often called a nuclide characterized by its number of protons Z and its number of neutrons N (or its mass number A = Z + N), but without distinction regarding its spin or energy state.

4. The right answer is 8.

The atomic number (Z) is the term used in chemistry and physics to represent the number of protons in an atom. An atom can be schematized as a first approach by a compact agglomeration (atomic nucleus) of protons (p +) and neutrons (n), around which circulate electrons (e-).

5. The right answer is 18.

The relative atomic mass (or atomic weight) is the mass of an atom in particular or a chemical element in general (in which case an isotopic mixture is envisaged) expressed as a multiple of a reference elementary mass that wants to be close to that of a single nucleon. Indeed the mass of an atom is proportional in first approximation to the number of its nucleons (protons and neutrons), said number of mass.
