Genes are segments of DNA found on a chromosome that determine the inheritance of a particular trait. They are responsible for the inherited characteristics that distinguish one individual from another. Chromosomes. Chromosomes are structures found in the nucleus of a cell that contains the genetic information (DNA).

In biology, a gene is a basic unit of heredity and a sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that encodes the synthesis of a gene product, either RNA or protein. During gene expression, the DNA is first copied into RNA.

Vhy do we treat the cells with soap when conducting DNA extraction?​
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Dish soap "cuts through grease" because it actually breaks down those greasy molecules. Now, the molecules that make the membranes around cells and the nucleus (which holds DNA) are lipids. So when dish soap is added, the cell membrane and the nuclei are broken apart, releasing the DNA.

Use mathematical representations to trace the transfer of matter and energy from one organism to another.
uranmaximum [27]

Transfer = 10/100 of total energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy and matter is transferred from one organism to another by the process of food chain and food web. In food chain the organism of higher trophic level feeds on the organisms of lower trophic level. On feeding only 10% of the energy gets transferred to the organism of higher trophic level while the rest are being used in the metabolic processes and are produced as heat. This is called as ten percent energy transfer rule.

The mathematical representation of the transfer of energy is given as

Transfer = 10/100 of total energy.

What can you do to your models of starch and of a polypeptide chain in a protein to make them more accurate?
Pepsi [2]

Polypeptids

A polypeptide is a linear chain (without ramifications) of aminoacids linked by peptidic-bonds. We speak of a polypeptide when the chain contains between 10 and 100 amino acids. Above 100 amino acids are generally referred to as protein.

Among them, multicyclic peptides, phosphorylated peptides or those incorporating non-peptide bonds or conjugated peptides.


Starch

Starch is a mixture of two homopolymers, amylose and amylopectin


* Amylose, slightly branched with short branches and a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 1,000,000 Dalton (600 to 1000 glucose molecules).


* amylopectin or isoamylose, a branched molecule with long branches every 24 to 30 glucose units via α (1-6) bonds. Its molecular weight can range from 1,000,000 to 100,000,000 Dalton (between 10,000 and 100,000 glucose units).


To summarize the structure of the polypeptides is still linear, but the structure of the starch has ramifications.
