Extra credit. An emerging strain of the fungus Candida (C. auris) is able to cause serious infections in humans because it overe

xpresses a heat shock (chaperone) protein. Most Candida species do not grow well at body temperature and don't cause serious disease. Can you think of some ways that the overexpression of this heat shock protein allows this fungus to cause deadly infections

Answer:

The correct answer is - explained below.

Explanation:

Heat shock proteins can help the protein to get back its natural or native form from the misfolded form and if not possible then degrade it, Therefore it is evident that fungi can grow in stress conditions such as heat in the host's environment with help of such overexpressed chaperons which refolds the protein affected in the process.

C. Auris most of the time does not respond to frequently used antifungals, due to overexpressed chaperons.

What two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration? * H2O and CO2 H2O and C6H12O6 CO2 and C6H12O6 ATP and CO2
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The two compounds that correspond to waste products of cellular respiration are H₂O and CO₂.

Explanation:

The cellular metabolic waste products, specifically from cellular respiration are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), from the oxidation of glucose into energy.

The process of <u>cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions</u> where, from a glucose molecule, energy is obtained in the form of ATP molecules.

Obtaining H₂O and CO₂ from glucose can be summarized with the schematic reaction:

                                 <em>C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂</em>

This summary indicates that a glucose molecule, when oxidized, produces as waste 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide. To reach this process all the reactions of the oxidative phosphorylation occur and 24 molecules of ATP are obtained for each molecule of glucose.

For the other options it is important to mention that:

  • <em><u>C₆H₁₂O₆</u></em><em> is the substrate from which cellular respiration takes place. </em>
  • <em><u>ATP </u></em><em>is the final product of cellular respiration, translated into energy to be used by the cell.</em>

What might the shape of the skull and the supraorbital height tell us about each species?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: The shape of the skull and the supraorbital height tell us the following about each species-

  • It can tell us about the intelligence of species and what all senses they were dependent upon for their survival
  • Most of the species possess similar skulls as mostly their structures are  oval shaped, sloped or round shaped.
  • Species have different food habits that is determined by the teeth, which vary from long and dull to short and dull.
  • Variation in teeth and face shapes could also be due to different geological locations.
  • In particular, the foramen magnum be located where the spine connects can be attributed to how the species gathered food through hunting and what kind of food they sought after.
  • Overall, the shape and the supraorbital height of each skull informs us the advantages and disadvantages each species had in its ecosystem.
  • It also tells what probable causes of death would be when the species died.
