"Cells in the lining of the stomach produce a protein called pepsinogen. When this protein is released into the chamber of the s
Sergio [31]

This is an example of Precursor gene regulation (protein translation) type of eukaryotic gene regulation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The source which breakdown proteins into smaller amino acid is pepsin and generated as top cells within stomach lining or membrane, responsible for pepsinogen emission inside stomach. It is represented as zymogen having an extra 44 amino acids linkage as its primary structure. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) releases this zymogen which is emitted from the parietal cells in the stomach lining.

Once food is consumed, the hormone gastrine and the vagus nerve cause the secretion of both pepsinogen and HCl from the stomach lining. Hydrochloric acid induces an acidic environment that allows pepsinogen to unfold in an autocatalytic manner and thus generates pepsin the active form.

Can you describe how the motion and relative positions of the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun affect tides?
Strike441 [17]
<span>"The moon is a major influence on the Earth’s tides, but the sun also generates considerable tidal forces. Solar tides are about half as large as lunar tides and are expressed as a variation of lunar tidal patterns, not as a separate set of tides. When the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment, the solar tide has an additive effect on the lunar tide, creating extra-high high tides, and very low, low tides."
