The synthesis of the enzyme lipase would be classified as anabolic because A) the resulting enzyme can catalyze the breakdown of
puteri [66]

Answer:

B) energy is captured in the bonds linking amino acids that compose lipase.

Explanation:

Anabolic reactions are chemically defined as synthesis reactions in opposition to Catabolic reactions, in which a degradation of chemical compounds occurs. Thus, in anabolic transformations simpler reagents are used to produce more complex substances. In the particular case of the synthesis of a lipase, a number of amino acids are chemically bonded to form a polymerized structure, clearly chemically more complex, known as polypeptide.

An increase in chemical complexity always requires an investment of energy, considering that building a larger molecule implies bonding more reagents or precursor into the final product. Thus, the increase in the energy content of the product (in this case the lipase) when comparing to each precursor (individuals amino acids) will be reflected in the linking (covalent) bonds between amino acids. Of course, there is always a certain amount of energy that is lost as heat during any chemical transformation (not all the energy invested in the synthesis will be captured in the product).

The overall of all anabolic reaction which take place inside the cell is called anabolism, while the whole set degradation chemical reaction occurring within the cell is known as catabolism. Being said that, it is clear that anabolism and catabolism, when being considered jointly, conform the metabolism as a whole and coordinated cellular process.

The honeybee has 32 chromosomes in their somatic cells. They undergo meiosis but can
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer: 32 chromosomes, they are clones of the parent drone

Explanation:

The production of offspring drones without fertilization means that offspring that are produced are produced by mitosis, which results in daughter cells that are clones of the parent. They have the same amount of chromsomes as the parent drone, which is 32.

What is a negative feedback mechanism? Explain an example.
Semmy [17]

Answer: A negative feedback mechanism is a regulatory mechanism in which a stimulus causes an opposite output in order to maintain an ideal level of whatever is being regulated. Example: osmoregulation. A positive feedback mechanism is a process in which the end products of an action cause more of that action to occur in a feedback loop. Example: childbirth.
