Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

It have been shown that domestic  turkeys require about 13.6 grams of food per pound of body weight each day to sustain weight. A gobbler is a male turkey.

The food consumed by a male turkey that is 17.5 lbs = 13.6 grams of food per pound * 17.5 pound = 238 grams.

7 gobblers = 7 male turkeys, hence:

The food consumed by 7 gobblers = 238 grams * 7 = 1666 grams

Nady [450]
Kelp is very sensitive to temperature change. Placing the plant near the window and exposing it to direct sunlight will result in continuous warming of the water in which the kelp plant is growing. Research has shown that kelp plant degrades very quickly when temperature increases due to tissue loss.

Describe the effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases is that it binds to the RNA polymerases, and reduces the process of translocation which is essential for RNA synthesis that is required for RNA polymerases elongation.

Explanation:

Amanitin is a peptide that is cyclic in nature. It is repelled by water thereby making it an hydrophobic peptide.

Amanitin is a toxic peptide that is found in Amanita ( a type of mushroom).

Alpha Amanitin in particular is the one that affects the elongation rate of RNA Polymerases in the body.

When Alpha Amanitin gets into the body system, it travels straight to the liver and due to its very strong affinity for RNA polymerases, it immediately attaches itself to them.

After the attachment, Alpha Amanitin, is disturbs the bridge helix found in RNA polymerase, preventing the hindering and slowing down the proces of translocation from happening.

Once translocation is hindered, RNA is no longer synthesized. Hence, the elongation of RNA polymerases is hindered and this results in severe illness in the body such as liver failure, cytolysis of the liver

What is considered the ultimate wonder of cells
Lapatulllka [165]
According to G.D Budhiraja in his book "The Natural Way of Healthy Aging," the ultimate wonder of cells is the egg cell. 

The egg cells is considered to be the ultimate wonder of cells because of its potential to form another human being. Once fertilized, the egg cell multiplies and grows, and "seems to know" just the right timing for certain processes to occur within the embryo or fetus. It seems to know when certain hormones should be produced, when it should implant in the uterus, and when the hands, legs, feet, hair, and other parts of the embryo and fetus should grow.
