<span>A food preservation method in which microorganisms metabolize components of a food is called </span>fermentation.
When the food is going on fermentation, there are good bacteria over there that will inhibit other bacteria to grow on that food. Fermentation also able to made the pH more acid, making the area is not suitable for bacterial growth.
Answer:
The correct answer is: a pH 2 solution has a <u>10000 times</u> greater hydrogen ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.
Explanation:
The pH scale is a measurement used to describe the acidity of a solution, and this acidity is given by the concentration of H+ (hydrogen ion) in said substance. A solution with a greater concentration of H+, is more acid than a solution with a smaller concentration of H+ and, therefore, has a lower pH. Given that the pH scale is a negative logarithmic scale, a solution with a pH of 3 has a ten times greater H+ concentration than a solution with a pH of 4.
A pH 2 solution has 10 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 3 solution, 100 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 4 solution, 1000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 5 solution, and 10000 times more H+ ion concentration than a pH 6 solution.
The correct option is A.
The DNA from one specie differ from the DNA of another specie on the basis of their base ratio. The base ratio refers to the percentage of purine to pyrimidine in a DNA molecule. The base ratio is the one that is responsible for the variability that is observed in chromosomes from different species.
Answer:
The purine ring is built onto ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP for its de-novo nucleotide biosynthesis, while the ring structure of the pyrimidine bases are synthesized separately and then coupled to ribose-5-phosphate via the C-N glycosidic bond.
Explanation:
In the de novo synthesis of nucleotides, their metabolic precursors such as aminoacids, ribose-5-phosphate, CO₂ and NH₃ are used as starting materials.
In purine nucleotide synthesis, the ring structure is built up on ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP by addition of one or a few atoms one at a time starting with the amino group donated by glutamine until the first intermediate inosinate is synthesized.
In pyrimidine ring synthesis, orotate is first synthesized from carbamoyl phosphate and aspartate, and then is attached to ribose-5-phosphate of PRPP, before it is then converted to the common pyrimidine nucleotides starting from uridylate.
