Abundance of the different bases in the human genome. Results on the human genome published in Science (Science 291:1304-1350 [2

001]) indicate that the haploid human genome consists of 2.91 gigabase pairs (2.91 x 109 base pairs) and that 27% of the bases in human DNA are A. Calculate the number of A, T, G, and C residues in a typical human cell.

Answer:

A typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

T typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

G typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

C typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of human genome in pairs=2.91*10^9 base pair

Number of Human genome single bases=2*2.91*10^{9} =5.82*10^{9} bases

We know that human genome are diploid, Total Human genomes will bases will be 2* 5.82*10^{9}=1.164*10^{10} bases

Since A is 27%:

A typical Human cells=0.27*1.164*10^{10}

A typical Human Cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

The Number of T and A residues are same in human genome. So,

T typical Human cells=3.1428*10^9 residues.

Since A and T combined form 54% of human genome then G and C form 46% combined and 23% each.

G typical Human cells=0.23*1.164*10^{10}

G typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

The Number of G and C residues are same in human genome. So,

C typical Human cells=2.6772*10^{9} residues.

Heat moves from this source by convection and radiation
marta [7]

Answer:

In CONVECTION, heat energy is carried by the movement of particles of matter. In CONDUCTION, heat is transferred by particles vibrating. In RADIATION, heat is carried directly by electromagnetic waves. When a hot object touches a cool object, heat moves from the hot one to the cool one.

kupik [55]

Answer:

The protein is targeted to Golgi apparatus.

Explanation:

Protein targeting or sorting is a process by which synthesized proteins are transported to their appropriate localizations in the cell or outside it. Proteins can be targeted to the inner space of an organelle (such as Golgi apparatus or endoplasmic reticulum) or its membrane, plasma membrane, or to exterior of the cell via secretion.  

Usually, protein contains signal sequence on the N terminus that is involved in destination targeting.
