IgorLugansk [536]

The given question is incomplete as the group of choices are missing, however, the group of choices are given as follows:

Select one

a. Protein consists partially of amine groups that are neutral as a result of protonation (of one H ion)

b.Protein contains deprotonated carboxylate groups, resulting in a negative charge

c. The carboxylate groups in protein act very much like carboxylic acid groups (-COOH), except that they are deprotonated

d. If the human body did not act like a buffer solution, each time you ingested an acid the carboxylate groups would protonate, causing the protein structure to disintegrate.

Answer:

The correct answer (incorrect statement) is : option C.

Explanation:

pH of blood should be remain 7.5 in order to make proteins of the body and blood intact and functional. Human protein have neutral amine group due to the protonation and negative carboxylate group due to the deprotonation.

carboxyl group behave like an acid and carboxylate group behave like a base due to the fact that Carboxylate group (-COO-) is conjugate base of Carboxyl group. Human body acts like buffer to prevent the protein from  disintegrate.

Thus, the correct answer is : option c.

Why is hamburger, of all meat, particularly vulnerable to bacterial contamination such as that caused by E. coli?
My name is Ann [436]
When cattle are slaughtered and processed, E. coli bacteria in their intestines can get on the meat. Ground beef combines meat from many different animals, increasing the risk of contamination. E. coli bacteria on a cow's udder or on milking equipment can get into raw milk or runoff from cattle farms can contaminate fields where fresh produce is grown. Certain vegetables, such as spinach and lettuce, are particularly vulnerable to this type of contamination.

Viruses that reproduce almost immediately after coming into contact with a host cell use which viral reproductive cycle?
Naddik [55]

The best answer is A.

The lytic cycle is considered the main cycle in viral replication. Once the viral DNA enters the cell, it transcribes itself into the host cell's messenger RNAs and uses them to direct the ribosomes.

The host cell's DNA is destroyed and the virus takes over the cell's metabolic activity and begins to use the cell's energy for its own propagation and within a short while, when the cell gets overcrowded with  the viral progeny, the original virus releases enzymes to break the cell wall. The cell wall bursts. This process is called lysis. The new viruses are then released.

A local recreation center has received funding to build a swimming pool. Prior to pool construction, engineers use computer mode
mario62 [17]

Answer:

D. Pool temperature

Explanation:

The dependent variable in an experiment is the variable that is measured or responds to another variable called the independent variable. The outcome of the dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable.

In this computer model, the engineers compare which of several pool designs require the least amount of energy to be heated. The TEMPERATURE at which each pool design is heated is dependent on the type of pool design used. Hence, POOL TEMPERATURE is the dependent variable. It is the variable being measured in response to the type of pool design used.
