Phalloidin is a toxin from a toadstool (mushroom). You are studying actin dynamics and the effect of phalloidin. You add G-actin

and ATP to a test tube and allow the reaction to come to equilibrium. This produces the light scattering plot below. When you add phalloidin, what will happen to the line?

Answer:

Dissociation of actin subunits occurs.

Explanation:

When we add phalloidin to a solution containing G-actin, the phalloidin binds to actin filaments more tightly as compared to actin monomers which leads to a decrease in the constant rate of dissociation of actin subunits from the ends of the filament. This dissociation stabilizes the actin filaments through the prevention of filament depolymerization. So we can conclude that addition of phalloidin to actin leads to stabilizing of actin filaments.

What are the products of the light reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the calvin cycle?
suter [353]

Answer:

The correct answer is ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

During the light reaction, the light energy is absorbed by the chlorophyll pigment present in the thylakoid membrane which moves through different electron acceptors and allows the formation of NADPH and ATP.

This ATP and NADPH get utilized into the Calvin cycle during carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration steps. This utilization converts ATP and NADPH into ADP and NADP+. The energy released by them is used to fix carbon to produce organic compounds. Therefore the correct answer is ATP and NADPH.

If you start with 100 grams of radioactive carbon, and 50 grams remain after 5730 years, what is the half-life of the isotope?
frez [133]
The isotope has a half-life of 5730 years.

In 5730 years, the isotope (Carbon-14, to be more exact) will lose 50% of its mass, meaning that in 11460 years, 25 grams of Carbon-14 will remain.
