Deb is studying the difference between 2 types of soil. She notices that her plants grow more when they have additional nitrogen
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The molecule, which the plant is most likely synthesizing using the extra nitrogen is PROTEIN.

Plants and animals do not have the capacity to use atmospheric nitrogen as nutrient. Atmospheric nitrogen has to be converted to forms that are usable by plants and animals before they can utilize it. Nitrogen fixing bacteria are the ones that are responsible for converting atmospheric nitrogen to the forms such as nitrate and ammonium, which can be used by plants. Animals get their own portion of nitrogen when they eat plants or other animals. Nitrate is the form of nitrogen that is mostly used by plants. Excess ammonium in plants are usually used directly to synthesize proteins. Nitrogen is a very important component of chlorophyll, which is essential for photosynthesis. Nitrogen is also found in the genetic materials of plants and it is needed for their growth and development.  Animals used nitrogen to synthesize proteins, nucleic acid and other biological compounds that contain nitrogen.

An enzyme that can bind to and break apart molecules of lactose should also be able to bind: a. fatty acids. b. amino acids. c.
Airida [17]

Answer: Option E) None of the above is true; this enzyme could bind none of these.

Explanation:

Lactose is a dissacharide composed of glucose and galactose. Hence, the enzyme lactase break down lactose into its simple sugar constituents.

However, lactase cannot bind nor break down amino acids, starch (with only glucose units) or sucrose (with two glucose units) because their constituent molecules differ markedly from that of lactose.

Thus, the enzyme lactase could bind with none of the options provided except lactose

What is the best explanation for the observation that eukaryotes that seem superficially simple can have much larger genomes (in
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Some organisms have a tremendous amount of noncoding DNA, like repetitive sequences.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material in almost all the living organisms but except in case of viruses that has RNA as their genetic material. DNA consists of the four nitrogenous bases, pentose sugar and phosphate group.

Prokaryotes have simple body organization and structure because of the sall amount of DNA. Eukaryotes have complex body organization because they have large amount of the transposons, repetitive sequences and non repetitive DNA sequences.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
