The function of some cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDKs) has been remarkably conserved in evolution. Indeed, coding sequence

for the human protein Cdc2 is able to substitute for the CDC28 gene in S. cerevisae and allow the yeast cell to grow and mate essentially normally. The following sequence near the NH2-end of the molecule is identical in both proteins: Gly-Glu-Gly-Thr-Tyr-Gly-Val-Val-Tyr-Lys-Ala. Does this mean that nucleotide sequences of the two genes coding for this region of the polypeptide are also identical

Answer:

No, because the genetic code is redundant  

Explanation:

During the translation, a single amino acid may be coded for by more than one codon. It is for that reason that the genetic code is considered to be redundant. Tryptophan is the unique amino acid specified by a single codon. In this case, it is likely that silent mutations at the nucleotide sequence that encode for the Glu-Gly-Thr-Tyr-Gly-Val-Val-Tyr-Lys-Ala protein motif might have accumulated during the evolution of both CDK genes, modifying thus their nucleotide sequences while preserving the same protein sequence.

What causes there to be a H+ ion concentration gradient to build up inside the thylakoid space? Check all that apply. a. The ele
siniylev [52]

Answer:

a. The electrons provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

d. The photolysis of water releases H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

Explanation:

This question describes the first stage of photosynthesis, which is LIGHT-DEPENDENT REACTION. The light dependent reactions involve creating ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier) needed for the Calvin cycle (light independent stage) to occur.

The ATP is formed by pumping hydrogen ions (H+) into the thylakoid space/lumen, hence, creating a electrochemical gradient needed for ATP synthase to synthesize ATP. The buildup of H+ ions is caused by:

- The electrons that arise when light photons hit a chlorophyll molecule is used to provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

- The photolysis of water results in the production of electrons (e-) and hydrogen ions (H+). These hydrogen ions are released into the thylakoid space.

How do organisms living in the Marianas Trench get the energy they need?
madreJ [45]
Life does exist in the Mariana Trench, even at its deepest spots. The organisms living here are mostly a wide variety amphipods, sea cucumbers, sea anemones, etc. These organisms survive mostly by feeding off of the dead living beings on the upper layers of the Trench, which fall down to the depths as a result of gravity.
