What term is used to describe bacterial cells that can naturally take up dna from their environment?
Maru [420]
<h2>The correct answer is: Competent cells</h2>

Explanation:

  • Bacterial cells have the capability of incorporating foreign naked DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid fragments from the environment or the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. This process is known as Transformation.
  • The bacterial cells which are able to undergo transformation are called Competent bacterial cells.
  • Some of the bacterial cells are naturally competent like<em> Bacillus subtilis, Streptocossus pneumoniae</em> while others  like <em>Escherishia coli </em>need to be chemically treated to make them artificially competent.
  • In natural competence, the foreign DNA from the cell exterior is incorporated into the cell interior through specific protein complexes present in the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells.
  • In artificial competence, the negative charge on foreign DNA is masked by positively charged calcium ions (so that it is not repelled by the negative charge of the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell plasma membrane) and then small pores are created in the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells by giving a heat shock to the cells. This results in the uptake of the DNA by the bacterial cells.

Comparing amino acid sequences in proteins has been used to determine the relatedness of organisms. Below is a graphic that show
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

A) Species A and E are more closely related than either species are related to species D.

B) Between A and B = 99.1%

Between species A and C =97.5%

Between species B and C = 97.3%

Similarity in amino acids sequence reflects similarity in DNA sequence

C) Species A and E are most closely related

D) Species A and E have the most similarity in amino acid sequence, and hence DNA sequence.

Explanation:

A) The amino acid sequences of the protein, keratin, in species A and D has a difference of about 19 whereas species A and E have a difference of only 1. Therefore, it means that keratin in species A and D will have differences in structure whereas between species A and E, they would have almost the same structure.

Also, species D and E have a difference of 20 in their amino acids sequence, therefore, the structure of keratin in both species will have differences in structure.

B) Similarity between A and B:

450 - 4 = 446

In percentage: 446/450 × 100% = 99.1%

Similarity between A and C:

450 - 11 = 439

In percentage: 439/450 × 100% = 97.5%

Similarity between B and C:

450 -12 = 438

In percentage: 438/450 × 100% = 97.3%

The sequence of DNA of species determines their amino acid sequences because information in DNA is transcribed to RNA which are then used to make proteins. Therefore, if a species are very closely related, they are expected to have very similar genetic sequences and thus proteins too. This is reflected in similarity between amino acid sequences in their proteins.

C). Species A and E are most closely related.

D) Species A and E have only a single difference in their amino acids sequence for Keratin. This translates to about 99.7% similarity which is the highest among all the species compared. Therefore, species A and E are most closely related.
