B) Photosynthesis The Sun is the ultimate source of all energy in the universe. Plants being the main primary producers or autotrophs, use solar energy to make their own food through photosynthesis, thus converting energy into the organic matter that can be consumed by all organisms. They form the basis of almost all food chains from where consumers derive their food.
The false statement is: (a) Transcriptional regulators usually interact with the sugar–phosphate backbone on the outside of the double helix to determine which DNA sequence to bind.
Transcriptional regulator or factor is protein with the ability to control and regulate gene expression at the transcription level by binding to DNA. Transcriptional factors have domain-DNA-binding domain which contains structural motif that recognizes DNA and it is responsible for the attachment to specific DNA sequence. It usually binds to the DNA major groove (hydrogen bonding) because it is less degenerate than that of the DNA minor groove.
Transcriptional factors also contain trans-activating domain for the binding of other proteins and signal-sensing domain for the detection of external signals.
<h2>cAMP and glucose mobilization</h2>
Explanation:
It would maintain high cAMP level and elevate glucose mobilization
- Phosphodiesterase is an effector enzyme which degrades secondary messenger cAMP(cyclic adenosine monophosphate)
- Here in this case an inhibitor is inhibiting the phosphodiesterase therefore cAMP level will increase
- As cAMP level rise it activates a protein called protein kinase A which phosphorylates phosphorylase kinase and activates it
- Phosphorylase kinase becomes active that phosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase and makes it active,glycogen phosphorylase catalyse breakdown of glycogen(in liver and muscle cells)
- In liver cells breakdown of glycogen occurs and glucose 1 phosphate gets converted into glucose and supplied to whole body through blood
improved soil fertility
Explanation:
One direct benefit of biodiversity is improved soil fertility. Biodiversity is the variety of plants and animals living in a particular ecosystem.
A soli is made up of organic matter. Organic matter is the remain of dead and decaying plant and animal materials in the soil.
Organic matter is a very important soil component.
Since plants and animals eat up plants which takes nutrients from the soil, there must be a way to replenish these vital soil materials.
The more biodiverse an ecosystem, the better its chance of adding more nutrients to the soil as they decay.
