Name two nonliving cell like structures that can form in certain solutions?
microspheres and coacervates
First step towards cellular organization a. microsatellites b. micrometers c. microspheres d. micromolecules?
Microspheres
Proteinoid microspheres are tiny bubbles that resemble cells because they?
Have selectively preameable membranes
How are proteinoid microspheres different from cells?
Tiny Bubbles formed by large organic molecules under certain conditions. Microspheres are not cells, but they have some characteristics of living systems. They have selectively permeable membranes through which only certain bio-molecules may pass.
What is the relationship between micro-sphere and coacervate?
Microspheres are composed of molecules of proteins and Coarcevates are composed of molecules of amino acids (broken forms of proteins).
What properties do Microspheres and coacervates share with cells?
The structures include microspheres, which are spherical in shape and are composed of many protein molecules that are organized as a membrane, and coacervates, which are collections of droplets that are composed of molecules of diffrent types, including linked amino acids and sugars.
Name two nonliving cell like structures that can form in certain solutions?
microspheres and coacervates
Why was the discovery of microspheres and coacervates an important contribution to the understanding of how life might have originated on Earth?
They are both fairly related to cells and scientists believe it fills a "gap" in time where we transition into cellular organisms.
What is the difference between living cells and coacervates?
Coacervates lack hereditary information.
First step towards cellular organization a. microsatellites b. micrometers c. microspheres d. micromolecules?
Microspheres
Coacervates are similar to cells but lack whAT?
coacervates are similar to cell but they do not have a lipid membrane and can not reproduce
What characteristics do coacervates share with living things?
Like living things, coacervates contain organic molecules. Coacervates have a membrane-like barrier between them and their surroundings, and osmosis occurs between the inside and the outside of the droplet.
What is the difference between microsphere and coacervate?
A coacervate is a tiny spherical droplet of assorted organic molecules (specifically, lipid molecules) which is held together by hydrophobic forces from a surrounding liquid. Coacervates measure 1 to 100 micrometers across, possess osmotic properties and form spontaneously from certain dilute organic solutions. Have no membrane. Microspheres have a double membrane.
What is the cost per bulk liter of ceramic hollow microspheres?
$500.00
Can coacervates reproduce?
no they cannot reproduce bcz they do not hav lipid outer membranes
Proteinoid microspheres are tiny bubbles that resemble cells because they?
Have selectively preameable membranes
Tiny bubbles formed by large organic molecules?
Proteinoid microspheres (or just a microsphere if you were going for a general answer)
