How are proteins in cells synthesized from a small collection of simple prior molecules?

They are built from DNA/RNA templates. When an activated gene codes for a protein, it causes amino acids to be arranged in a sequence specified by the DNA nucleotide sequence of the gene. Then in a process currently being investigated as the "protein-folding problem" the amino acids by complex chemical interaction are selectively folded together into the completed protein molecule.

Are Organic molecules are made from a small collection of simple precursors?
Organic molecules are molecules that have a carbon backbone.
How simple diffusion can be distinguished from facilitated diffusion?
simple diffusion transports smaller molecules like oxygen and water while facilitated diffusion transports larger molecules like glucose and requires energy
Do Golgi bodies produce protein?
The Golgi apparatus takes simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them into vesicles, and either stores them for later use or sends them out of the cell. It also builds lysosomes, creates complex sugars and sends them off in secretory vesicles.
What are proteins that recognize specific proteins on bacteria?
Simple the answer is an Antibody!
What sort proteins and other substances and package and deliver them to other parts of the cell?
The Golgi body gathers simple molecules and combines them to make more complex molecules. These are the proteins and other newly formed materials that it distributes to other parts of the cell.
Are Organic molecules are made from a small collection of simple precursors?
Organic molecules are molecules that have a carbon backbone.
What molcule can pass through a lipid bilayer by simple diffusion with no assistance from proteins?
Carbon.water molecules,glucose molecules can pass through lipid bilayer by simple diffusion
How simple diffusion can be distinguished from facilitated diffusion?
simple diffusion transports smaller molecules like oxygen and water while facilitated diffusion transports larger molecules like glucose and requires energy
What do ribosomes synthesize?
Ribosomes synthesize proteins. They are found outside of the cell's nucleus, and they create proteins from amino acids.
What is a molecular chain of nucleotides?
Very long strings of many simple molecules linked to one another.
What enzymes are secreted in an earthworm's digestive tract?
ANSWERAnimals digest their food. The proteins carbohydrates and fat in food. are broken down into simple molecules.
Are monosaccharides amino acids?
No. Monosaccharides are the most simple carbohydrates. Amino acids are the molecules that string together to make polypeptides and ultimately proteins.
Does simple diffusion require transport proteins?
no, but active transport on the other hand, does require transport proteins to transport the large molecules into the cell.
Carbohydrates lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken down to produce what?
Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins are types of carbon compound that are broken to produce simple molecules like carbon-dioxide and water.
What are the digestive enzyme?
Complex molecules are broken down into simple molecules by the action of specialised proteins called enzymes. The three digestive enzymes are:amylases, which act on the carbohydratesproteases, which act on the proteinslipases, which act on the lipids
What are the major types of proteins?
They are the simple and conjugated proteins.
Do Golgi bodies produce protein?
The Golgi apparatus takes simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them into vesicles, and either stores them for later use or sends them out of the cell. It also builds lysosomes, creates complex sugars and sends them off in secretory vesicles.
