A mitochondrion is having a problem creating enough energy to build new molecules which problem most likely exists with the mitochondrian?

The problem most likely exists within the electron transport chain of the mitochondrion. This chain is responsible for generating the majority of ATP, the cell's energy currency. Issues such as a lack of substrates, damage to protein complexes, or inhibition of enzyme activity within the electron transport chain could lead to a decrease in energy production.


After being formed by the ribosomes located on the endoplasmic reticulum what is the next organelle to which a protein could be transported?

The next organelle that a protein could be transported to after being formed by ribosomes on the endoplasmic reticulum is the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi apparatus processes, sorts, and packages proteins into vesicles for transport to their final destination within the cell or for secretion outside the cell.


How could an error during transcription affect the protein produced?

The sequences of bases will be affected and can produce a protein that is a nonsense protein and will not work at all, another that will work somewhat or a protein that will work just fine which is called a silent mutation. It all depends on where the error is. http://www.chemguide.co.uk/organicprops/aminoacids/dna6.html


Is it active or passive transport or osmosis when particles move through protein doorways?

Since you are talking about the movement of particles, it would not be osmosis, because osmosis is the movement of water. Technically speaking, you could consider water a particle, but it is assumed that this question refers to movement of soluteparticles, and not solvent particles. Then, to determine if the movement is active or passive, one needs to know if energy is required and if the movement is up or down the concentration gradient. No energy requirement, it is passive. If a source of energy is needed, then it is active transport. Not sure what a protein doorway is. If you mean a pore, then the movement may be passive, or even facilitated diffusion.


Is protein a plural noun?

No. The Plural of protein is proteins, although 'protein' could refer to an uncountable amount.

What are rare protein that cure cancer?

While there is not currently a protein that cures cancer, the discovery of the novel protein ceramide-1 phosphate transport protein (CPTP) could lead to the development of new drugs to fight cancer.

Why is protein production necessary?

Proteins provide structure for living organisms. They are also catalysts for almost every biochemical reaction. Without protein catalysts, it could take years for a single sugar molecule to be broken down in a cellular environment.

What would happen to a cell if the number of ribosomes was reduced?

Reducing the number of ribosomes in a cell would lead to a decrease in protein synthesis, which could affect the cell's ability to function properly. This could result in slower growth, reduced metabolism, and potential disruptions in cell processes that rely on protein production.


Which microorganisms could be used for single cell protein production?

Microorganisms commonly used for single cell protein production include bacteria (such as Escherichia coli), yeast (such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae), and filamentous fungi (such as Fusarium venenatum). These microorganisms are often selected for their fast growth rates, ability to utilize a variety of substrates, and high protein content in their cells.
