Biochemistry

When amino acids combine to form proteins or polypeptides a condensation reaction occurs. The carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amine group of the other molecule. One molecule of water is released and this results in C(O)NH, or a peptide bond.

Condensation is the reaction: the opposite process is termed Hydrolysis.

Simple

For example, simple cuboidal epithelium

A layered version would be Stratified cuboidal epithelium

diploid, definition is here http://www.bioethics.gov/reports/stemcell/glossary.html

Temperature can affect enzyme activity because enzymes work best within specific temperature ranges. At low temperatures, enzyme activity decreases as the molecules move more slowly, decreasing the likelihood of enzyme-substrate collisions. At high temperatures, enzyme activity can be disrupted because the enzyme structure can become denatured, leading to a loss of function. Optimal temperature for enzyme activity varies depending on the specific enzyme.

Cell boundaries (distinct black lines between the cells), and the stained cytoplasm are visible at 10 (ocular magnification) by 5 (stage magnification). The cells are very small at this point. At 10 by 10 cells are bigger and the vacuoles can be seen clearly as separate parts. Any other organelles cannot be seen by a low power microscope. As far as I remember nuclei cannot be seen in the case on onion epidermis. However, i am not too sure.

To modify proteins, basically. To place simple carbohydrates on the proteins and give the protein and the chaperon's that fold them a place protected to do their work. Also ships the protein for further modification to the Golgi body.

Starch occurs in two forms, alpha-amylose and amylopectin. Each may be enzymatically hydrolyzed: a-amylose by a-amylase [a(1-4)-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase], present in saliva and pancreatic juice; or by beta-amylase [a(1-4)-glucan maltohydrolase.

The a- and b-amylases also 'attack' amylopectin. Polysaccharides of intermediate length thusly formed are called dextrins.

The theory of endosymbiosis which believes that nuclear membranes and organelles such as the mitochondrian have evolved from a semi"mutation" in which a prokaryotic cell was engulfed by a eukaryotic cell and instead of being digested it survived and has evolved into key features of the eukaryotic cell. Evidence for this is the fact that the mitochondrian have their own ribosomes ( of which are the prokaryotic variety) and their own DNA which allow them to make their own proteins that can be used in synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

There are two hundred and twenty 'different specialized Cell types'.

So pick two - muscle and nerve tissues; bone and vascular [blood circulating] tissues; skin (integument) and stomach / intestine; etcetera.

2 ATP are produced in anaerobic respirtaion

a water molecule is polar because their is an uneven distributive of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. the negative pole is near the oxygen atom and the positive pole is between the hydrogen atoms.

There is a bacterium that resides within the rhizomes - nodules found within the roots - of Legumes that transforms atmospheric N2 [gaseous molecular Nitrogen] into its forms [NO2 and NO3] that are biochemically active.

Oxygen in oxidative phosphorylation comes from the air we breathe. During the electron transport chain, oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor, combining with protons to form water. This reaction is essential for the generation of ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

1. G1 phase: the cell grows and carries out its normal functions.
2. S phase: DNA replication occurs, ensuring that each new cell will have a complete set of genetic information.
3. G2 phase: the cell continues to grow and prepares for cell division by synthesizing proteins needed for mitosis.

Scientifically speaking, the product is a zygote. A zygote is the term for a fertilized egg in its early stages of development and when it has not yet arrived at the uterus(the egg is fertilized at the fallopian tubes). When it has attached itself to the uterus, it is called a blastocyte. After 7 to 10 days after the fertilization, it is called a gastrula. When the stem cells have fully specialized, it is called a embryo.

To determine the number of base pairs in a segment of DNA, you would need to know the length of the segment in base pairs. Each base pair consists of two nucleotides bonded together, such as adenine-thymine or cytosine-guanine. You can count the bases in the segment and divide by two to get the number of base pairs.

Yes, the Calvin cycle requires RuBP (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate) as it is the starting molecule for carbon fixation. RuBP reacts with CO2 to form an unstable intermediate that eventually leads to the synthesis of sugars such as glucose.

Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction in which a water molecule is used to break down a larger molecule into smaller units. It is involved in processes such as digestion, breaking down complex carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into simpler forms that the body can absorb and use for energy. Additionally, hydrolysis plays a role in metabolic reactions, breaking down molecules to release stored energy.

Lipids, specifically phospholipids, are the class of nutrient that can produce certain hormones and form a coating on nerves. These essential fats play a crucial role in cellular structure and signaling, including hormone production and nerve insulation.

Living things rely on enzymes to carry out essential chemical reactions in their bodies. Without enzymes, these reactions would occur too slowly or not at all, leading to the inability to survive. Therefore, living things cannot survive without enzymes.

it takes place in animals all the time. When we breathe in we take on oxygen which combines with gluscose in aerobic respiration to produce energy.

oxygen+glucose---- carbon dioxide+ water+ energy

Hypoxanthine is a naturally occurring purine derivative. It is occasionally found as a constituent of nucleic acids, where it is present in the anticodon of tRNA in the form of its nucleoside inosine. It has a tautomer known as 6-hydroxypurine. Hypoxanthine is a necessary additive in certain cell, bacteria, and parasite cultures as a substrate and nitrogen source. Hypoxanthine is also a spontaneous deamination product of adenine. Because of its resemblance to guanine, the spontaneous deamination of adenine can lead to an error in DNA transcription/replication.

Furfural cannot be formed from ribosides until the glycosidic

linkage has been split; the purine-ribose links of RNA are easily

hydrolysed by hot acid, while the pyrimidine-ribose links are much more

resistant, and the orcinol method is commonly supposed to determine only

the purine-bound ribose of RNA.
