Biochemistry

The difference in H+ concentrations on opposite sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane.

During oxidative phosphorylation, NADH and FADH oxidizes at the hydrogen carriers to provide electrons to the electron transport chain (etc) (chain of electron carriers) and H+ ions. As electrons pass through the etc, ATP is synthesized.

If energy is ever needed along the process, ATP is used. But i doubt it as the electron do not require external chemical energy to move along the carriers.

Forest Fires can kill animals that live in the forest and can kill many people. Fires spread quickly if not quickly treated and it can spread, killing many people and burn down people's houses. The Victoria bushfire killed many people and left many homeless.

Most formally, the name is disulfur trioxide.

1. Insulin: a polypeptide hormone that regulates blood sugar levels.
2. Hemoglobin: a polypeptide protein responsible for transporting oxygen in red blood cells.
3. Enzymes: many enzymes are polypeptides that catalyze chemical reactions in the body.

Buffer action refers to the ability of a solution to resist large changes in pH when an acid or base is added. This is achieved by the presence of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid, which can neutralize the added acid or base through a reversible reaction. Buffers are important in maintaining stable pH levels in biological systems and chemical processes.

Enzymes exhibit different types of specificity, including substrate specificity (acting on a specific substrate), stereospecificity (acting on a specific stereoisomer), and regiospecificity (acting at a specific region of a substrate). For example, trypsin exhibits substrate specificity by cleaving peptide bonds after lysine or arginine residues, while lactase exhibits substrate specificity by hydrolyzing lactose.

Isomers in carbohydrates are molecules that have the same molecular formula but different structural arrangements. For example, glucose and fructose are isomers of each other. They have the same number of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, but their structures differ, resulting in different chemical and biological properties.

Starch is hydrophilic, meaning it has an affinity for water and can readily dissolve in it. This property is due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups in the starch molecule, which allow it to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

Amino acids are held together by peptide bonds. Peptide bonds are formed through a condensation reaction between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid, resulting in the formation of a covalent bond and the release of a water molecule.

The little green T-shaped structures seen during mitosis are called microtubules. They are part of the cell's cytoskeleton and play a crucial role in separating the duplicated chromosomes into two daughter cells during cell division.

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid and steroid hormone synthesis, detoxification of drugs and toxins, and storage of calcium ions in cells. It lacks ribosomes on its surface, which distinguishes it from rough endoplasmic reticulum and allows it to carry out these specialized functions.

A spectrophotometer is an instrument commonly used to measure absorption spectra of samples. Microscopes do not typically have the capability to measure absorption spectra like a spectrophotometer can.

The last step of the Calvin cycle is regeneration of RuBP (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate) using ATP to continue the cycle. This is necessary to replenish the RuBP molecules that are used in the initial carbon fixation step.

Antibiotics attack proteins only found in bacteria. Each one targets a specific area, be it their cell wall, cell membrane, protein synthesis centers, and really any area that differs enough from human cells

Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen= presence of the three can be tested by heating a (protein preferably Casein) containing solid in a test tube over a low flame.

Nitrogen= nitrogen's presence can be tested in casein through mixture with Soda lime and heat. the confirmatory product is NH3 gas which turns red litmus paper to blue.

to test for sulfur and phosphorus perform first the fusion reaction.

Sulfur= presence is indicated by a white precipitate BaSO4 through reaction with BaCl2 in acid medium

Phosphorus= addition of ammonium molybdate in acidic solution and heat forms yellow precipitate.

Metabolism. The building up (synthesis) of molecules is anabolism, and breakdown of chemicals is catabolism. Metabolism is the term for all cell chemistry, including anabolism and catabolism, as well as other reactions, such as interconversions.

During the translation process, the aligning of two tRNAs with their amino acids occurs in the peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome during the stage of elongation. This is when the ribosome forms the peptide bond between the two amino acids, creating a growing polypeptide chain.

H = Hydrogen,

C = Carbon,

O = Oxygen, and

N = Nitrogen.

These are the Symbols for these four "proteinaceous" Elements.

There's many unsaturated solutions, and example can be iced tea. It all depends of how much the liquid can handle. If you add the iced tea powder in water and some sugar is kept at the bottom that means it is saturaded, if you put less amount of the iced tea and keep stirring and adding more until its got enough and nothing is standing at the bottom then you'll know its unsaturated.

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista). Plants need only light energy, CO2, and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts, specifically using chlorophyll, the green pigment involved in photosynthesis.

No, photosynthesis is a process through which plants and some other organisms convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This glucose can later be used as a source of energy, but it is not considered food production within the organism itself.

No, antibodies are not made of enzymes. Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins produced by the immune system and play a key role in identifying and neutralizing pathogens. Enzymes are a different type of protein that catalyze biochemical reactions in the body.

When we eat protein-rich foods, our digestive system breaks down the proteins into amino acids. These amino acids are then absorbed into the bloodstream and transported to cells throughout the body where they are used to build new proteins to support various functions such as muscle growth, repair, and hormone production.

The amino and inimo forms are the two tautomers of cytosine. The differ due to resonsnce around the double bond between C1 and N in the ring and C1 and N in the side chain.

In the presence of a metabolic poison that inhibits mitochondrial ATP synthase, the pH difference across the mitochondrial membrane would increase. This is because ATP synthase plays a crucial role in generating ATP by utilizing the proton gradient (pH difference) across the membrane. Inhibition of ATP synthase would disrupt ATP production, leading to a buildup of protons on one side of the membrane.
