Why can’t a purine hydrogen bond with another purine within the sugar phosphate backbone of DNA? State your reason with all the details that are required to answer the question for full credit.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

due to the structural-binding properties of the nitrogen bases

Explanation:

Adenine and guanine are purines (two-carbon nitrogen ring bases) that pair with thymine and cytosine pyrimidine nitrogen bases (one-carbon nitrogen ring bases), respectively. These specific base-pair rules are due to their hydrogen bonds (i.e., van der Waals forces), which stabilize the structure of the DNA helix. Cytosine and guanine have three sites to form hydrogen bonds to each other, while adenine and thymine have only two sites. The specific interactions between purines and pyrimidines are critical for proper bonding and attachment to the sugar-phosphate DNA backbone (i.e., for the formation of the DNA double-helical arrangement).

Which of the following describes how regions of phospholipids are arranged in the cell membrane?

Answers

Answer:

phospholipds are arranged in the phospholipid bilayer, inside the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

they have one hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails.

Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules that compose the cell bilayer membrane. Among the options, D is correct. Hydrophobic fatty acid regions face each other within the interior of the cell membrane.

-----------------------------------------------------

Two lipidic layers compose the cell membrane. There are also proteins and glucans incrusted in between.    

   

The complex lipids that compose the membrane are amphipathic molecules. A phospholipid is composed of

two fatty acid chains ⇒ hydrophobic tails, glycerol and a phosphate grouphydrophilic heads negatively charged

Phospholipids are arranged as a bilayer. Their hydrophilic polar heads face the exterior and the interior of the cells, while their hydrophobic tails are hidden against each other, constituting the internal part of the membrane.

According to this framework, we can choose the best answer among the options,

A) Hydrophilic phosphate regions face each other within the interior of the cell membrane ⇒ Incorrect ⇒ Heads are not facing each other. They are in contact with the cell exterior and interior.  

B) Hydrophilic phosphate regions are positioned toward nonpolar environments ⇒ Incorrect ⇒ Phosphate regions are in contact with water.

C) Hydrophobic fatty acid regions are positioned toward polar environments ⇒ Incorrect ⇒ tails can not be in contact with water.

D) Hydrophobic fatty acid regions face each other within the interior of the cell membrane ⇒ CORRECT.

Mutations can be either spontaneous (no known cause) or induced (caused by specific environmental agents). What are some environmental agents that could increase the rates of genetic mutations among humans today? What types of mutations have the potential to be the most significant from an evolutionary perspective?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Mutations happen spontaneously. The rate of mutation can be increased by environmental factors such as UV radiation , X-rays, gamma rays and certain types of chemicals such as bromine. These are some factor that can increase the rate of mutation

The classic example of evolutionary change in humans is the hemoglobin mutation named HbS that makes red blood cells take on a curved, sickle-like shape. With one copy, it confers resistance to malaria, but with two copies, it causes the illness of sickle-cell anemia. Examples of beneficial mutations include HIV resistance, lactose tolerance, and trichromatic vision.

Explanation:

Look the Mutations happen spontaneosly.So this means that this can increased by the enviromental factors such as Uv radiation, The X-rays, The Gamma Rays, and for last one the certain types of chemicals such as a bromine.These are some factors that increase the rate of the mutation.

So and here is the answer that you was looking for your answer was What are some environmental agents that could increase the rates of genetic mutations among humans today? well im here for teach you and told you or explain you whatever you wanted to call ir im here for teach you The evolutionary change that are in humans is that thing how is called? yes the Hemogoblin and you will say what is that thing why i want to know what is Hemogoblin Well you have to know that that think the hemogoblin is a mutation names "HBS" that makes the red blood cells it's for that reason that is important the "HBS" but there is the bad thing about the hemogoblin it makes the Anemia that is one of the terrible things that can happen to you ok?. Look they are good and bad thing about the Hemogoblin Im going to leave you some good and bad things about the hemogoblin: (But there are things that you have to know first the normal hemogoblin is in your DNA and in your DNA it's called G A G and it has too the C T C in your RNA it's called  G A G and finally it nakes the GLU The GLU it's the normal Protein, but the hemogoblin can mutate the cell can  get sick and the letters that are like This G A G those are going to change:

                                                                  C T C They going to change like this:

                                        (mutated)--- --   G T G

                                                                   C A T                                                                           (The RNA alsi change)         G U G  

                                                                        |

                                                                        |

                                                                       \/

                                                                     Val

                       (Original No mutated)---- G A G

                                                                   C T C

                                                                   G A G

                                                                        |

                                                                        |

                                                                       \/

                                                                    (GLU)  

The GLU is the Original Protein but the Val is the mutated Protein.

Now im going to say good and Bad thing about the Hemogoblin.

Good Things

N1:It creates the Blood cells

N2:Lactose Tolerance

N3-and also the Hemogoblin includes the HIV that is a resistance

Bad things about the Hemogoblin

N1-One of the most bad things of the hemogoblin is the Anemia that is the worst things as i say that can happen to you

and that's all you have to know

PD: I hope you give brainlest i make a whole investigation of that i have to make a hypothesis and everything and im so tired i have been here like 1 hour with 45 minutes.

Methamphetamine increases the brain's levels of dopamine, __________ and __________.

a) norepinephrine, serotonin

b) GABA, epinephrine

c) acetylcholine, enkephalins

d) glutamate, serotonin

Answers

Answer:

a) norepinephrine, serotonin

Explanation:

Neurotransmitters are special lipid-based molecules used in chemical signal transduction in the nervous system. They have receptor-specific roles in activating different regions of the central nervous system (CNS) and physiological responses. These include: dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin .

The CNS, which includes the brain and spinal cord, can be affected by certain drugs like methamphetamine. This drug is a stimulant that acts on brain regions such as:

prefrontal cortex the striatumthe nucleus accumbens

It causes the release of neurotransmitters while blocking their reuptake at synapses; meth is metabolized very slowly over time (12 hours). The buildup of dopamine, for instance, leads to altered moods, feelings of pleasure and euphoria.

Thus, this change or "high" leads to dependency by users for its mood-altering effect; however, less dopamine is released, and the pleasurable effects, become less potent.  Studies show neurological damage with prolonged use, and habit formation and over time, addiction.

Answers

Answer: Respiration

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which nutrients such as glucose are broken down using oxygen to generate energy in the form of ATP, that is used to drive cellular processes.

ATP consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phosphate groups in a row. Energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP.

When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work.

Which is not a unique property of water

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All of the other options are specific to water, but quite a few liquids cool off a lot faster than water.

water cools very rapidly is not a unique property of water. Thus option A is correct.

what are the properties of water molecule ?

It has no taste, odor, or transparency, where the nucleus of the oxygen atom  attracts electrons strongly than the nuclei of the hydrogen atoms.

In water molecule oxygen is more electro negative and electron-greedy than hydrogen, results in the development of  a partial negative charge on the oxygen of the water and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen end.

Water shows strong cohesive property where the attraction of molecules for other molecules of the same kind is referred to as cohesion.

Surface tension is defined as  the tendency of  the surface to resist rupture when they are subjected to stress due to cohesive forces.

Why do planets close to the sun have thin atmospheres and the planets far away from the sun have thick atmospheres. Use what you know about the nebular theory.

Answers

Answer:

There are two primary factors: size and distance from the Sun. Gravity helps planets and moons to hold on to their atmospheres, so small planets/moons such as Mars and the Moon have thin atmospheres. The reason why the outer planets are larger is probably down to two major factors. The first is simply the amount of material available which may be accreted to a planet. Clearly, the further away from the Sun, the longer the orbit (twice as far means an orbit twice the physical length).
