Divide the amount in half for every 2 minutes
0 minutes = 20 grams
2 minutes = 20/2 = 10
4 minutes = 10/2 = 5
6 minutes = 5/2 = 2.5
8 minutes = 2.5/2 = 1.25 grams
<span>An ionic bond is a complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another. This generally happens between atoms that have opposite electronegativity. This means one has very few atoms in their outer shell, while the other has many. A common example of an ionic bond is that of salt, with Na and Cl. Sodium has one electron in its outer shell, in which it transfers to chloride to make an ionic bond.

Ionic bonds are usually found in dry forms such as salts and are found in compounds throughout the human body. Ionic compounds are generally water soluble.</span>
DNA<span> - As you recall, DNA is formed in the shape of a double helix. The double strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds. Each single strand has a backbone made of sugar and phosphate, as well as either a purine (adenine or guanine) or pyrimidine (cytosine or thymine). Each purine is connected to a pyrimidine through a hydrogen bond, giving the double DNA strand strength, and flexibility. This bond holds the two sides of DNA together, each bond contributing to the overall strength of DNA. When DNA is replicated, special enzymes known as DNA helicase "unzip" DNA and these bonds are broken so the two strands can be individually replicated.</span>
Answer:
See the second attached image showing the gametes from the parent with the location of the centromere indicating the type of chromosome
Explanation:
According to the position of the centromere, chromosomes can be of 4 types namely:
- Metacentric
- Acrocentric
- Telocentric
- Sub-metacentric
A metacentric chromosome is a chromosome that has no short or long arm. The arms are equal in length with the centromere joining the two sister chromatids located at the center.
Acrocentric chromosomes have unequal arm lengths with the centromere skewed towards one end of the chromosome.
Telocentric chromosomes have their centromeres at one end of the chromosome.
Sub-metacentric chromosomes have unequal arm lengths but the centromere is not as skewed to one end of the chromosome length as found in acrocentric chromosome.
The only possible gamete from <em>aa bb</em> parent is <em>ab</em>. Recall that the allele <em>a </em>is located on a metacentric chromosome while allele <em>b </em>is located on acrocentric chromosome.
Answer:
<u>The correct statements are A and D</u>
A.The photo-system will still continue to split water because it is still losing electrons
D.The ATP yield would be unaffected
Explanation:
DCPIP is a redox-sensitive dye, not an electron transport chain blocker, and hence, imparts change in the wavelength when electrons are transferred. This allows rest of the steps of photo-system to be carried on normally, including splitting of water to generate oxygen as well as generation of ATP.
Answer:
A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.
Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.
Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.
