hormones are the chemical signals, which are sent all through the body to monitor other processes of the body.

The right option is; Hormones are the chemical signals, which are sent all through the body to monitor other processes of the body.

Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted from the endocrine glands, and are released directly into the bloodstream, which transports them to tissues and organs to perform their functions. Different types of hormones act on different body function and processes. Hormones influence the body’s functions, including development and growth, cognitive function and mood, sexual function and reproduction, regulation of body temperature and thirst, and food metabolism.

Which of the following genes would not likely be encoded on a plasmid?
raketka [301]

Answer:

gene encoding enzymes for glycolysis.

Explanation:

Plasmid may be defined as an extra chromosomal circular DNA that replicate independently of the main chromosomal material. Plasmid are generally used for the manipulation of genes in molecular technologies.

Plasmid can encode gene for toxins, antibacterial resistance and for the unusual substrate degradation. The plasmid cannot code enzyme for glycolysis because these enzymes are already present in the host organisms. Glycolysis enzymes are independent on the plasmid regulation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

Biological control methods for managing insect pests are effective for reasons that include which of the following? They promote
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Option B, They generally focus on one target insect to ensure that the target insect population remains low.

Explanation:

Biological pest control methodologies are focused towards a specific species of pest and do not harm the non-targeted species. These methods are environment friendly and do not produce any harmful residues. Also they do not develop any kind of resistance in species due to which the same bio pesticide can be used again and again. Since these methods have high specificity, they may require usage of two or more bio pesticides all together.  

Hence, option B is correct

A (n) inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate. 2. a
Studentka2010 [4]
The answers are as follows:
1. <span>An inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate: t</span>his is called competitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor will compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and bind to the active site, thus incapacitating the substrate from binding to the active site.
2.  An inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site: this is called non competitive inhibitors. Non competitive inhibitors bind to other site in the enzyme which is not the active site of the enzyme. The binding of the inhibitor changes the conformation of the enzyme as well as the active site, thus making it impossible for the substrate to bind to the enzyme effectively.
3. <span>usually, a(n) inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity: this is called irreversible or permanent inhibition. Permanent inhibitors form covalent bonds with the enzyme and prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme.
4. T</span><span>he competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the ACTIVE SITE on the enzyme: The active site of an enzyme is the place where the substrate normally bind in order to activate a enzyme. Competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the substrate from binding there.
5. W</span><span>hen the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the ENZYME is distorted. The non competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that bind to other places in the enzyme instead of the active site. The binding of the non competitive inhibitor usually distort the shape and the conformation of the enzyme thus preventing the substrate from binding to it effectively.
6. E</span><span>nzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its SUBSTRATE. The principal function of enzyme inhibitor is to prevent the substrate from binding to the appropriate enzyme. This is usually done in the human system in order to regulate the activities of enzymes.</span>

A cell with a predominance of rough endoplasmic reticulum is most likely ________. a cell with a predominance of rough endoplasm
amid [387]
The answer to this question would be: <span>producing large quantities of proteins for secretion.
</span>
A cell with many rough endoplasmic reticulum has a high protein synthesis capability. This will make the cell able to produce many proteins like enzyme. One example of this type of cell will be pancreas cells. This cell will need many enzymes to digest food that you eat so it will need many ER to produce it.

specific example of a conflict that might occur due to individualism and collectivism. Explain briefly.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The very definitions of ‘individualism’ and ‘collectivism’ are, by themselves, ideological definitions.

Reality shows us that these two ‘ideologies’ are pragmatically practiced, with one or the other being the policy-making ideology. We have already seen the results of

collectivism, as gruesomely displayed during the 75 year life of the ‘late’ Soviet Union, and the CONTINUING forms of that totalitarian collectivism in the People’s Republic of China and North Korea.

Tiananmen Square in China was the classic confrontation conflict

of the individual dissidents against the tyrannical Chinese State.

The United States, Australia, and some of the European states tend to exhibit MORE individualism by virtue of their democratic forms of government. There is NO ‘ pure individualism’ anywhere on Earth, as all national populations have their civic codes and regulations governing individual behavior.

Philosophically AND practically speaking, it is ALWAYS the individual that will be oppressed by the governing state[collectivism] - I know of NO instance -ever -where any individual person oppressed an established government.
