<u>Answer</u>: Thermal energy---->  a polar bear breaks down stored fat to increase its temperature.

Mechanical energy-------> bat emits and receives sounds to locate prey.

Electrical energy------>eel releases a current to defend itself.

Radiant energy -------->  a firefly produces a green glow from its abdomen to attract mates.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Thermal energy</em> is the energy created in the movement of particles that leads to the production of heat and thus, the temperature increases. Since the polar bears break down fat to increase temperature, the energy generated is thermal energy.  
  • The<em> mechanical energy</em> is defined as the sum of energy of motion and   the position of an object  . Thus the energy produced by the bat to locate its prey is mechanical energy.
  • The energy associated with the production of electromagnetic radiation is<em> radiant energy,</em> thus the glow produced by fireflies is a form of radiant energy.
  • The energy produced due to the movement of electrons is electrical energy. Thus, the energy produced by an eel in the form of electric current is <em>electrical energy.</em>

What is the relationship between Endomembrane System, Insulin and Insulin Receptor, activation by phosphorylation, membrane-boun
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The relationship between endomembrane system, insulin and insulin receptor, activation by phosphorylation, membrane-bound polyribosomes, and glucose transport channels is the eukariotic cell, because within it, they work together with the organelles to modify, summarize and transport lipids and proteins from the gut and absorb nutrients.

Explanation:

The Endomembrane system varies from membranes and organelles, but basically, it is structured by the nuclear envelope and lysosomes, the plasma membrane and several cytoplasmic organelles, as the ER, the Golgi apparatus, secretory granules, vesicles, lysosomes, endosomes, and the endoplasmic reticulum all working together to transfer, modify and package lipids and proteins macromoecules to the eukaryotic cell, from one part of it  to another, and from in to the outside of it also.

The membrane bound polyribosomes are attached to the cell endoplasmic reticulum. The bound ribosomes, used within the cell membrane or expelled from the cell by exocytosis, will produce insulin and they will become membrane bound to control the intake, protein modifications, fusion lipids and sugar breakdown. The insulin is a membrane bound polyribosomes protein synthesized in the ER, which travels along the endomembrane system. This hormone controls glucose and lipid metabolism  or energy function, if glucose level is high, insulin synthesis is activated.  

Synthesized and traveling through the endomembrane system, the insulin gets to its receptor called tyrosine kinase and activates it, phosphorylating and recruiting different substrate adaptors.

 The brand new insulin polypeptide chains go directly into the endoplasmic reticulum by the ribosome and then transported to where they are needed as insulin regulates sugar uptake into adipose tissue and skeletal muscle through glucose transport channels or glucose transporters GLUT4 within vesicles, which are directed to the plasma membrane, this is also the gut and nutrient absorption.

To help explain surface tension, use a single water molecule in the template, and draw arrows representing the possible location
kramer

Answer:

The correct representation is attached with the explanation.

Explanation:

In this representation of the surface tension, blue arrows between green water molecules are the possible molecules that can be used as the location for forming hydrogen bonds by a single molecule. Surface tension is the tendency of a liquid surface strectch to neighbouring molecules or ability to shrink in minimum surface area possible. Hydrogen bonds is an intermolecular force or interaction responsible for the surface are of liquide molecules. This bonds is towards every direction where the similar molecule present.

Enolase is an enzyme that catalyzes one reaction in glycolysis in all organisms that carry out this process. The amino acid sequ
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) The response indicates that a pH below or above this range will most likely cause enolase to denature/change its shape and be less efficient or unable to catalyze the reaction.

b)The response indicates that the appropriate negative control is to measure the reaction rate (at the varying substrate concentrations) without any enzyme present.

c)The response indicated that the enolase has a more stable/functional/correct/normal protein structure at the higher temperature of 55°C than at 37°C because the enzyme is from an organism that is adapted to growth at 55°C.

Explanation:

Enolase catalyzes the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpyruvate during both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.In bacteria, enolases are highly conserved enzymes and commonly exist as homodimers.

The temperature optimum for enolase catalysis was 80°C, close to the measured thermal stability of the protein which was determined to be 75°C, while the pH optimum for enzyme activity was 6.5. The specific activities of purified enolase determined at 25 and 80°C were 147 and 300 U mg−1 of protein, respectively. Km values for the 2-phosphoglycerate/phosphoenolpyruvate reaction determined at 25 and 80°C were 0.16 and 0.03 mM, respectively. The Km values for Mg2+ binding at these temperatures were 2.5 and 1.9 mM, respectively.

Enolase-1 from Chloroflexus aurantiacus (EnoCa), a thermophilic green non-sulfur bacterium that grows photosynthetically under anaerobic conditions. The biochemical and structural properties of enolase from C. aurantiacus are consistent with this being thermally adapted.
