The initiation of transcription requires melting of the DNA double helix, i.e. separating hydrogen-bonded base pairs, immediatel

y upstream of the +1 site. How is this melting accomplished in E. coli?
a. Bases at the promoter region flip outward from the double helix into pockets on the polymerase.
b. DNA helicase first unwinds the double helix around the +1 site.
c. RNA polymerase gets the energy to cause separation of strands from ATP hydrolysis.
d. Topoisomerase first returns the linking number to Lk0. DnaA:ATP complexes bind to and twist the double helix at the +1 site.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. DNA helicase first unwinds the double helix around the +1 site.

Explanation:

The helicase is an enzyme that specifically breaks the hydrogen bonds of the bases in the transcription process. As E. Coli is a prokaryote, then, the transcription only occurs in one point of the circular DNA. The promoter region indicates where the DNA polymerase has to start replicating and the Topoisomerase unwinds the parts of the DNA that are being excessively twisted because of the separation of the two strands.

Imagine you are a red blood cell sitting in the right atria of the heart. Write a paragraph that describes what happens to this
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

A red blood cell, sitting in the right atria of the heart is chocolate-brown in color since its a deoxygenated red blood cell with carbon dioxide rather than oxygen in its hemoglobin.

 

First

The tricuspid valve pumps it through the right ventricle

Secondly

pulmonary valve pumps it from the right ventricle to the pulmonary circulation.

Then

In the alveoli of the lungs, gas exchange occurs during pulmonary circulation

The end product is oxyhemoglobin( bright red colour) I.e oxygenated blood

The next step

pulmonary veins is the means whereby the red blood cell go to the left atria from the pulmonary circulation through the aortic valve

to mitral valve then to the aorta and systemic circulation

Therefore

oxygen is replaced by carbon dioxide during systemic circulation indicating a end to cellular respiration

Lastly

It's transported back to the right atrium of the heart completing the cardiac cycle.

While grazing, a buffalo stirs up insects. These insects are eaten by cattle egrets. What type of interaction does the cattle eg
marysya [2.9K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The interaction the cattle egret exhibits with the buffalo is commensalism. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>In the type of interaction called commensalism</em> between two organisms, one organism benefits from the  other while the other <em>organism is neither benefited nor harmed. </em>

When the buffalo moves around a field grazing it disturbs the insects and they fly away from the buffalo and the cattle egret which keeps following the <em>grazing buffalo eats the insects. </em>

The buffalo doesn’t benefit from this type of interaction. <em>A commensalism relation is a positive-neutral kind of relation. </em>

What is the work generated by a healthy adult who circulates 9 l of blood through the brachial artery in 10 min 2 kj?
Pani-rosa [81]
You have also the total power generated is 200W

To figure out the kind of exercises, you need to master the definition of each unit. for example
power: watt (W) is joule/sec
Work: is Newton. meter = Joule

To obtain the work done by the adult, we have to convert the power (watt) into a work by multiplying by the time  (\frac{Joule}{seconds}  * seconds = Joule)
10 minutes is 60 * 10 = 600 seconds

200Watt * 600 second = 120000 joules = 120 Kj

So the work is 120Kj
