Answer:
1. The correct answer would be A) allow you to view living cells, while electron microscopes do not.
There are many advantages of light microscope over electron microscope such as:
- It is easy to use as compared to the electron microscope.
- It enables us to view both alive as well as dead specimen whereas electron microscope can be used to view dead specimen only.
- Light microscopes are much cheaper and have much lower maintenance cost as compared to the electron microscope.
2. The correct answer would be C) scanning electron microscope
Scanning electron microscope or SEM is a type of electron microscope which is used to observe surface topography and composition of the specimen. It can achieve resolution of up to 1 nanometer.
3. The correct answer would be 400x
The total magnification of the microscope can be calculated by multiplying the powers of the objective lens and that of the eye lens.
Thus, the magnification of the specimen would be 40*10 = 400x.
Answer:
Explanation:
Normally, under anaerobic condition in yeast, pyruvate produced from glycolysis leads to the production of ethanol as shown below.
pyruvate ⇒ acetaldehyde + NADH ⇒ ethanol + NAD
The pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by the enzyme, pyruvate decarboxylase. It should be NOTED that carbon dioxide is released in this step. The acetaldehyde produced in the "first step" is then converted to ethanol by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. It must be noted from the above that the steps are irreversible.
If a mutated strain of yeast is unique because it does not produce alcohol and lactic acid (which is referred to as toxic acid in the question); thus having a high level of pyruvate because of the presence of a novel enzyme. <u>The function of this novel enzyme will most likely be the conversion of acetaldehyde in the presence of carbondioxide back to pyruvate; thus making that step reversible</u>. This could be a possible explanation for the high level of pyruvate present in the yeast.
Genotypes of the dog color are:
BB dominant homozygous-brown phenotype
bb recessive homozygous-white phenotype
Bb heterozygous-tan phenotype
Cross between brown and pan dog would be:
P: BB x Bb
F1: BB Bb BB Bb
The ratio would be 1:1 (brown dog:pan dog).
Answer: Amino acids are absorbed via a Sodium cotransporter, in a similar mechanism to the monosaccharides.
Explanation: Amino acids are absorbed via a Sodium cotransporter, in a similar mechanism to the monosaccharides. They are then transported across the alabaster membrane via facilitated diffusion. Di and tripeptides are absorbed via separate H+ dependent cotransporters and once inside the cell are hydrolyzed to amino acids.
