Dna sequences can act as ""tape measures of evolution"" (see concept 3.7). some highly conserved regions of the human genome (similar to comparable regions in other species) don’t code for proteins. propose a possible explanation.

Suppose you use three different scale to weigh a bag of oranges. one scale says the nag weighs 2.1 lb, and third says it weighs 2.1 lb. the actual weight of the bag of oranges is 2.153 lb. which of the following best decribes these results?

Which of the following does not make up ground substance of connective tissue? hyaluronic acid elastic fibers glycosaminoglycan proteoglycan

Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as β-lactamase), an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. the mass of this enzyme in staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kd. the amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10-ml solution containing 10-9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. penicillin(μm) amount hydrolyzed(nmol) 1 0.11 3 0.25 5 0.34 10 0.45 30 0.58 50 0.61 (a) plot v0 versus [s] and 1/v0 versus 1/[s] for these data. does penicillinase appear to obey michaelis-menten kinetics? if so, what is the value of km? (b) what is the value of vmax? (c) what is the turnover number of penicillinase under these experimental conditions? assume one active site per enzyme molecule.
