The Earth has a plethora of organisms that live and reproduce all throughout its surface. Depending on what kind of organism‚ they go through some processes that others life-forms do not need to do. However‚ the molecules DNA and RNA‚ which are found in all living creatures‚ work together in a certain process that is crucial to existence: the formation of proteins. Although all species differ from each other in various ways‚ the processes by which proteins are synthesized are the same in all.

major dietary sources of each. a. Proteins b. Carbohydrates c. Fats . Janine made this statement: “… if your brain doesn’t get carbs—well‚ glucose‚ anyway—you get really cranky. You have to have enough carbs.” Find out if Janine is right. How does the nervous system use glucose? . Janine also said: “If you eat way too much protein and not enough carbs you can ruin your kidneys forever because of all the nitrogen you have to process breaking down the protein.” Find out if Janine is right about

Denaturation of proteins involves the disruption and possible destruction of both the secondary and tertiary structures. Since denaturation reactions are not strong enough to break the peptide bonds‚ the primary structure (sequence of amino acids) remains the same after a denaturation process. Denaturation disrupts the normal alpha-helix and beta sheets in a protein and uncoils it into a random shape. Denaturation occurs because the bonding interactions responsible for the secondary structure (hydrogen

Sarah Khan Bivins-5th April 20th‚ 2013 Protein Synthesis Every day‚ you take in an abundance of different biomolecules; one of them being proteins. Have you ever wondered how proteins are made? They don’t just grow from a tree or fall from the sky‚ they are made through a process called protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is broken up in two two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription starts inside the nucleus when the DNA is unzipped by helicase. Following that‚ the mRNA nucleotides

Caloric Content of Food Introduction: I will test different foods to figure out how much energy they contain. Materials and Methods: I filled a beaker half full and put the food I was testing under it and lit it up; after recording the water temperature. Then I recorded the mass of the ashes and I recorded the temperature one last time. I repeated the process for the other test foods as well. Results: See table below Discussion: This lab helped me learn how to measure the amount of

Equal Pay for Equal Work For years‚ women have been fighting for equality in everything that they do. If one takes a close look at the issues surrounding the differences between men’s and women’s roles in the workforce‚ one will notice that women tend to be one step below on the “status” or “importance” ladder. In American society‚ the woman has always been viewed traditionally in the role she should play in the home; that she is the “homemaker” or “caretaker”. Even when women break from the stereotype

Receptor Protein Protein that binds to a specific single molecule‚ enabling the cell to respond to the signal molecule. i.e. The muscles of a person exercising can not contract without receptor proteins and signal molecules that tell the muscles when to contract and when to relax.
