Nitrogen cycle involves 4 steps explain??? |
| Answer» The continuous process by which nitrogen is exchanged between organisms and the environment is called nitrogen cycle. Nitrogen is an essential nutrient, needed to make amino acids and other important organic compounds, but most organisms cannot use free nitrogen, which is abundant as a gas in the atmosphere.\xa0Nitrogen cycle involves the following steps:(i) Nitrogen fixation: This process involves the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates, which are soluble in water. This is done by various nitrogen fixing bacteria. Example - Rhizobium, blue green algae and bacterium Azotobacter.(ii) Ammonification: It is the process of decomposing complex, dead organic matter into ammonia. This is done by microorganisms living in the soil.(iii) Nitrification: It is the process of conversion of ammonia into nitrites and then into nitrates. This is done by nitrifying bacteria. Example - Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter.(iv) Denitrification: It is the process of reducing nitrates present in the soil to release nitrogen back into the atmosphere. Example - Pseudomonas.\xa0 | |

How many types od muscle tissue is present |
| Answer» Types of Muscle Tissue\tSmooth Muscle: These muscle cells do not have striations or stripes. Hence they are called smooth muscle cells. They are also called involuntary muscles. The cells have a single nucleus and the cells are spindle-shaped.\tSkeletal Muscle: The skeletal muscles have stripes or striations. Hence they are also called the striated muscles. These skeletal muscles are the most common and widely distributed muscle tissue in the body.\tCardiac Muscle: This is a muscle that is found only in the heart. The rhythmic contractions of this muscle help in the pumping of blood through the blood vessels to various parts of the body. The brain controls this muscle and is an involuntary muscle. The cells of this muscle tissue are branched and cylindrical with a single nucleus and striations present. | |

what is DNA and RNA |
| Answer» \tS.N.DNARNA1.DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid. The sugar portion of DNA is 2-Deoxyribose.RNA stands for Ribonucleic Acid. The sugar portion of RNA is Ribose.2.The helix geometry of DNA is of B-Form (A or Z also present).The helix geometry of RNA is of A-Form.3.DNA is a double-stranded molecule consisting of a long chain of nucleotides.RNA usually is a single-strand helix consisting of shorter chains of nucleotides.4.The bases present in DNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.The bases present in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.5.DNA is self-replicating.RNA is synthesized from DNA on an as-needed basis.6.Base Pairing :AT (adenine-thymine)GC (guanine-cytosine).Base Pairing :AU (adenine-uracil)GC (guanine-cytosine).7.Purine and Pyrimidine bases are equal in number.There is no proportionality in between the number of Purine and Pyrimidine bases.8.DNA is susceptible to UV damage.Compared with DNA, RNA is relatively resistant to UV damage.9.Hydrogen bonds are formed between complementary nitrogen bases of the opposite strands (A-T, C-G).Base pairing through hydrogen bonds, occurs in the coiled parts.10.DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell and in mitochondria.Depending on the type of RNA, this molecule is found in a cell’s nucleus, its cytoplasm, and its ribosome.11.DNA can’t leave the nucleus.RNA leaves the nucleus (mRNA).12.The C-H bonds in DNA make it fairly stable, plus the body destroys enzymes that would attack DNA. The small grooves in the helix also serve as protection, providing minimal space for enzymes to attach.The O-H bond in the ribose of RNA makes the molecule more reactive, compared with DNA. RNA is not stable under alkaline conditions, plus the large grooves in the molecule make it susceptible to enzyme attack.13.Renaturation after melting is slow.It is quite fast.14.DNA is only two types: intra nuclear and extra nuclear.Three different types of RNA: m-RNA, t-RNA and r-RNA.15.Its quantity is fixed for cell.The quantity of RNA of a cell is variable.16.It is long lived.Some RNAs are very short lived while others have somewhat longer life.17.Functions:Long-term storage of genetic information; transmission of genetic information to make other cells and new organisms.Functions:Used to transfer the genetic code from the nucleus to the ribosomes to make proteins. RNA is used to transmit genetic information in some organisms and may have been the molecule used to store genetic blueprints in primitive organisms.\t | |

How would non secretion of saliva affect digestion of food in our mouth |
|
Answer» Actually, saliva contains two enzyme 1.salivary amylase 2.ptyalin or lysozymeSalivary amylase plays an important role in digestion of starch.it changes boiled starch into dissachrides(maltose).while, lysozyme (also called ptyalin)acts as anti bacterial agent.so, if saliva will not be released these actions will not take place. Salivary amylase would not be able to digest starch or sugars. If saliva is not secred the starch prsent in our food will not be digested in the mouth as there would be no enzyme (salivary amylase/tyalin) to act on it |

heart wood is more durable than spring wood why |
| Answer» Sapwood\xa0is the outer light-colored portion of a tree trunk through which the water passes from the roots to the leaves, and in which excess food is often stored.\xa0Heartwood\xa0is the central core of the trunk. In most\xa0woods,\xa0the\xa0heartwood\xa0can be distinguished from the\xa0sapwood\xa0by its darker colour. Heartwood\xa0has a much lower starch content, and the hollow cells are filled with extractives that are sometimes toxic to fungi and insects giving it much higher\xa0durability than sapwood.\xa0Sapwood\xa0is much less\xa0durable than heartwood\xa0and often has marginally lower structural properties. | |

Explain generation and conduction of nerve impulse. |
| Answer» Whenever we touch any object the immediate response of the nervous system is to send signals through nerves to the spinal cord. The neurons then transmit the signal from spinal cord to brain. Brain cells transmit the signal along their axons to the neighboring neurons via synapses. When the information in form of electrical signals reaches the axon’s end the voltage trigger releases the neurotransmitters which are brain’s chemical messengers. The neurotransmitters are traveled across the synapse till they reach potassium ion channels. Potassium ions enter the cells making inside of the cell more positive than outside. When the signal reaches axon terminal calcium ions move inside the cell and vesicles filled with neurotransmitters are expelled out of the cell. | |

The decomposers also help in putting back the various elements of which the dead plants and animals were made, back into the soil, air and water for reuse by the producers like crop-plants, e.g. the decomposers like purifying bacteria and fungi decompose the dead plants and animal bodies into ammonia. This ammonia is converted into nitrates by nitrifying bacteria present in soil. These nitrates act as fertilizer in the soil and are again absorbed by the plants for their growth. Thus, the nitrates act as fertilizer in the biosphere so that the process of life may go on and on like an unending chain. | |

Enzymes in biomolecule.?please explain.? |
|
Answer» There are also organic or inorganic compounds known as co factors ...without which many enzymes won\'t work. In these cases the protein part of the enzyme is called the apoenzyme. There are also certain inhibitors which are required to stop the function of enzymes when not needed. When these inhibitors closely resemble the substrate. These are called competitive inhibitors. As they compete with the substrate to bind with the enzyme. Most of the Enzymes are proteins. Their function is to catalyse a reaction. A reaction which would take a lot of time and energy to happen ...using an enzyme can take place in seconds. For eg. CO2 \'s reaction with water under normal conditions is very slow.. about 200 molecules of H2co3 an hour. But using Carbonic anhydrase ( an enzyme) you can form 600,000 molecules per second. Enzymes do this due to their structure. In their structure there are crevices ...known as active sites. The reactant or substrate fits in this active site perfectly. After this the bonds of the substrate are loosened so that it can form the product more easily and with less energy requirements. |
