Do you recall any vertebrates with external reproductive organs on their dorsal surface? What advantages or disadvantages would this provide?

With the description of the different cell walls, membranes, and associated proteins set in the students' minds, you now need to introduce them to the idea that the cell wall can also act as a foundation to build things upon. bacterial appendages require a strong foundation that will offer the support needed to move and function in a dynamic world. for example, flagella are long, whiplike protein structures that are used by many gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria for locomotion. in order to function effectively, a flagellum must be firmly anchored to the cell wall. how will you be able to get across the idea that the peptidoglycan cell wall is strong enough to support such a mechanism? with a protein rod that passes through the cell wall and protein rings used to anchor it in the membranes, these basal bodies are the rudimentary biological motors that use atp power to spin the hook and the flagella attached to it. bacterial flagella have a biological motor that spins within the cell wall and is powered by atp. this allows the flagella to spin in a whiplike motion to propel the bacterium.

Amylase becomes denatured at a temperature of 80°c. during an experiment to study the effect of varyingtemperature on enzyme activity, amylase’s reactivity with starch was measured at body temperature (37°c), andthen again at an increased temperature of 42°c. how would this increase in temperature affect the experiment

Which of the following types of stars is most likely to end up as a supernova? in graph a, the curve peaks at 800 nm, in the red section of the visible light spectrum. in graph b, the curve peaks at 550 nm, in the green section of the visible light spectrum. in graph c, the curve peaks at 450 nm, in the blue section of the visible light spectrum. in graph d, the curve peaks at 300 nm, in the violet section of the visible light spectrum. a b c d
