Which of the following statements correctly describes some aspect of protein excretion in prokaryotic cells? a Prokaryotes are u

nlikely to be able to excrete proteins because they lack an endomembrane system. b The mechanism of protein excretion in prokaryotes is probably the same as that in eukaryotes. c Proteins that are excreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. d In prokaryotes, the ribosomes that are used for the synthesis of secreted proteins are located outside of the cell. e Prokaryotes contain large pores in their plasma membrane that permit the movement of proteins out of the cell.

The correct answer is option c: "Proteins excreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes attached to the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane." Many prokaryotes secrete proteins, especially extracellular enzymes used outside cells and toxins not required by the cell. Just like any other protein, those secreted by prokaryotes are created on ribosomes attached to the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane. However, secreted proteins are directed to the general secretion (Sec) pathway for tagging and additional processing.

true or false: All substances can pass freely between the intracellular and extracellular fluids through a phospholipid bilayer.
garik1379 [1541]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

If this were indeed accurate, it would threaten the internal balance of our cells; akin to how not all keys fit in locks, not every molecule possesses the "key" needed to transport across the phospholipid bilayer into and out of the intracellular and extracellular fluids. Typically, small hydrophobic ("water-repelling") molecules can traverse this bilayer.

What best explains the interaction between tRNA and mRNA during translation?
11111nata11111 [1806]
mRNA functions as the messenger that conveys DNA's instructions to ribosomes, which are responsible for protein synthesis. Meanwhile, tRNA aids in transporting the requisite amino acids to the ribosomes. Essentially, mRNA specifies the amino acids required and their sequence, while tRNA collects these amino acids and delivers them to the ribosomes.

When a bacterial cell is present in an environment where both lactose and glucose are present, the glucose will be metabolized f
vlada-n [1829]

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

The lac operon system in bacteria elucidates the process of lactose metabolism within the cell. The initial operon system was identified by Jacob and Monod. An operon is characterized as a cluster of genes transcribed together as a single RNA unit.

When both glucose and lactose are available in the media, the bacterium favors metabolizing glucose. The presence of glucose is recognized by the bacterial cell as the CAP-cAMP complex is essential for transcription, and its levels are reduced in glucose's presence. This mechanism effectively halts the transcription of lactose genes even when lactose is available.

Consequently, the right answer is option (A).
