Summary Introduction

To explain: How tRNAs function in context of ribosome in building polypeptides.

Concept introduction:

The genetic information of DNA is based in the nucleotide base sequences. These sequences are transcribed into mRNA triplets and are called codons. After transcription, mRNA sequences are read by tRNA in the ribosome to synthesize polypeptides and the process is known as translation. tRNA molecules have an anticodon that pairs with its complementary codon during translation. As a result, the codon-specific amino acid comes through the other end of the tRNA. These amino acids form a polypeptide chain.

Use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a propanoic acid solution (CH₂CH₂CO₂H, pK₁ = 4.874) to calculate the quotient [A-]/[HA] at three different pH values. pH = 4.479 [A-] [HA] [A-] pH = 4.874 [HA] = pH = 5.220 [A-] = [HA]
In order to establish the expiration date of perishable food, growth curve data must be collected. Once the microbial load is so high that it poses a hazard to human health, the food item is no longer considered safe (expired). Generally a load of x50,000 bacteria/gram is considered unsafe. Your task is to determine the microbial growth curves for MicroYo, a new brand of yogurt. The growth is determined by sampling the yogurt and growing the bacterial isolates in broth culture which is then serially diluted by a total of x10,000 and inoculated onto standard petri plates of nutrient agar. The following colony counts are measured: Time (days) MicroYo colony count# 1 1 4 1 12 2 16 20 4 7 What day should you recommend expiring the yogurt (the last possible date before the microbial load is unsafe). 12 4 20 16
