Chapter 2, Problem 1MC
Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The measurement of energy can be done by studying its effects on the matter. It is basically the ability to do perform a task. The kinetic, as well as potential work capacities, are exhibited by every form of energy. The energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can just change from one form to another.

Answer to Problem 1MC

Correct answer:

The energy can move matter and so, it can be kinetic. The potential energy that is stored in the chemical bonds is called chemical energy. Also, the electromagnetic waves are involved in the radiant energy.

Explanation of Solution

Justification for the correct answer:

Option (b) is given that kinetic energy can move matter. When the work is actually done by the energy, it is called the kinetic energy. The movement of all form of substances is possible due to the kinetic energy. Hence, option (b) is correct.

Option (c) is given that potential energy that is stored in the chemical bonds is known as chemical energy. The energy in an inactive form or the stored form is termed as potential energy. Thus, the energy in the chemical bonds is a stored form of energy and is called potential energy. The breaking up of these bonds release the potential energy in the form of kinetic energy. Hence, option (c) is correct.

Option (e) is given that the electromagnetic waves are involved in the radiant energy. The energy that travels in the form of waves is known as radiant energy. The energy of the electromagnetic spectrum that comprises infrared radiation, X rays, radio waves, ultraviolet waves, and visible light travel in the form of waves and thus are involved in the radiant energy. Hence, option (e) is correct.

Explanation for the incorrect answers:

Option (a) is given that energy occupies space and has mass. It is the matter and not the energy that occupies space and has mass. So, it is an incorrect option.

Option (d) is given that in moving the matter, the mechanical energy is indirectly involved. However, the mechanical energy is directly associated with the movement of the matter. For example, the movement of the bicycle is possible with the help of mechanical energy provided by the legs. So, it is an incorrect option.

Hence, options (a) and (d) are incorrect.

Conclusion

Therefore, it can be concluded that the stored form of energy is potential energy while the moving form is kinetic energy. The radiant energy includes the electromagnetic waves like visible light, infrared, radio waves, and many more electromagnetic radiations.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for?  3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
There is currently a H5N1 cattle outbreak in North America. According to the CDC on Feb 26*: "A multistate outbreak of HPAI A(H5N1) bird flu in dairy cows was first reported on March 25, 2024. This is the first time that these bird flu viruses had been found in cows. In the United States, since 2022, USDA has reported HPAI A(H5N1) virus detections in more than 200 mammals." List and describe two mechanisms that could lead to this H5N1 influenza strain evolving to spread in human:  Mechanisms 1: Mechanisms 2: For the mutations to results in a human epidered they would need to change how the virus interacts with the human host. In the case of mutations that may promote an epidemic, provide an example for: a protein that might incur a mutation: how the mutation would change interactions with cells in the respiratory tract (name the receptor on human cells) List two phenotypic consequence from this mutation that would increase human risk
You have a bacterial strain with the CMU operon: a) As shown in the image below, the cmu operon encodes a peptide (Pep1), as well as a kinase and regulator corresponding to a two-component system. The cmu operon is activated when Pep 1 is added to the growth media. Pep1 is a peptide that when added extracellularly leads to activation of the Cmu operon. Pep1 cmu-kinase cmu-regulator You also have these genetic components in other strains: b) An alternative sigma factor, with a promoter activated by the cmu-regulator, that control a series of multiple operons that together encode a transformasome (cellular machinery for transformation). c) the gene cl (a repressor). d) the promoter X, which includes a cl binding site (and in the absence of cl is active). e) the gene gp (encoding a green fluorescence protein). Using the cmu operon as a starting point, and assuming you can perform cloning to rearrange any of these genomic features, how would you use one or more of these to modify the…
