When expressing the rate of non-growth as a function of temperature [mu = f(T)], explain what process is required for irreversible inactivation.
J. C. Servaites, in Plant Physiol. (1985) 78:839–843, observed that Rubisco from tobacco leaves collected before dawn had a much lower specific activity than the enzyme collected at noon. This difference persisted despite extensive dialysis, gel filtration, or heat treatment. However, precipitation of the predawn enzyme by 50% (NH4)2SO4 restored the specific activity to the level of the noon-collected enzyme. Suggest an explanation.
How rate of glycolysis is regulated within a plant cell? Which mechanisms are involved in this regulation?

- please see attachedarrow_forwardThe herbicide dinoseb, which was removed from the market many years ago, killed plants by uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation. Ironically, plants have embedded in the inner membrane of their mitochondria a protein named the “uncoupling protein” that essentially can carry out the same process caused by dinoseb. The mechanism of uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation involves which of the following scenarios. A. Excess electrons oxidize lipids in the mitochondrial membranes, thus destroying the electron transport chain B. Excessive oxygen is consumed via reduction to water, thus depriving the mitochondria of the ability to carry out phosphorylation that requires oxygen C. The membrane selectivity required to maintain a proton gradient is altered so the potential for driving ATP synthesis via chemiosmosis is degraded D. Uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation kicks a cell into a fermentative pathway that cannot supply sufficient ATParrow_forwardA group of students have carried out an experiment to investigate the relationship between the amount of growth hormone BAP in the culture medium and the growth of shoot of jckplant.They have supplemented the medium with BAP but there is another student suggested that hundred percent shooting efficiency will be obtained when the the culture media is suplemented BAP and NAA.From your point of view, state which option will you choose and explain why?arrow_forward
- Experiments to address the day-night discrepancy in warming (see Pic5) indicate that climate change has inhibited plant growth in warm dry areas more than in cool wet areas. Explain this observation.arrow_forwardWith respect to cell metabolism, what is “energy coupling”? Give a very simple example.arrow_forwardWhat is the advantage of using ATP as a common energy source?Another way of asking this question is, “Why does ATP provide anadvantage over using a bunch of different food molecules?” For example,instead of just having a Na+/K+-ATPase in a cell, why not have manydifferent ion pumps, each driven by a different food molecule, like aNa+/K+-glucosase (a pump that uses glucose), a Na+/K+-sucrase (a pumpthat uses sucrose), a Na+/K+-fatty acidase (a pump that uses fatty acids),and so on?arrow_forward

You have an enzyme that reacts specifically with the beta form of the sugar,and produces a signal that is easy to measure. However, every time you try to measure the amount of beta-glucose, mutarotation occurs and the alpha form of the sugar is converted into beta!! Can you suggest a simple way of overcoming this problem so you could measure only the beta form of the sugar? HINT: Is there a way you can prevent mutarotation?arrow_forward

It goes through multiple stages to produce energy that cells use. One series of reactions during this process is call the citrus acid cycle. Discuss how you could either speed up or slow down the degradation of glucose through the citrus acid cycle? (Hint: look at the citrus acid cycle and choose one step)arrow_forward
