a.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The name that is used to describe the distal attachment.

Introduction: A muscle tissue is a well-vascularized soft tissue present in the muscles of animal body. A muscle tissue consists of specialized cells called myocytes (contains contractile proteins) that are generally attached with bones, which enables the movement of the various parts of the body.

Explanation of Solution

Insertion is the name that is used to describe the distal attachment. Insertion does move toward the origin during the contraction of the muscle and is usually distal or farther away to the body.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The name that is used for the proximal attachment.

b.

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

Origin is the name used for the proximal attachment. The origin is the stable attachment and it does not move during the muscle contraction. This attachment is always proximal or closer to the body. The movement of origin toward insertion is called as reverse muscle action.

If a bacterium using aerobic respiration was to degrade a 30 mM solution of citric acid, how many ATP would that cell make?  Assume no other carbon source is available.  Units cannot be entered in this style of question but the units of your answer should be in mM of ATP.
How much ATP will be produced during the following metabolic scenario: Aerobic respiration of a 5mM lipid solution that is made up of one glycerol and an 8-carbon fatty acid and 12-carbon fatty acid. Recall that when glycerol breaks down to Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate it costs one ATP but your get an extra FADH2. Every two carbons of a fatty acid break down to one acetyl-CoA. (pathways will be provided on the exam) Units cannot be entered in this style of question but the units of your answer should be in mM of ATP.
When beta-lactamase was isolated from Staphylcoccus aureus and treated with a phosphorylating agent, only the active site, serine was phosphorylated. Additionally, the serine was found to constitute 0.35% (by weight) of this beta-lactamase enzyme. Using this, calculate the molecular weight of this enzyme and estimate the number of amino acids present in the polypeptide.
