You have created a green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion to a protein that is normally secreted from yeast cells. You obtain three mutant yeast strains, each defective in some aspect of the protein secretory process. Being a good scientist, you of course also obtain a wild-type control strain. You decide to examine the fate of your GFP fusion protein in these various yeast strains and engineer the mutant strains to express your GFP fusion protein. However, in your excitement to do the experiment, you realize that you did not label any of the mutant yeast strains and no longer know which strain is defective in what process. You end up numbering your strains with the numbers 1 to 4, and then you carry out the experiment anyway, obtaining the results shown in Figure Q15-66 (the black dots represent your GFP fusion protein).

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.

answer: zinc is the substance which has a volume of 1.38 .

density is defined as the mass of an object per unit volume.

it can be calculated by dividing mass of a substance by its volume i.e.

si unit of density is kg per cubic meter and cgs unit of the same is gram per cubic centimeter.

now from the given data volume can be calculated by the formula .

hence, the volume of aluminium will be = which comes out to be 1.703 .

similarly, volume of zinc, chromium, and nickel will be 1.378 , 0.869 , and 0.356 respectively.
