Clara Y El Enigma De Tihapia

Clara y el enigma de Tihapia

Clara, una niña de diez años rebosante de curiosidad, viaja al alucinante pueblo de Tihapia para pasar las vacaciones de verano con su abuela. Mientras husmea en la antigua habitación de su madre, descubre, con la ayuda de su perro, Pita, una sala oculta detrás de una librería. Decidida a esclarecer todos los misterios de la sala secreta convence a Sofía, una niña del pueblo con la que forja una bonita amistad, para que investiguen juntas. Lo que parecían ser unas aburridas vacaciones de verano se convertirán en las más inolvidables de su vida.

Bacterial Physiology and Metabolism

Recent determination of genome sequences for a wide range of bacteria has made in-depth knowledge of prokaryotic metabolic function essential in order to give biochemical, physiological, and ecological meaning to the genomic information. Clearly describing the important metabolic processes that occur in prokaryotes under different conditions and in different environments, this advanced text provides an overview of the key cellular processes that determine bacterial roles in the environment, biotechnology, and human health. Prokaryotic structure is described as well as the means by which nutrients are transported into cells across membranes. Glucose metabolism through glycolysis and the TCA cycle are discussed, as well as other trophic variations found in prokaryotes, including the use of organic compounds, anaerobic fermentation, anaerobic respiratory processes, and photosynthesis. The regulation of metabolism through control of gene expression and control of the activity of enzymes is also covered, as well as survival mechanisms used under starvation conditions.
