Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The two ribosomal subunits are named base on their sedmentation rate in a centrifuge. The unit of measurement is the Svedberg unit , a measure of the rate of sedimentation, not the size. This accounts for why fragment names do not add up (70S is made of 50S and 30S). Q: The svedberg unit is a measure of the rate of what, which is tested in a centrifuge? Choices: - precipitation - temperature - secretion - sedimentation A:
Answer:
sedimentation
