Amino acids are acids on one hand, and a base on the other hand.

<h3>What is an acid?</h3>

An acid is a substance that produces hydrogen or hydroxonium ions as the only positively charged ion when it ionizes.

All amino acids have an amine group -NH_2 and a carboxylic group -COOH.

The carboxylic group ionizes such that:

COOH -- > COO^- + H^+

The presence of the amine group enables amino acids to also act as a base.

a cell is placed in a solution of 3% starch and 3% glucose. After several hours, glucose is detected outside of the cell, but st
Alex17521 [72]

Answer and Explanation:

The cell was placed in a hypertonic solution. Glucose is a monosaccharide while starch is a polysaccharide. The concentration on the outside is higher compared to that on the inside. The cells have cell membrane that is semi-permeable.

Movement of molecules is dependent on the concentation gradient. However, the size of molecules determine the diffusion rate. Small and light molecules diffuse faster than large and heavy molecules thus glucose diffused faster than starch.

The cell membrane being permeable suggested that it allows molecules of small sizes to pass but not large ones.

Talja [164]

The correct answer is: a. n+1, n+1, n-1, n-1

Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate properly during mitosis  or meiosis. There are three forms of nondisjunction:  

1. failure of a pair of homologous chromosomes to separate in meiosis I ,  

2. failure of sister chromatids to separate during meiosis II, and  

3. failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis.

As a consequence of nondisjunction abnormal chromosome numbers appears. If nondisjunction occurs during the meiosis I (anaphase I), this means that at least one pair of homologous chromosomes did not separate. The consequence is two cells that have an extra copy of one chromosome and two cells that lack that chromosome.
