Why don’t free amino acids have peptide bonds? What is a free amino acid exactly?
slega [8]

Explanation:

Free amino acid do not have a peptide bond , as the amino acid act as a monomer which multiplies and linked via peptide bond to generate protein chain .

A free amino acid have a carbonly group (- COOH ) and a -NH₂ group .

The formation of protein chain require at least two amino acids linked via peptide chain .

The role of peptide chain only comes in case of protein , because it acts as a linking species .

Hence , free amino acid does not have any peptide chain .

How do prions, which are misfolded proteins, infect organisms?how do prions, which are misfolded proteins, infect organisms?how
Fynjy0 [20]
When a prion enters a healthy organism, it induces existing, properly folded proteins to convert into the misfolded prion form. In this way, the prion acts as a template to guide the misfolding of more proteins into prion form. In yeast, this refolding is assisted by chaperone proteins such as Hsp104. These refolded prions can then go on to convert more proteins themselves, leading to a chain reaction resulting in large amounts of the prion form.

All triploblastic animals are:
AnnZ [28]
The answer is D (although the way it is worded is a little off)

Not all triploblasts are eucoelomate (true coelom/body cavity surrounded entirely by mesoderm). There are two main phylums which are counterexamples: Platyhelminthes (flatworms) and Nematoda (roundworms). Flatworms are acoelomate (lack a coelom) while nematodes are pseudocoelomates (they have a false coelom, surrounded with both mesoderm and endoderm).

B is incorrect because most are not radically symmetrical, a good example being Chordata (including humans)

C is incorrect because schizocoely occurs mostly in protostomes (although some deuterostomes have it too). Schizocoely is when a mass of mesoderm cells migrate to form the coelom, which doesn’t happen in all embryos.

Letter D is the answer. Although there might be some misconceptions about this, mainly Echinodermata, which are radially symmetrical as adults. However, their larvae develop with bilateral symmetry, so letter D should say “bilateral symmetry at one point in their lives.” But bilateral symmetry is present in all triploblasts, which is why letter D is the answer.


Hope that helped! If I made a mistake, please let me know and I’ll amend my response.
