Polypeptides are synthesized from amino acid building blocks. the condensation reaction between the growing polypeptide chain and the next amino acid to be added involves the loss of <u>a water molecule</u>.

<h3>What are polypeptides?</h3>

Using peptide bonds, short chains of amino acids form peptides. Oligopeptides are chains of fewer than twenty amino acids, and they comprise dipeptides, tripeptides, and tetrapeptides. A polypeptide is a continuous, unbranched peptide chain that is longer.

<h3>Function of polypeptides :</h3>

By joining many amino acids together, polypeptides contribute to the creation of proteins. When two or more polypeptides are joined together to form a protein, the resulting structure is unique to that protein. Polypeptides are peptides with more than 100 amino acid units in them. Amalin and glucagon are two examples.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer: Lipids.

Explanation:

The large carbon -hydrogen bonds(C-H) in chains of lipids makes them ideal storage of energy.

T<u>he more C-H bonds breakage, the higher protons availability from Citric acid cycle NADH and FADH2  and hydrogen atom splitting (to protons and electrons) for  the electron transport chains (ETC</u>), and therefore the higher proton pumps for  more ATP's synthesis in the mitochondria matrix.  

In addition large number of electrons  surrounding carbon atom in fatty acids than other food molecule is added factor.  The transfer of these electrons to oxygen during oxidation of fatty acids releases large amount of energy (9 kilo calorie) into the cells,  more than other food substances

Elis [28]

Neurotransmitter has to be consumed in the diet is not the criteria for neurotransmitter. So the correct option is a.

A neuron releases a signaling chemical called a neurotransmitter across a synaptic gap to influence another cell. Any major body component or target cell that receives the signal may be another neuron, but it could also be a gland or muscle cell. These signals enable you to move your limbs, experience sensations, maintain heartbeat, as well as receive and process all the information your body receives from other internal body parts and your environment.

These signals enable you to move your limbs, experience sensations, maintain heartbeat, as well as receive and process all the information your body receives from other internal body parts and your environment.

The axon terminal, a component of the neuron, is where neurotransmitters are found. They are kept inside synaptic vesicles, which have thin walls. Numerous thousands of neurotransmitter molecules can fit inside each vesicle.

Compare and contrast the alpine and taiga biomes.
Simora [160]

Answer:

The alpine biome is found on five of the seven continents; the taiga biome is only found on three.  Both the alpine and taiga biomes have cold winters with temperatures below freezing and summers that are warm in comparison. The taiga biome has a much higher temperature range in the summer than the alpine biome.
