Aminopeptidases are enzymes that cleave polypeptides, or proteins,at the N terminus, or the amino end. Protein hydrolysis is breaking down proteins into amino acids by adding water. Aminopeptidases are enzymes that cause protein hydrolysis. Once the protein is broken down into amino acids, the amino acids can be metabolized. Usually the body uses carbohydrates or lipids for metabolism, but in rare cases, such as starvation, proteins can be broken down and used for energy.
Protein metabolism starts with the enzyme,pepsin, in the stomach and the smaller polypeptides travel to the small intestine where trypsin and chymotrypsin break them down into amino acids. Most of the newly available amino acids are combined to form new proteins. If the body has no need for proteins, they are converted to glucose or ketones and are decomposed. Breaking down amino acids results in nitrogen, which is converted to urine. In starvation, protein is broken down to amino acids and amino acids are broken down to oxaloacetate acid, pyruvate and acetyl coA and these intermediates are used in the Kreb cycle to produce ATP.
Affirmative, that is correct.
A genetic disorder is nothing more than an abnormal occurrence in a genome, which means that if you change DNA you'll change the genome, and if the change isn't acceptable, genetic disorders can occur easily.
Genetic disorders is a fun field within genetics, and it isn't easy. The functioning of a gene might be an easy concept now a days, but we haven't mastered it. For example, it's not like maths:
- Somebody comes up with a new, unsolved problem, and tries to solve it, and while doing that, the person can create laws, theorems, equations, etc.
Once you come up against a genetic disorder (you can't just create a genetic disorder to study it) you have to study the genetic disorder itself, what caused it and why.

Answer:
The s-p value is a measure of the difference in time between the TIME OF ARRIVAL OF THE FIRST P WAVE and the FIRST S WAVE.
Explanation:
The s-p value is important in measuring the time in which the P and S wave arrives a seismic revising station from an earthquake.
The P and S wave are body waves, a class of seismic waves that travels through the interior of the Earth.
P wave travels faster than S waves.
P waves are involved in the forward and backward movement of matter.
S waves are involved in the side- to-side (perpendicular) movement of matter.
