Answer and explanation;

-Aba is a suitable replacement because Aba and Cys have approximately the same sized side chain and are similarly hydrophobic.

-However, Aba cannot form disulfide bonds so it will not be a suitable replacement if these are required.

-Alpha-Aminobutyric acid is biosynthesized by transaminating oxobutyrate, a metabolite in isoleucine biosynthesis.

We could design an experiment where we can manipulate the value of A at will, and we also can observe how the variable B changes.

This is called an experiment, where the objective is to see how the variable B is related to the variable A, and then try to make a model that explains this relationship.
