The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

What functional feature(s) does the phosphate group contribute to the structure of a phospholipid? select all that apply. select
sergejj [24]
The phosphate group contribute the following functional features to the structure of phospholipids:
1. Negative charge to interact with water.
2. Place to attach another small molecule. 
The phosphate group is made up of four atoms of oxygen which are attached to one atom of phosphorus. This molecule has a net negative charge of -3. In the phospholipid molecule, the phosphate enhanced the polarity of the phospholipid head by mean of its negative charge which react with water. Phosphate group also provide a point where other small molecules such as alcohol, serine, etc can be attached.

Two different proteins X and Y are dissolved in aqueous solution at 37 °C. The proteins bind in a 1:1 ratio to form XY. A soluti
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Kc of reaction is 20.

Explanation:

The two proteins are X and Y.

The [X] = 1mM

[Y]=1mM

At equilibrium, [X] = 0.2mM  [Y] = 0.2mM

we know that equilibrium constant is:

Kc=\frac{[Products]}{[Reactants]}=\frac{[XY]}{[X][Y]}

[XY]= 1-0.20=0.80 mM

putting values:

Kc=\frac{0.80}{0.20X0.20}=20
