What is essential to the function of a protein?

Biology
1 answer:
nirvana33 [79]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The types of R-groups

It's shape

Explanation:

The structure of an enzyme is strongly related to its function. For example an enzyme structure defines its active site and how that site interacts with the substrate for catalysis of a reaction.

On the other hand, the structure of a protein is highly dependent on the interactions of the R-groups of the amino acids that make up the proteins. The interactions are dependent on the charges of these groups that stabilize protein structures such loops of beta-sheets and alpha-helices. If these charges are affected then the conformation of the protein will also most likely be altered.

What happens when the s phase cannot enter the g0 phase?
Shtirlitz [24]
<span>The importance of the G0 phase is that during cell division when the cell get a signal that there are enough of cells (not more required) or there is a mutation in the cell that need to be fixed before they differentiate fully or the cell during its division gets damage then it is signalled to rest, and it is this phase that cell leave the cycle and quit dividing. It could be temporary resting period (so when cell again required, or damaged got fixed) then the cells will again join the cycle and continue to divide again or it can also be permanent for example neurons, which are resting in G0 phase and never divides again.</span>

(c) Name all the classes of Chordata which is warm-blooded (endothermic).
ddd [48]

The classes of chordata which are warm-blooded are birds and mammals.

Explanation:

Warm-blooded animals are those which can maintain their body temperature at a constant.  

These classes of chordates balance their internal body temperature with that of the outer environment. When the outer environment is cold, they increase their internal temperature by producing more heat; and when it is hot outside they reduce their internal temperature by cooling themselves.  

The food consumed by a warm-blooded animal fuels to maintain a constant body temperature and hence they require more food.  

Warm blooded animals cool themselves with the help of sweat glands.  

The skin and other parts like fur in birds help to keep the animals warm during winter. Birds also shed their fur in hot season to keep them light. Birds migrate to warm regions during winter.

These animals have high stamina and energy to survive environmental changes. They maintain their temperature through endothermy, homeothermy or tachymetabolism.

Whale living in water is the fish which is also warm blooded because it is a mammal.

Why would a ecosystem that had a high species diversity be more productive and effective?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

the higher the diversity, the higher the populations of all the

photosynthetic organisms

Explanation:

Diversity in plant allows random mating also known as panmixia. It allows plant have equal chances of being mated too by any among them creating variations in the population. It leads to less fixed gene, reduce genetic drift leading to an increases population as some lethal gene may be lost due to recombination of gene among individual plant.

Where there is no diversity some gene becomes fixed leading to perpetuation of some traits that may be harmful in a population but diversity allows for the generation of new gene and allele frequency within a population.
