About 8.7 million (give or take 1.3 million) is the new, estimated total number of species on Earth -- the most precise calculation ever offered -- with 6.5 million species on land and 2.2 million in oceans. Announced by the Census of Marine Life, the figure is based on a new analytical technique. The number of species on Earth had been estimated previously at 3 million to 100 million.

bulgar [2K]


The best answer is A.

The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure. The primary structure is the sequence of amino acids  in each polypeptide chain which make up a protein.

The sequence of amino acids is basically a list of amino acids that are linked to each other to form a chain which is known as a polypeptide chain.

The structure of the finished protein will depend largely on the first  (primary) chain of amino acids to be produced to make up that protein.
