The answer is 12.5%.
Each gram of protein has four calories. Therefore, 50 grams of protein contain 200 calories. In order to find the percentage of total energy intake that comes from protein, we need to do the division: 200/1600 * 100 = 12.5. Protein is needed for body growth and maintenance and energy.

What is the primary function of chloroplasts?
galina1969 [7]
The primary function of the chloroplasts in a plant is to convert light from the sun into glucose and energy in a process that is known as photosynthesis. This energy is then used by the plant cells for incredibly important functions such as growth and repair, so the chloroplasts are amongst the most necessary parts of any plant.

A frameshift mutation that occurs very early in a protein sequence would have what effect on the protein's structure? see sectio
ExtremeBDS [4]
I think a frameshift mutation that occurs very early in a protein sequence would have an effect on the structure of the protein such that the primary, secondary, and tertiary structures would be altered. A frameshift mutation occurs when a protein is drastically altered because of an insertion or a deletion. Insertions and deletions cause a change in the length of a gene, which causes a shift in the codon reading frame.
