A sample of digestive juice was removed from the stomach of a pig. The juice was placed in a test tube along with some grains of

wheat. A second test tube was set up containing an equal number of wheat grains, with distilled water rather than digestive juice. The test tubes were kept for 8 hours at 40 degrees C. After 8 hours the wheat inside the digestive juice had broken into tiny particles. The grains of wheat, in the water, were wet but otherwise unchanged.

Digestive juice is the name for all juices secreted by the organs from the digestive system such as salivary glands, stomach, pancreas and liver. All of them contain enzymes that are responsible for food (macromolecule) break down. Digestive juice from the stomach contains enzyme protease (pepsinogen) which breaks down proteins and stomach acids which is involved in chemical breakdown of food materials. So, that is why the wheat grains are broken into tiny particles.

Name two types of evidence used to support the theory of evolution. Explain how scientists use each type of evidence to provide
TEA [102]
Evidence for evolution, in other words evidence of common descent, include fossils, which have shown a (fairly) steady change in morphology over time for some species. An example would be horse hooves: we have fossils that show when they were still three toed, then two toed, then one toe in our present day horses. Another piece of evidence is vestigial organs. An example of vestigial organs is wings in some flightless birds, such as the kiwi. Their ancestors used it in order to fly across the marine barrier into New Zealand, but natural selection and random genetic drift made them quickly lose the ability to fly. Nonetheless, they still have their wings, however small. It can be assumed that eventually, their wings would be reduced to small stubs fused to other nearby bones, as has been observed in their cousins.

Valine is an amino acid used to make proteins. It is an essential amino acid meaning the body cannot synthesize it and thus, it
valentinak56 [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The correct option is Option C i.e. its hydrophobic. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The side chain of valine is isopropyl group. It is a hydrocarbon side chain. Isopropane is a hydrophobic compound. So as it joins with the amino acid skeleton as a variable group, it makes the whole amino acid hydrophobic.

Its hydrophobic nature is well evident from the disease of sickle cell anaemia. The replacement of hydrophilic glutamate by hydrophobic valine makes the interaction of haemoglobin by changing other components.
