Answer:
<em>In a population, natural selection acts on phenotype of individuals.</em>
Explanation:
Natural selection tends to favour those organisms of a population which carry traits that allow them to be better adapted to the environment and these traits are passed on to their offsprings. Natural selection tends to act on the phenotype of the population whereas evolution is the phenomenon which changes the allele frequencies. Natural selection acts on individual organisms of a population whereas the change in populations, on the whole, arises due to evolution.
The testes are responsible for producing sperm cells.
2. The endosymbiotic theory suggests that a eukaryotic cell is the result of one prokaryotic cell eating another.
During the krebs cycle NADH (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and FADH (<span>Flavin adenine dinucleotide) are made and used in the electron transport chan. Hope this helps!</span>
Proteins are polymers composed of repeating units of amino acids, linked via peptide bonds (bonds between the amine and carboxyl groups of the adjacent amino acids). All proteins have a primary, secondary and tertiary structure and some, such as haemoglobin, have a quaternary structure.
Primary structure of the proteins are the sequence of amino acids and their order. The "R" regions of the amino acids determine the proteins secondary tertiary and quaternary structures.
In the secondary structure, the protein folds into either an alpha helix or a beta pleated sheet. This occurs due to hydrogen bonding between the "R" group of the amino acids.
The tertiary structure gives the protein its 3D shape. Here it is folded further and more bonds (such as disulphide bonds) also form.
In the quaternary structure, prosthetic groups (e.g. a haem group for haemoglobin) is added. If the protein has more than one protein chains, here the chains join to form the final protein.
