how do the components of sugar molecules combine to form proteins and other larger carbon-based molecules

Well I want to first point out sugars molecules DO NOT form amino acids. In addition, a sugar by definition is a 6 carbon ring. All molecules form bonds primarily based the valance electrons of each atom or molecule, and to a lesser degree electronegativity. Valance electrons refer to the number of electrons in the outer shell of a neutral atom. All atoms want to have 8 electrons around them, this is referred to as the octet rule. Therefore the total number of bonds an atom can for is 8-the # valance electrons. For example Oxygen has 6 valance electrons and can form 2bonds. This is the basics. Atoms are able to move and share electrons to form more bonds, or double and triple bonds.

I'll do my best to help, but do keep in mind that this is just an educated guess on my part.

Characteristics of Living Viruses:
- Uses energy (nonliving things can't use energy, for obvious reasons)
- Exhibits growth and development (for the same reasons as above, nonliving things can't grow)
- Made up of one or more cells (cells are alive, so nonliving viruses can't be made up of living things)
- Possesses internal organization (viruses can be complex, as most living things are)
- Eliminates waste

Characteristics of Nonliving Viruses:
- Defined boundary (this is a bit vague because a defined boundary isn't suggestive of life or not, so it could really be either or)

Because most of the answers fit with the living characteristics, it makes me think there is something wrong with my answer, but I did some research and that seems pretty accurate. However, I'm not a professional, so I could be wrong. I'm sorry I couldn't help more

Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition the measure of how hot or cold something is

MrMuchimi

I would say your answer is temperature... as it is the measure or degree of heat present in a substance or object, but because I can't see your list of options, I can't be certain.

Hope this is somewhat helpful!

Question 2 of 25

The sentence a Venus flytrap closes its leaves when its trigger hairs are stimulated is the best example of a living thing responding to its environment (option B).

<h3>What does characterize living organisms?</h3>

The main characteristics of living organisms refer to features shared by different life forms, which are essential to sustaining life, i.e. their metabolic activities in order to perpetuate across time.

One of the main characteristics that sustain life is the ability to respond to environmental stimuli. In this regard, it has been debated if this feature is the main characteristic that sustains life, but detractors of this idea state that it is not the main feature because viruses are able to respond to stimuli and they are not alive.

Therefore, with this data, we can see that the ability to respond to stimuli is one of the main features of living organisms.
