What is different about the secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure of each protein?

1 answer:

3 0

Primary structure is the order in which what amino acid bound the other with a peptide bond. This is coded for by the order of codons in a gene

secondary structure is how the chains on amino acids interact with each other to form beta barrels and alpha helixes. This structure is determined by hydrogen bonds between the different amino acids

Tertiary structure is when the secondary structures interact with each other through disulphide bonds, hydrogen bonds hydrophobic/ hydrophilic interactions etc. This is all determined by the placement of certain anino acids within the proteins secondary structure

hope this helped you!!!!

A piece of copper has a volume of 100.0cm^3 (3power) if the mass of the copper is 890g, what is the density of copper??

Bas_tet [7]

Density=mass/volume
Data:
mass=890 g
volume=100 cm³

Density=890 g/100 cm³=8.9 g/cm³

answer: the density of the copper is 8.9 g/cm³

esulfur burns easily .Iron is attracted by magnets .the mineral made by sulfur and iron ,but it does not burn and it is not attr

vladimir2022 [97]

The mineral is Iron Sulphide. It is not a mixture, but a compound. A mixture is when two substances are together, but not chemically bonded. For example, if I add food colouring to water, I have made a mixture because the food colouring has not chemically bonded to the water. If I react Iron with Suphur, the resulting substance is a compound. The resulting mineral will not burn or be magnetic because the compound has different properties to the elements themselves. For example, chlorine gas is toxic and sodium reacts violently with water, but sodium chloride is table salt, nor toxic nor explosive. Hope this helps

. Why a chlorine atom with an atomic number of 17 will be negatively charged when its valance shell gains an electron.

sesenic [268]

Explanation:

When chlorine bonds and becomes stable, (had a full outer electron shell), because we know that chlorine has 7 electrons in it’s outer shell, it requires 1 to gain noble gas structure. So, when if bonds with an element and then becomes stable, the gaining of an electron means it becomes a negatively charged ion. (an ion being a charged particle.)
