<span>Due to the fact that horses and zebras can be bred to produce any offspring means that they belong to the same genus (Equus). However the offspring that comes about as a result of this cross breeding (zebroid/zorse) is not a fertile offspring. From these results we can conclude that the zebra and the horse are classified into different species. A horse has 64 chromosomes while a zebra has 46 or 32 chromosomes depending on the species. Their offspring often ends up having 54 chromosomes. This difference in chromosomes dictates that the female offspring not sufficiently fertile and the male sterile.</span>

Describe peptide bonding and provide an example
miskamm [114]

A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed between two amino acids. Living organisms use peptide bonds to form long chains of amino acids, known as proteins. Proteins are used in many roles including structural support, catalyzing important reactions, and recognizing molecules in the environment. A peptide bond is therefore the basis of most biological reactions. Forming peptide bonds is a requirement for all life, and the process is very similar in all forms of life.
