Answer:
There are 20 different standard L-α-amino acids used by cells for protein construction. Amino acids, as their name indicates, contain both a basic amino group and an acidic carboxyl group. This difunctionality allows the individual amino acids to join in long chains by forming peptide bonds: amide bonds between the -NH2 of one amino acid and the -COOH of another. Sequences with fewer than 50 amino acids are generally referred to as peptides, while the terms, protein and polypeptide, are used for longer sequences. A protein can be made up of one or more polypeptide molecules. The end of the peptide or protein sequence with a free carboxyl group is called the carboxy-terminus or C-terminus. The terms, amino-terminus and N-terminus, describe the end of the sequence with a free α-amino group.
The amino acids differ in structure by the substituent on their side chains. These side chains confer different chemical, physical, and structural properties to the final peptide or protein. The structures of the 20 amino acids commonly found in proteins are shown in Figure 1. Each amino acid has both a one-letter and three-letter abbreviation. These abbreviations are commonly used to simplify the written sequence of a peptide or protein.

Depending on the side-chain substituent, an amino acid can be classified as being acidic, basic or neutral. Although 20 amino acids are required for synthesis of various proteins found in humans, we can synthesize only ten. The remaining 10 are called essential amino acids and must be obtained in the diet.
The amino acid sequence of a protein is encoded in DNA. Proteins are synthesized by a series of steps called transcription (the use of a DNA strand to make a complimentary messenger RNA strand – mRNA) and translation (the mRNA sequence is used as a template to guide the synthesis of the chain of amino acids which make up the protein). Often, post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation or phosphorylation, occur which are necessary for the biological function of the protein. While the amino acid sequence makes up the primary structure of the protein, the chemical/biological properties of the protein are very much dependent on the three-dimensional or tertiary structure.

A) Fats provide 12 kcals of energy per gram.
The answer is true, they are only single celled!
The process of fusing two or more DNA molecules to produce a hybrid is known as recombinant DNA. Restrictions endonucleases and ligases are two classes of enzymes that enable the technique.
When a restriction endonuclease detects a particular DNA sequence, it makes cuts inside or near that sequence. The recognition sequence of a restriction enzyme will haphazardly appear on every (1–4)n bases along a random DNA chain. The equation states how many fragments ends (measured in moles) are produced when a restriction enzyme cuts DNA.
Moles of DNA ends =2x(grams of DNA)/(number of bp)(660 g/mol / bp).
The equation describes how many ends are produced when circular DNA is digested by a restriction enzyme.
Mole ends=2x(moles DNA)x number of restriction sites.
The following equation can be used to determine how many ends are produced during the digestion of a linear molecule by a restriction endonuclease.
Mole ends=2x(molesDNA)number of restriction sites +[2x(moles of DNA)].

I n the F1 generation, there will be no recessive offspring but in the F2 generation there is a 25% of offspring being recessive.
