Liula [17]3 years ago

Protein folding is determined by a variety of factors, from the amino acid composition all the way through to primary, secondary and tertiary structures of the proteins. Proteins fold in water environments, and how they fold is determined by the hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity and charge of amino acids. Amino acids that are hydrophobic will face away from water environments, while hydrophilic amino acids will face towards water environments. This gives rise to primary and secondary structures such as alpha-helices and beta-sheets. Among these are a variety of structures that form the tertiary structures. The different types of amino acids play an essential role in this, as they are the building blocks of proteins and can affect the structures of proteins because of their charge and affinity for water.

Many times people visit the doctor requesting the use of antibiotics to treat colds and viral infections. How is the doctor just
umka2103 [35]
I believe A is the most correct (i assume it's about antibiotics - they actually DO harm our immune system in some way).
B is partially correct because, the colds indeed should be treated by anti-viral medication (because the virus is a cause of typical cold) but using antibiotics during recovery is needed only when an additional bacterial infection occurs as a complication after the viral infection. and it doesn't happen very often.
C - what works? antibiotics doesn't work for viral infections (colds). anti-viral medication do.
D i won't discuss.
I am sorry for a so long answer. but your question is so linguistically twisted that i am not sure which of the following choices is actually correct because of a big amount of mistakes.
