Silk is composed of β sheets whose polypeptide chains consist of the repeating sequence of Gly-Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-Ala. Based on thi
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: d.a nonpolar side chain.

Explanation:

  • Protein can be defined as one of the factors which determine the structure as well as the function of a cell.
  • Proteins are composed of polymeric chains of polypeptides, which are made up of amino acid monomers linked to each other by peptide bonds.
  • Amino acids can be broadly categorised into non-polar and polar based on the nature of the side chain.
  • The non-polar amino acids possess hydrocarbon side-chains which are hydrophobic in nature, so they tend to avoid interaction with water molecules and usually remain in the protein interior. They are uncharged and cannot form any hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
  • The polar amino acids possess charged or polar side-chains which are hydrophilic in nature, so they tend to undergo interaction with water molecules and usually remain on the protein surface. They can form hydrogen bonds with molecules of water.
  • Beta sheets can be defined a secondary structure of the protein in which the polypeptide sequence forms horizontal strands which are linked to each other by loops. Each strand interact with each other by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the C=O group of one peptide (amide) bond in one strand with the N-H group of another peptide (amide) bond in another strand.
  • Apart from these bonds, the non-polar side chains of each amino acid in one strand forms hydrophobic or Van der Waals interactions with the non-polar side chains of each amino acid in the other strand. The polar or charged  side chains of the amino acids on each strand form either hydrogen bonds with water molecules or with oppositely charged side chains.
  • In the given question, glycine and alanine are non-polar amino acids but serine is a polar amino acid. The side-chains of the non-polar amino acids will tend to face towards the interior of the beta sheet thereby forming hydrophobic interactions with each other, while the serine will tend to face the exterior of the beta sheet so that it can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
  • As the number of non-polar amino acids is far more than polar amino acids so the effect of non-polar amino acids will prevail in the beta-sheet.

What factor determines the amount of solar energy an area receives?
kondor19780726 [428]
Hmm.this one is complicated .many factors affect the amount of solar energy an area receives but mainly the length of the solar rays.places close to the equator are hotter because the rays are short and the travel less distance.but away from the equator the rays are longer

How do animals with radial symmetry get information
ioda

Answer:

The radial symmetry animals get information through their receptor cells and neurons present all over their body.

Explanation:

Radial symmetry animals can be cut in different directions. The central axis separates it into 2 equal halves and again it can be cut into 4 directions.

e.g. Hydra, sea urchin, starfish, etc

They are invertebrates have sense organs, but these sense organs are not well defined. Each symmetry of the body has sense organs. These radial symmetry organisms have oral and aboral parts.

Sea urchins, starfishes, Hydra are light sensitive. They possess photoreceptor cells in their epithelial linings. Starfishes also sensitive to touch, light, and temperature. Their spines and tube feet have motor nerves, which control their movement.

Eyespots in starfishes also help in detecting objects. It is composed of epithelial cells and responds to light. They lack a brain but have a complex nervous system. This nervous system consists of a sensory nerve and motor nerve. It spreads all over the body. Hence starfishes can react according to the stimuli.
