3 0

Answer:

Hydrogen bond

Explanation:    

The α-helix and the β-pleated sheet are secondary protein structures. They are formed within a polypeptide due to interactions between the atoms of the backbone.

Both the alpha helix and beta pleated sheets are held in shape(stabilized) by hydrogen bonds which form between the carbonyl (C= O)of one Amino acid and amino(N-H) of another amino acid.  

This bonding is gives them their structure.

Which fossils provide information as to the mode of formation of an oxygen-rich atmosphere by about 2 billion years ago? multipl
Dominik [7]
The fossils that provide information on the formation of an oxygen-rich atmosphere are the stromatilites from the Precambrian era. These are layered and columnar fossils consisting mainly of cyanobacteria which were the original life form back then. These bacteria took in carbon dioxide and produced oxygen by photosynthesis as early as 2.5 billion years ago (the earth is about 4.5 billion yrs old).

Explain how two cell structures give plants their shape at a macro level
VARVARA [1.3K]

The Structural Organization of Cells. The cell is the smallest matter that still absorbs the characteristics of life. All cells have three basic parts, a plasma membrane splits each cell from the environment, permits the flow of molecules across the membrane, and consist receptors that can affect the cell’s activities. A DNA-containing region occupies a portion of the interior. The cytoplasm contains membrane-bound compartments (except bacteria), particles, and filaments & end ash; all bathed in a semifluid substance. Eukaryotic cells are defined by their possession of a membrane-bound nucleus. Prokaryotic cells have no defined nucleus; the only representatives are bacteria.
