What type of wave do the contractions of the snake muscles make as the snake moves forward

S_A_V [24]

Actually, there are four kinds of reptile motion:

Concertina - vermiform. Circular muscles around the snake squeeze the front of the snake's body out long, then the latter half is pulled forward.

Rectilinear crawling - Belly scutes are moved forward individually in a wave-like motion.

Side-winding - Snake's version of "walking". Use by several species to move over fluidic substrates, such as sand.

Lateral undulation - Most common form of movement. Snake presses on alternating pressure points to force body forward (or backward)

Draw the product that valine forms when it reacts with excess CH3CH2OH and HCl followed by a wash with aqueous base.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Product: ethyl L-valinate

Explanation:

If we want to understand what it is the molecule produced we have to analyze the reagents. We have valine an amino acid, in this kind of compounds we have an amine group ( $NH_2$ ) and a carboxylic acid group ( $COOH$ ). Additionally, we have an alcohol ( $CH_3CH_2OH$ ) in the presence of HCl (a strong acid) in the first step, and a base ( $OH^-$ ).

When we have an acid and an alcohol in a vessel we will have an esterification reaction. In other words, an ester is produced. As the first step, the oxygen in the C=O (in the carboxylic acid group) would be protonated. In the second step, the ethanol attacks the carbon in the C=O of the carboxylic acid group producing a new bond between the oxygen in the ethanol and the carbon in the carboxylic acid. In step 3, a proton is transferred to produce a better leaving group ( $H_2O$ ). In step 4, a water molecule leaves the main structure to produce again the double bond C=O. Finally, a base ( $OH^-$ ) removes the hydrogen from the C=O bond to produce ethyl L-valinate
