Answer:

-often function as enzymes or transport proteins  ⇒ globular proteins

-peptide chains arranged in long strands, or fibers  ⇒ fibrous proteins

-peptide chains highly folded into spherical shapes  ⇒ globular proteins

-keratins  ⇒ fibrous proteins

-hemoglobin  ⇒ globular proteins

-water-soluble  ⇒ globular proteins

-collagens  ⇒ fibrous proteins

-insoluble in water  ⇒ fibrous proteins

-generally function in structure and support ⇒ fibrous proteins

Explanation:

<u>Fibrous proteins </u>are composed by large polypeptide chains which interact each other and form large structures. They have water insoluble and have structural and protection functions- they are components of cells and tissues. Examples are: collagen, fibronectin, keratin, elastin, actin.

<u>Globular proteins</u> have a spherical compact structure in which hydrophobic aminoacids are buried inside the structure and hydrophilic aminoacids (which can interact with water molecules) are exposed to the exterior medium. For this, they are water soluble. They have often transport and catalytic functions. For example: hemoglobin, mioglobin, albumin, enzymes in general.

The MOST distinctive feature of ape dentition, which clearly distinguishes apes from Old World monkeys, is
Ugo [173]

The most distinctive feature of ape dentition, which clearly distinguishes apes from Old World monkeys, is a Y-5 molar pattern.

<h3>What is the Y-5 molar pattern?</h3>
  • This is a distinctive type of molar teeth pattern found in apes and hominoids.
  • In this, 5 cusps or raised surfaces are present on the grinding surface of teeth, roughly forming a Y- shape. Therefore, this is also known as Y-5 pattern.
  • Whereas Old world monkeys have only 4 cusps on their lower molars present in a bilophodont pattern.
  • A Y-5 molar is formed when the tooth is divided into different pieces which form the complete structure of the tooth.
  • In bilophodont pattern the tooth is divided into 2 symmetric sections.
  • The dental formula of apes is 2.1.2.3/2.1.2.3 i.e. 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars, 3 molars.

Which of the following best describes the solar radiation absorbed by and radiated from earth?
vovangra [49]

Answer: c. The Earth’s surface is responsible for a small fraction of heat radiation to space.

Explanation:

In later ages the large amount of sun's energy is reflected back by the terrestrial surface back to the space. But now due to the abundance of large concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is responsible for the absorption of thermal energy from sunlight by these gases causing the atmosphere to be hot. This is the reason of global warming. Now only small fraction of heat is radiated back to the space.
