Its called the DNA,
It stores all of our genetic information that we inherited to our child.
It also carries most of the specific instructions used in the development , functioning, and reproduction of all living organisms and virus.
Capturing and putting coded bands on the birds in Virginia,
then recording the bands seen on birds in the summer location would be the best
way for scientists to distinguish between the birds they study in Virginia and
flocks in the summer location.
Sugar molecules, cells use carbon dioxide and energy from the sun to make sugar molecules. They are moved into the sieve elements (phloem cells) through active transport. Water follows the sugar molecules into the sieve elements through osmosis (since water passively diffuses into regions of higher solute concentration).
Answer: If you're a kid, your heart is about the same size as your fist, and if you're an adult, it's about the same size as two fists. Your heart beats about 100,000 times in one day and about 35 million times in a year. During an average lifetime, the human heart will beat more than 2.5 billion times.
The four levels of protein structure are distinguished from one another by the degree of complexity in the polypeptide chain. A single protein molecule may contain one or more of the protein structure types: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure. 1. Primary Structure: describes the unique order in which amino acids are linked together to form a protein.
2. Secondary Structure: refers to the coiling or folding of a polypeptide chain that gives the protein its 3-D shape. There are two types of secondary structures observed in proteins. One type is the alpha (α) helix structure. This structure resembles a coiled spring and is secured by hydrogen bonding in the polypeptide chain. The second type of secondary structure in proteins is the beta (β) pleated sheet. This structure appears to be folded or pleated and is held together by hydrogen bonding between polypeptide units of the folded chain that lie adjacent to one another
3. Tertiary Structure: refers to the comprehensive 3-D structure of the polypeptide chain of a protein.
4. Quaternary Structure: is the structure of a protein macromolecule formed by interactions between multiple polypeptide chains. Each polypeptide chain is referred to as a subunit. Proteins with quaternary structure may consist of more than one of the same type of protein subunit.
