Gwar [14]3 years ago

Answer:

there are four types of protein structure;

  • primary
  • secondary
  • tertiary
  • quatenary

Explanation:

A protein is a very large biological molecule composed of a chain of smaller molecules called amino acids. Thousands of different proteins are present in a cell, the synthesis of each type of protein being directed by a different gene.

Determining the process by which proteins fold into particular shapes, characteristic of their amino acid sequence, is commonly called "the protein folding problem", an area of study at the forefront of computational biology. One approach to studying the protein folding process is the application of statistical mechanics techniques and molecular dynamics simulations to the study of protein folding. Protein folding enables them to perform different diverse functions.

Protein have a three-dimensional structure that enables them to perform diverse functions like transsport,structural support as building blocks and metabolic regulators as enzymes and hormones.

Each cell has a structure that separates the inside of the cell from.the environment. What cell is this?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Either the cell wall or the cell membrane.

Explanation:

All cells have cell membranes which line the outside of the cell, and some cells have cell walls, which also line the outside of the cell. Since all cells have cell membranes I am inclined to believe that the correct answer would be cell membranes.

Describe the direction of the flow of thermal energy if a bowl of ice cream sits on the counter of the kitchen.
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The bowl of ice cream contains ice cream with temperature below freezing point. A hot body contains more thermal energy than a cold body. Thermal energy only flows from a hot body to a cold body, and not the reverse.

The bowl of ice cream contain less thermal energy than it sorrounding envoirment (air and the kitchen counter), this creates a temperature gradient that forces thermal energy from the sorrounding envoirment into the bowl of ice cream because, according to thermodynamics, all bodies always tend to be in thermal equilibrium with its sorrounding. The thermal energy flows into the bowl of ice cream until it has the same thermal energy with its sorrounding; bringing the thermal gradient between them to zero.
