Why don’t free amino acids have peptide bonds? What is a free amino acid exactly?

Biology
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Free amino acid do not have a peptide bond , as the amino acid act as a monomer which multiplies and linked via peptide bond to generate protein chain .

A free amino acid have a carbonly group (- COOH ) and a -NH₂ group .

The formation of protein chain require at least two amino acids linked via peptide chain .

The role of peptide chain only comes in case of protein , because it acts as a linking species .

Hence , free amino acid does not have any peptide chain .

.. Which of the following mutations would have the potential to affect future generations of
ch4aika [34]

Answer choices:

  • A frame shift mutation in the X chromosome of a cheek cell
  • A chromosomal mutation in the Y chromosome of a kidney cell
  • A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
  • A substitution mutation in the third chromosome of a uterus cell

Answers:

A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell

Explanation:

Only mutations that affect the germ line are passed on to the next generation. Therefore, only mutations in the egg and sperm of an individual have the potential to affect the next generation.

Mutations in cheek cells, kidney cells, and uterus cells might cause cell death or cancer. This genetic material is not passed on to the next generation, only the egg and sperm contribute this material. Therefore, only mutations here will affect the generation.
