Answer:

The α‑helix is held together by hydrogen bonds between the amide N−H and C=O groups.

Disulfide bonds stabilize secondary structure.

Explanation:

Proteins have primary, secondary, tertiary and quartinary structures.

The secondary structure of a protein is the regular, recurring sequence of amino acid in a polypeptide chain. Secondary structure of proteins give rise to the folding observed in the structure of a protein.

The major secondary structures of a protein are α-helices and β-structures.

Answer:

Synergism

Explanation:

This is an example of Synergism. Synergism is nothing but working out of two medicines together.

Examples of medical synergies are when doctors treat microbial heart infections with ampicillin and Gentamicin and when people with cancer undergo radiation and chemotherapy or more than one chemotherapy drug at a time.

How many moles of gas are in a volume of 44.4L at STP? n=.......mol

aniked [119]

You have to use the molar volume of gas which is 22.4L/mol at STP. To find the number of moles of from a given volume of gas at STP, you need to divide the given volume by 22.4L/mol.
44.4L/22.4L/mol=1.98mol of gas

During laparoscopic surgery , carbon dioxide gas is used to expand the abdomen to help create a larger working space. If 4.80 L

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

5.37 L

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the PV=nRT equation.

First we calculate the amount of CO₂, using the initial given conditions for P, V and T:

P = 785 mmHg ⇒ 785/760 = 1.03 atm

V = 4.80 L

T = 18 °C ⇒ 18 + 273.16 = 291.16 K

1.03 atm * 4.80 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 291.16 K

We solve for n:

n = 0.207 mol

Then we use that value of n for another PV=nRT equation, where T=37 °C (310.16K) and P = 745 mmHg (0.98 atm).

0.98 atm * V = 0.207 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 310.16 K

And we solve for V:

V = 5.37 L

Which gas makes your voice deeper or has the opposite effect on you than helium when you inhale it.

slega [8]

The correct answer is Sulfur Hexafluoride
it’s an inert gas that is known to be six times heavier than the air we breathe. While Helium being lighter makes our voice higher, SF6 makes our voice deeper. The sound travels slower in denser gases which is why our voice will come out deeper and rather slow.
