Answer:
11. The behaviors and physical characteristics of species that allow them to live successfully in their environment are called adaptations.
Explanation:
Adaptations <em>are a process that organisms go through to become better suited for their environment to help them be better suited to survive.</em>
11 and 12 seem to be right :) For 13, only organisms which are homozygotic for a certain gene (aa) express a recessive phenotype.
14. This dna exchange between the homologous chromosomes is called crossing-over.
15. geneticly linked or coupled, the phenomenon is known as genetic linkage
16. and 17. also seem all right :)
Answer:
Each protein with a specific structure and function
The unique three dimensional shape of proteins is based on several superimposed levels of structure
Explanation:
Proteins are essential nutrients for human and a vital source of fuel for building body tissues. They are made up of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. These amino acids act as precursor to nucleic acids, hormones, immune, repair of tissues among others.
Proteins contain 20 amino acids which are the building block for proteins. These amino acids can be reformed to create millions of protein in human body in which each protein has specific structure and function.
The three dimensional arrangement of atoms in an amino acid chain is know as the protein structure. The precise shape formed determine the protein function.
