Imagine a population of small animals. All of the animals in this population have short legs. They all eat the leaves off of the

low shrubs in their environment. One animal happens to be born with a mutation that gives it very long legs. It is the only individual in this population with this mutation, and it makes it very hard for it to eat the leaves so low to the ground. But suddenly there is a fire that burns all of the shrubs, so the only food source is now up in the low tree branches. How might this individual animal with the long-leg mutation affect the entire population?

What can you do to your models of starch and of a polypeptide chain in a protein to make them more accurate?
Pepsi [2]

Polypeptids

A polypeptide is a linear chain (without ramifications) of aminoacids linked by peptidic-bonds. We speak of a polypeptide when the chain contains between 10 and 100 amino acids. Above 100 amino acids are generally referred to as protein.

Among them, multicyclic peptides, phosphorylated peptides or those incorporating non-peptide bonds or conjugated peptides.


Starch

Starch is a mixture of two homopolymers, amylose and amylopectin


* Amylose, slightly branched with short branches and a molecular weight of between 10,000 and 1,000,000 Dalton (600 to 1000 glucose molecules).


* amylopectin or isoamylose, a branched molecule with long branches every 24 to 30 glucose units via α (1-6) bonds. Its molecular weight can range from 1,000,000 to 100,000,000 Dalton (between 10,000 and 100,000 glucose units).


To summarize the structure of the polypeptides is still linear, but the structure of the starch has ramifications.

Why there is a need to adjust the pH of the mixture to 4-.5-5.5 first before proceeding to the next step of putting the yeasts?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Amino acids may be acidic amino acids, or basic amino acids, due to the R group on the amino acids. If the pH is increased, this affects the shape of proteins, by disrupting the bonds in the protein. In the case of fermentation, you say the rate increases when it get's more acidic - when the pH is lower.
