A long carbon and hydrogen chain and a carboxyl group.

In images of fatty acids (the monomers of Lipids), it is depicted as a long carbon chain with hydrogen on the ends and connected to them as well, yet on the clear side is the carboxyl group.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following statements is true?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

This statement is true: <span>The mineral ores for gold and silver are commonly found in the earth's crust.

These two types of metals are known as native metals because they are naturally occurring within the Earth's stratosphere. These metals are usually found through mining processes because they are often found mixed with sediments and other soil components. One method of acquiring gold is called gold panning while silver is obtained mixed with silver sulfide and sulfosalt minerals.</span>

Answer:

a. conservative replication

b. semi conservative replication

c. dispersive replication

d. discontinuous replication

e. continuous replication

The CORRECT ANSWER IS C.

c. dispersive replication

Explanation:

The attached image shows a single band that becomes lighter (in volume) and increase in darker intensity (in times of color) is revealed with consecutive replications. The major pattern that would produce these outcome is dispersive replication.

Conservative replication do reveal two bands (a 14N for the wholly latest molecule, and a 15N for the totally antiquated molecule) after the initial replication. Therefore, this wholly wrong.

Semi-conservative replication reveal an individual band of transitional weight after the initial replication, followed by two bands following the second replication (one of transitional weight, and the other at the 14N position). These two bands is observed in each following replication, with the transitional weight becoming lighter in color as the 14N band is seen to appear darker in color.

The real pattern gives an individual band that pinpoints to all molecules in an individual replicative cycle possessing the same constituents.

Dispersive replication, has its molecules to be a blend of old (15N) and new (14N) strands. Each replication raises the ratio of new to old strands as it explains the reason an individual band is shown raised (lighter in weight) with every replication.

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

ODD means Oppositional Defiant Disorder while CD means Conduct disorder.

Without initial presence of defiant disorder symptoms, Oppositional defiant disorder are not precursor to the development of conduct disorder.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder are much more predominant in boys than in girls.

According to reseaches carried out,to boys, Oppositional Defiant disorder is a precursor to conduct disorder.
