When a polypeptide is in its native conformation,there are weak interactions between its R groups. However, when it is denatured

there are similar interactions between the protein groups and water.What then accounts for the greater stability of the native conformation?

Answer:

In the unfolded polypeptide, there are ordered solvation shells of water around the protein

groups. The number of water molecules involved in such ordered shells is reduced when the protein

folds, resulting in higher entropy. Hence, the lower free energy of the native conformation.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. your running speed 1.5 m/s

B. your mass 70 kg

C. your de Broglie wavelength 6.32x10^{-36}m

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the equation for the calculation of the Broglie wavelength is:

\lambda =\frac{h}{m*v}

We can assume a running speed of about 1.5 m/s and a mass of 70 kg, so the resulting Broglie wavelength is:

\lambda =\frac{6.626x10^{-34}kg\frac{m}{s} }{70kg*1.5\frac{m}{s} }\\\\\lambda =6.32x10^-36m

Best regards!

Which of the following statements is true of proteins?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The answer is Denaturation is reversible

Explanation:

Denaturation of proteins is the process whereby there is a disruption in the tertiary, quaternary or secondary structure of proteins which causes a conformation change in its action

denaturation is reversible, that is, the proteins can regain their native state when the denaturing influence is removed. This process can be called renaturation.
