Similarities:

Both move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration through a partially permeable membrane.

Differences:

forsale [732]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete, however, the side chain is usually the part of an amino acid that is either hydrophilic or hydrophobic in nature. When the side chain has little or no polarity (i.e they lack the ability to interact with highly polar water molecules), the amino acid exhibits hydrophobic properties. Hydrophobic (water-fearing) substances are substances that do not interact/dissolve in water.

The inside of the barrel-shaped LDL protein consists of hydrophobic amino acids, while its outside portions in contact with the blood fluid consist of hydrophilic amino acids.

LDL is a type of lipoprotein, i.e., it contains protein as well as lipid (cholesterol). The full form of LDL is Low Density Lipid. LDL is considered to be the bad cholesterol for the body. It can cause diseases of the heart like heart attack or stroke.

Amino acids are the essential molecule that act as a monomer for the formation of proteins inside the body. They contain an amino group and a carboxylic group attached to the same carbon atom. There are also a hydrogen atom and a variable R group attached to the carbon, also called the alpha carbon.
