One method for separating polypeptides makes use of their different solubilities. The solubility of large polypeptides in water

depends upon the relative polarity of their R groups, particularly on the number of ionized groups: the more ionized groups there are, the more soluble the polypeptide.
1. Which of each pair of the polypeptides that follow is more soluble at the indicated pH?
(a) (Gly)20 or (Lys-Ala)3 at pH 7.0:
O (Gly)20
O (Lys-Ala)3
(b) (Glu)20 or (Phe-Met)3 at pH 7.0
O (Glu)20
O (Phe-Met)3

Answer:

(a) (Glu)zo or(Phe-Met)3 at pH 7.0

O (Glu)zo ✔

O (Phe-Met)s ❌

(b) (Gly) zo or (Lys-Ala)3 at pH 7.0:

O (Gly12) ❌

O (Lys-Ala)✔

(c) (Ala-Asp-Gly)s or (Asn-Ser-His)s at pH 3.0:

O (Asn-Ser-His)s ✔

O (Ala-Asp-Gly)s ❌

(d) (Ala-Ser-Gly)s or (Asn-Ser-His)s at pH 6.0:

O(Ala-Ser-Gly)s ❌

O (Asn-Ser-Hish)s ✔

Explanation:

Polypeptides that has polar or charged side chains are more soluble than polypeptides with nonpolar side chains.

(a) At ph 7.0

(Glu)20 is negatively charged at pH 7 and more soluble

(Phe-Met)3 is observed to be less polar and less soluble

(b)At ph 7.0

(Lys-Ala)3 is positively charged (polar) and more soluble

(Gly)20 is uncharged as only the amino- and carboxyl-terminal groups are charged as its less polar and less soluble too.

(c) At pH 6.0

(Asn-Ser-His)5 has polar Asn side chains and partially protonated His side chains and it's more soluble unlike the (Ala-Asp-Gly)s at that pH.

(d) At pH 3.0

(Asn-Ser-His)s as partially protonated carboxylate groups of Asp residues and it is also neutral but the imidazole groups of His residues are fully protonated and positively charged. Hence it's more soluble than the (Ala-Ser-Gly)s at that particular pH.

<h2><em><u>Answer:</u></em></h2>

The five steps that are always taken in scientific research are;

  • Recognizing the problem
  • establishing a hypothesis
  • doing research and assembling data
  • escorting the experiment
  • and finally proceeding to a conclusion
<h2><em><u>Explanation:</u></em></h2>
  • Arya already performs the first two steps; as she first recognize the problem i.e. she observes the dry glass and she also formulate a hypothesis that "the water content in the soil is about two-thirds lower than that of other yards in the area"

  • Now she will collect the data and conduct the experiment on the soil and glass and then she will assemble the conclusion based on the results.Now she will collect the data and conduct the experiment on the soil and glass and then she will assemble the conclusion based on the results.

O que é piracema?? Eu sei que é um peixe mas minha professora nunca aceitaria essa resposta no roteiro de estudos
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

It is a season in which fish reproduce.

Explanation:

Piracema is not name of the fish, its the name given to the period of the year when fish reproduce within the Paraguay River. The season of reproduction started from October till March, during this period the fish swim upstream to lay their eggs and reproduce. Thus the season is critical for the maintenance of fish populations in the waters of the rivers and lakes. Brazilian states prohibit fishing during this period in order to maintain fish population in the river.

How are these two process linked by ATP and NADH?
denpristay [2]

Answer/Explanation:

The light-dependent reactions use light energy to make two molecules needed for the next stage of photosynthesis.  the energy storage molecule ATP and the reduced electron carrier NADPH. The ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions are used to make sugars in the next stage of photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle.
