Amino acids differ from one another by the ________________ that is present

Biology
1 answer:
olasank [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. R group

Explanation:

Amino acids are the monomers for proteins. Various amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides.

All standard amino acids have a central chiral carbon atom to which four functional grouped are bonded. All the amino acids have one carboxyl group, one amino group and one hydrogen atom bonded to the central carbon atom.

However, the chemical nature of the "R group" differentiates various amino acids. For example, alanine has a "CH3" group as an R group while glycine has one more hydrogen atom as its R group.

What characteristic of viruses distinguishes them from cells?
Helga [31]

Answer: Viruses, although not living things, do show some characteristics that they are living. Because they can't reproduce by themselves (without a host), viruses are not considered living. They are made of proteins and glycoproteins like cells are. They contain genetic information needed to produce more viruses in the form of DNA or RNA.

They are acellular, that is, they contain no cytoplasm or cellular organelles. They carry out no metabolism on their own and must replicate using the host cell's metabolic machinery.

Sports physiologists at an Olympic training center want to monitor athletes to determine at what point their muscles are functio
Musya8 [376]
The answer to this question is lactic acid. The reason why sports psychologists would need to look for a buildup of this chemical is because it is the chemical that produces pain or "feeling the burn" in an exercise when someone pushes their limit. Also, after so long, a person with a lactic acid buildup needs to take a break because high levels of lactic acid is dangerous for the bloodstream.
