The given blank can be filled with exergonic reaction.  

An exergonic reaction demonstrates a reaction where energy is discharged. As the reactants lose energy, the Gibbs free energy is negative under constant pressure and temperature.  

An exergonic reaction, as mentioned in the given case and another process like cellular respiration refers to a reaction, which loses energy during the process of the reaction. An exergonic process is one in which there is a positive flow of energy taking place from the system to the surrounding.

The wood in a matchstick is made of cellulose, a polymer of glucose molecules. When you light the matchstick, heat and light are given off, indicating that an exothermic reaction is occurring.

There are two types of reactions:

1. Exothermic reactions: In these reactions, the reactants combine to form product and heat is liberated. Example, burning of fuel.

2.Endothermic reactions: In these reactions, the reactants combine to form product and heat gets absorbed from the surroundings. Example, photosynthesis in plants where the energy of the Sun gets absorbed.

What is the study of fish known as in biology?​
klio [65]

Answer:

The study of fish is called Ichthyology.

Explanation:

Fish specimens are identified in the field by ichthyologists. Ichthyology is the field of study that deals with fishes. Taxonomy (classification and the description of new species) and biogeography are the two main areas of focus for museum ichthyologists (patterns of distribution).

Ichthyology is the field of study that deals with fishes. Taxonomy (classification and the description of new species) and biogeography are the two main areas of focus for museum ichthyologists (patterns of distribution). Large reference collections of preserved specimens are kept in museums as a permanent resource for present-day researchers as well as for future ones.

The bold region of the above sequence will be in the transmembrane region.

4.b) To predict the helix we need to know the propensity of each amino acid in the amino acid sequence to form an alpha helix of the protein. Not only the propensity of a single amino acid will dictate that but also other amino acids in its vicinity will have an effect on it. More importantly, that should follow the Ramachandran plot.

4.c) I chosen that region based on the hydropathy index of the stretch of amino acids. The region of amino acids should have hydrophobic side chain because they will interact with the hydrophobic tail of the lipids in the cell membrane. So this region has higher hydropathy index than others. This lead me to choose that region.
