Which of the following accurately describes carbon atoms?

Biology
1 answer:
Natasha2012 [34]3 years ago
5 0


The best answer is D.

Carbon  has an affinity for bonding with other small atoms including other carbon atoms, via the formation of stable covalent  bonds.

In spite of the fact that carbon is present in a vast number of compounds, carbon is weakly reactive  compared to other elements.

It has the ability to form very long chains of strong and stable interconnecting  C-C bonds. This property allows carbon to form an almost infinite number of compounds. There are more known carbon-containing compounds than all the compounds of the other chemical elements  combined except those of hydrogen because almost all organic compounds contain hydrogen as well.

A glycosidic linkage is analogous to_________ in proteins
luda_lava [24]

Answer: Peptide bond

Explanation:

Polysacharride are monomers of carbohydrates linked together by glycosidic bonds to form long chains, also proteins are polymers of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.

Linear chains of carbohydrates are linked together by glycosidic alpha-1,4- glycosidic linkages(between the OH group of the first carbon if the 1st monomer and the OH group of the 4th carbon of the second monomer. The branched point are linked by alpha-1,6-linkages.

In proteins the alpha carboxyl group of one amino acid react with alpha amino group of another amino acid to form a peptide bond or CO-NH bridge. Proteins are made by polymerization of amino acids through peptide bonds.

A litter of four kittens includes one with black hair and blue eyes, one with black hair and orange eyes, one with brown tabby h
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Law of independent assortment

Explanation:

According to Gregor Mendel who he performed a performed a cross involving two different genes i.e. a dihybrid cross, he stated that the allele of one gene will get sorted into gametes independently of the alleles of the other gene. He called this the LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT.

He obtained a 9:3:3:1 ratio when he performed this cross, which was only expected if each gametes contained the two genes in a combined state i.e. the dominant allele for one gene is equally likely to contain a dominant or recessive allele for the other gene in a gamete.

In this case, it appears the black hair and blue eyes are dominant alleles respectively while the tabby hair and orange eyes are recessive alleles respectively. If these alleles assort independently and combine in different ways, it will give rise to diverse genotypes and phenotypes in the kitten as illustated in the different phenotypic expression of eye color and hair color in the kitten.
