Which of the following INCORRECTLY describes a polymer? Which of the following INCORRECTLY describes a polymer?

Len [333]

Answer:

A. ATP is a polymer of phosphates.

Explanation:

ATP is not a polymer of phosphates. It is a rather a complex organic molecule that has its main function to provide energy.

Starch and glycogens are polysaccharides or polymers of glucose or simply put, they have glucose subunits.

Nucleotides are biological molecules consisting of 3 major sub units which are the nitrogenous base, the phosphate acid and the 5 carbon (ribose) sugar. They are the building blocks of DNA and RNA and hence monomers.

Amino acids are basically organic compounds that contain amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to every amino acid molecule. They are bond together by a peptide bond between the -NH2 and -COOH group to furthet form polypetides. Proteins in the same vein are called polypeptides which is a chain of amino acids.

Hey! i’ll give brainliest please help

frutty [35]

Answer:

2, only the moose with the largest feet

Explanation:

If the moose species developed larger feet, then the cause of it has to be for their survival. So the ecosystem they lived in had to make it so the larger feet were helpful. That crosses out 1 and 3. The problem said nothing about the moose having smaller feet so, the answer has to be 2.

I hope this helps :)

In the table on the right, observe Krakauer's formula for benefit to dominant male. What is the benefit, B? calculate the value

Mashcka [7]

The table is an illustration of two-way table, and the value of the cost to net benefit to subordinate male is 0.1

<h3>The value of the benefit</h3>

From the table, the Krakauer's formula for benefit (B) is:

B = Offspring per dominant male - Offspring per solo male

The question has missing parameters, so we make use of the following assumed values:

Offspring per dominant male = 7
Offspring per solo male = 2

So, we have:

B = 7 - 2

B = 5

Using the assumed values, the value of the benefit is 5

<h3>The cost to subordinate male</h3>

The Krakauer's formula for cost (C) is:

C = Offspring per solo male - Offspring per subordinate male

Given that subordinate male never reproduce, the equation becomes

C = Offspring per solo male - 0

C = Offspring per solo male

Using the assumed value in (a), we have:

C = 2

Using the assumed values, the value of the cost to subordinate male is 2

<h3>The net benefit to subordinate male</h3>

The Krakauer's formula for this is:

Net Benefit = rB - C

Given that r = 0.42, the equation becomes

Net Benefit = 0.42 * 5 - 2

Evaluate

Net Benefit = 0.1

Using the assumed values, the value of the cost to net benefit to subordinate male is 0.1
