The answer is 99.

Amino acids <span>contain a carboxyl group (carbon-containing) and an amino group (nitrogen containing). Proteins are made by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino group of amino acids.
</span>If a protein is made of 100 amino acids, that means there are 99 peptide bonds (because the last, 100th amino acid will not bind the next (101st) amino acid). For each peptide bond that is created, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms are taken. Therefore, one water molecule is created for each peptide bond. If there are 99 peptide bonds, 99 water molecules are created.

Answer the following questions.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: reading paper books and magazines,  sleeping in beds under cotton sheets, having a sandwich for lunch , sitting at wooden desks , I picking wildflowers , eating a favorite breakfast cereal.

Explanation: These are all correct because each has to deal with plants. For example, reading the paper books, sleeping in the bed and sitting at the wooden desk all have to due with the products that come from plants. Paper, cotton, and wood are all grown from plants and turned into resources. Next picking flowers, eating foods are also direct examples of how plants help us. Picking flowers that come directly from plants. Then eating food that is grown from plants shows that it is directly plants providing for humans.

In a population of white and brown rats, 16% of the population is white. if white hair is recessive to brown, what frequency of
shutvik [7]

0.36

Explanation:

For the recessive trait to show in the phenotype, the individual has to be homozygous recessive for the gene. Therefore if we designate the allele for White color as <em>r</em> and that of Brown as <em>R</em>;

<em>rr </em>= 16% = 0.16   → This is the gene frequency for recessive population

To find the allele frequency

√0.16

= 0.4

Remember the hardy Weinberg principle of allele; All allelic frequency of a gene adds up to 1 in an ideal population (that observes certain assumptions).

p + q = 1

p + 0.4 = 1

p = 1 – 0.4

p = 0.6

The allelic frequency of Brown hair is 0.6.

The frequency of individuals of a homozygous dominant genotype will be;

P² + 2pq + q² = 1

0.6 * 0.6 = 0.36
