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.

What are valence electrons?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The simple answer is the electrons in the outermost energy level.

Hydrogen has 1 electron in the outermost energy level.

Magnesium has 2 so this tells you that magnesium has a charge of 2

Oxygen has 6  oxygen has a charge of - 2

Fluorine has 7

For most elements, the electrons in the most outer ring determine the valence of the element.

Notice that the non metals work differently than the metals. Mg may have a charge of 2 and that is the number of electrons in the valence right.

Oxygen is a non metal it has a charge of - 2. It gets 6 electrons by subtracting the number of its charge from 8.

Degger [83]

Answer:

Answer is A. B-hemoglobin mRNA is translated more efficiently than is a-hemoglobin mRNA.

Explanation:

The introduction of electric charge into a gel or fluid, causing or resulting in the movement of the charged particles in the gel or fluid, is referred to as the electrophoresis. It can also be explained as a separation method or technique which is based on the movement of particles or ions in an electric field.

The electrophoresis is used in separating DNA fragments , RNA or protein, based on their size and charge.
