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.

Two species of shorebirds are both adapted to live in coastal marshes. One species outcompetes the other for the small fish that
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The population of other specie of birds will decline or other specie of birds will find some alternate source of food to survive.

Explanation:

According to the Competitive exclusion principle, which is also known as Gause's Law, two specie living in the same niche and feeding on the same resource cannot co-exist stably.

As we have well studied the theory of natural selection which states that only those organisms survive which have better tendency to compete for food and adapt to the environmental conditions.

Coming towards the question, what wi ll happen when One species outcompetes the other for the small fish , the other specie will not get enough food and will start to die or decline in population. Eventually either other specie needs to find another alternative food source for itself or migrate at some other location where there is less competition otherwise it will just not exist anymore at that niche.

Hope it help!

DNA is double stranded due to interactions between adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine, which are
WARRIOR [948]

Answer;

Complementary base pairs;

- Adenine-Thyamine and Guanine-Cytosine (A-T and G-C)

Explanation;

-According to Chargaf's rule, the secondary structure of the DNA requires that every guanine pairs with a cytosine and every thymine pairs with an adenine, resulting in consistent ratios between the nucleotides.

-In double-stranded DNA, two long molecules twist around one another in a double helix.  Pairs of nitrogenous bases are set in the same plane, and interact with each other via hydrogen bonding. These pairs are often referred to as base pairs
