<h2>Disulfide bonds interaction </h2>

Explanation:

  • The high concentration of urea causes unfolding of protein and thus results in loss of function of a protein. The urea interacts with the protein and prevents the folding of a protein.
  • During oxidation, the disulfide bonds that are required for proper functioning and stabilization of protein are formed, while in the presence of urea, the disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly. The protein oxidation results in covalent modification of a protein that results in the change of physical and chemical properties of a protein.
  • The change of physical and chemical properties of protein after oxidation and in the presence of urea cannot be modified even after the removal of urea. Thus, protein does not fold properly.
  • Hence the right answer is "disulfide bonds are not positioned correctly rather than week bonding interaction"

Which of the following best explains what would happen if there were no autotrophs in an ecosystem? (1 point) They are the first
kogti [31]

Answer:

They are the first trophic level in an ecosystem and without them the rest of the organisms in the ecosystem would have no source of energy

Explanation:

The autotrophs are the producers in the ecosystem. They manage to produce food for themselves, and they represent the first trophic level, thus they are the basis of any ecosystem. These organisms are the once that produce the energy, and the organisms in the trophic levels above them use their energy to survive. If the autotrophs are removed from and ecosystem, the ecosystem will collapse, as there will be no source of energy for the organisms in the trophic levels above, thus all of them will die out quickly.

Matter is moved through the Earth by the interaction of Earth’s systems. Please select the best answer from the choices provided
White raven [17]

The correct answer is - True.

The matter is moved through the Earth by the interactions that appear between the Earth's systems. The lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere, are constantly interacting between each other. Those interactions cause lot of matter to move around the Earth, both on its surface and inside of it.

The plate tectonics movement manages to move pretty much all of the matter on the planet, though it is a very slow process, it is very important one. The atmosphere with the movement of the air masses, as well as the waters from the hydrosphere, and the ice of the cryosphere, all manage to to move around lot of matter with their force, and that can be very slowly and on small distance, or quickly and on longer distances. The biosphere too, even though it contributes the least int he movement of matter, contributes to the physical movement of smaller amounts of matter from one place to another.
