I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. <span>An amino acid contains an amino group, a carboxyl group, and an R group, and it combines with other amino acids to form polypeptide chains. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

According to the way you defined the image, the right answer is C. Amino Acid.

The amino acids found in proteins all have the same basic structure: they are oriented around a central carbon atom, the α-carbon, on which the carboxyl group (-COOH) is articulated, the amino group (-NH2). ), a hydrogen atom (-H) and a lateral group (denoted -R). It is the nature of this lateral group (also called side chain) which differentiates the amino acids between them.

The central α-carbon is therefore asymmetrical in all cases except that of glycine (because glycine has a hydrogen instead of a side chain). This means that it is possible to have two different conformations of the same amino acid conformations that can not be interconverted without breaking and reassembling covalent bonds. These conformations L and D are designated. Although both can be synthesized in the same chemical reaction, only the L-form is used in the proteins.

Answer:

Metamorphic rock

Explanation:

metamorphic rock formed when limestone is exposed to high temperatures and pressures. Marble forms under this condition because the calcite forming the limestone recrystallises forming a denser rock consisting of roughly equigranular calcite crystals.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Their large surface area aids in nutrient absorption.

Explanation:

<u>The main parts of a fungi's body include long, branched hair-like projections called the filaments and an outer cell wall; chitin. The hair-like projections are also referred as hyphae. A complex group of filaments or hyphae is termed as mycelium .As the filaments increase the surface area of fungi, their basic function is to absorb nutrients from external sources. Enzymes for nutrient absorption are released by the filaments on the substrate and hence the nutrients are absorbed.   </u>
