Tyrosine is listed as a non-essential amino acid because it can be synthesised from the essential amino acid phenylalanine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amino acids are classified as essential and non essential according to whether they can be synthesized in the body itself or should be supplied by the diet. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized in the body of the organism and thus can be obtained only from the diet. In the case of human beings, valine, phenylalanine, methionine etc are examples of essential amino acids.

Non essential amino acids can be synthesized within the body of the organism. Thus they need not be supplied by the diet. Alanine, aspartic acid etc are some of the non essential amino acids in human beings. It is given here that animals cannot synthesize tyrosine from shikimate-3p due to the lack of EPSP synthase.

But the amino acid tyrosine can be synthesized from the amino acid phenylalanine which is an essential amino acid. Thus tyrosine will be a non-essential amino acid.

muminat

Answer:

The answer is; Simulation of early Earth conditions and long-term study of the resulting molecules

Explanation:

It is believed that the first molecules on earth were made spontaneously through reaction spurred by energy from lightning and also the heat from the earth. It is believed that these molecules over time then formed polymers through the catalysis by metals in the oceans. These polymers were able to self-replicate and also act as enzymes since they were able to fold up. This hypothesis was coined by Carl Woese, Francis Crick and Leslie Orgel in the 1960s. To prove it, the then conditions of early earth need to be replicated, data collected, and analyzed.

What chemical formula reflects the diagram
Elden [556K]
Chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs. These are limited to a single typographic line of symbols, which may include subscripts and superscripts. A chemical formula is not a chemical name, and it contains no words. Although a chemical formula may imply certain simple chemical structures, it is not the same as a full chemical structural formula. Chemical formulas can fully specify the structure of only the simplest of molecules and chemical substances, and are generally more limited in power than are chemical names and structural formulas.
