Answer: heres the 3 main functions.

Explanation:

membranes have three primary functions 1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell 2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the cell and the outside environment and 3) they separate vital but incompatible metabolic processes conducted within organelles.

A polypeptide only becomes a functioning protein after it has folded into its exact 3D shape.
makkiz [27]
True. A protein becomes functional only when it reaches its tertiary shape (3D). It is not necessary for the protein to reach the quaternary stage, but that is just a more complex functioning protein. It really is just two tertiary merged together. Example is red blood cells.

The mutation that causes SCD causes what kind of change in the structure of hemoglobin?
Mila [183]

Answer:

A group of blood disorders generally passed on from the parents to the offspring is known as SCD or sickle cell disease. Of the disease, the most common is the SCA or sickle cell anemia. In the disease, the red blood cells comprise an abnormal form of the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin.  

Generally, humans comprise hemoglobin A, A2, and F types. Of the three types, the hemoglobin F dominates till the age of 6 weeks, after which hemoglobin A dominates till the end of life. However, in the persons diagnosed with SCA, at least one of the beta-globin subunits in hemoglobin A gets substituted by a different form known as hemoglobin S. In the disease, a single nucleotide mutation in the beta-globin gene takes place, in this at 6th position, the glutamic acid gets replaced by Valine.
