Answer:

Detail is given below.

Explanation:

Atomic radius  trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons increases. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

we can see in picture A there is one positive charge and force of attraction is 2.30×10⁻⁸ N

In picture D there are 2 positive charge and force of attraction is 4.60×10⁻⁸ N

So by increasing the positive charge force of attraction also increases.

In F we can see there is more positive charge thus force of attraction is also greater.

Identify both the cellular structure that assembles these proteins and the kinds of molecules that are used as the building bloc
Blizzard [7]
The basic building blocks of proteins are the amino acids. There are 20 amino acids in a protein that we consume and the protein in our body. These amino acids link together to form large molecules. The 20 amino acids are divided into two groups called the essential and non-essential amino acids.
