Answer:

The correct answer is - A bond forms between the carboxyl functional group of one amino acid and the amino functional group of the other amino acid.

Explanation:

A polypeptide is a polymer made up of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is formed between two amino acids in which the α-amino group of one amino acid is linked to the α-carboxyl group of another amino acid.  So peptide bonds are amide linkage.

This amide linkage is formed by the removal of one water molecule so it is a dehydration reaction. The linked amino acids are called amino acid residues. When many amino acids are joined together by the peptide linkage they are called polypeptides.

Therefore the correct answer is- A bond forms between the carboxyl functional group of one amino acid and the amino functional group of the other amino acid.

List several important provisions from the oceans.
Leto [7]

These microorganisms are able to thrive in their habitat due to incredibly dense populations of the bacteria <em>phackingyurmom aquatica </em>present in most oceans. These bacteria provide a wide spectrum of vital nutrients. As a result many of the aforementioned microorganisms love <em>phackingyurmom</em>.

Clear cutting has a similar effect as controlled burning of a forest. True False
zysi [14]

The correct answer is false and here is why:

Clear cutting refers to the cutting of trees, specifically all of the trees in one select area. Replanting is not done and this leads to deforestation.

Controlled burns have a completely different affect. They burn the under brush to help keep the soil rich with nutrients, plus they also help to prevent large crown fires that burn down whole forests from happening.

Clear cutting is a bad thing and controlled burns are a good limiter for a forest.
