Answer : The least number of amino acids in a polypeptide are 10

Explanation :

A peptide is a compound which is formed by joining of 2 or more amino acids by peptide linkage.

Depending on the number of amino acids involved in the formation of the peptide,it can be classified as follows.

1) Dipeptide : This is the shortest peptide chain and contains only 2 amino acids.

2) Polypeptide : This is formed when 10 or more amino acids are joined together. A polypeptide can have 10 to 50 amino acid molecules.

When the number of amino acids are more than 50, then the compound is termed as a "protein".

Therefore we can say that the least number of amino acids in a polypeptide are 10.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

2.765amu is the contribution of the X-19 isotope to the weighted average

Explanation:

The average molar mass is defined as the sum of the molar mass of each isotope times its abundance. For the unknown element X that has 2 isotopes the weighted average is defined as:

X = Mass X-19 * Abundance X-19 + MassX-21 * Abundance X-21

The contribution of the X-19 isotope is its mass (19.00 amu) times its abundance (14.55% = 0.1455). That is:

19.00amu * 0.1455 =

2.765amu is the contribution of the X-19 isotope to the weighted average

What is the molarity of a solution of 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution?
jekas [21]

Answer:

1.72 M

Explanation:

Molarity is the molar concentration of a solution. It can be calculated using the formula a follows:

Molarity = number of moles (n? ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question, the solution has 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution.

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl2 = 24 + 35.5(2)

= 24 + 71

= 95g/mol

mole = 58.7g ÷ 95g/mol

mole = 0.618mol

Volume of solution = 359ml = 359/1000 = 0.359L

Molarity = 0.618mol ÷ 0.359L

Molarity = 1.72 M

Oxygen-Carbon Dioxide Exchange
leonid [27]

Answer:

Answer is below with the steps in order

Explanation:

4) Blood picks up carbon dioxide from the body

7) Heart pumps carbon dioxide rich blood to the lungs

8) Inhale

9) Nose traps germs in air

10) Air moves down the trachea

3) Air moves through bronchi into the bronchioles

6) Alveoli receive oxygen pass to blood

9) Oxygen passes into the blood

11) Alveoli receives carbon dioxide from the blood

12) Oxygen-rcih blood flows to the heart

3) Carbon Dioxide moves from bonchioles to bronchi

13)Carbon dioxide flows up

1) Heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body

The last <em>four of five</em> steps could be switched up a little bit since it all happens synchronously, but this is the most accurate interpretation.
