A dipeptide is formed when 2 amino acids are joined together by a peptide linkage.

Each amino acid molecule contains an amino group ( -NH₂) and a carboxyl ( -COOH) group. During peptide formation, a carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with amino group of the other , resulting in the formation of a linkage known as "peptide linkage". A water molecule is also eliminated in this reaction.

A general peptide formation reaction can be written as

NH_{2}-CH_{2}-COOH + H_{2}N-CH_{2}-COOH \rightarrow NH_{2}-CH_{2}-CONH-CH_{2}-COOH +H_{2}O

In the above reaction, we can see a peptide linkage ( -CONH-) getting formed between 2 amino acid molecules.

In the given molecule the peptide linkage is shown by drawing a box around it. Please refer to the attached image.

If we want to know the amino acid molecules from which this peptide is formed, we will simply break the CO-NH bond.

We will add -OH group to CO part and -H to NH part to get 2 amino acid molecules as shown in the picture.

The two amino acids thus formed are Serine & Cysteine.

Serine is designated as "Ser" and Cysteine is designated as "Cys"

Therefore the given dipeptide is designated as "Ser-Cys"

Heat and pressure deep in the earth change shale to slate. Why does this happen?
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Because of the ground above and the molten iron core.

Explanation:

As you go deeper into the earth you have more and more of the earth above you that applies pressure on you. The heat near the very top of the plate is relatively low and it decreases by a little as you go down. But once you start to go down into the earth by hundreds of meters then the temperature starts to rise and it rises pretty quickly due to the heat being transferred from the molten iron outer core of the earth.
