Describe how the structures of proteins differ from the structures of carbohydrates (150 words)

Biology
1 answer:
Veronika [31]3 years ago
7 0

well both are considered macromolecules. proteins are like big lego construction. each single piece gets pieced together to make a larger thing. each single piece is a monomer, and the larger construction is the polymer. the monomers are called amino acids and they get pieced together to form the polymer which is called a protein. the linkage that they use is an amide bond, and in biology it is usually called a peptide bond. carbohydrates can be singular monomers or polymer units. they are made of completely different compounds usually aldehydes or ketones. and they link together through different chemical linkages (acetal or ketal linkages for polymers, hemiacetal or hemiketal linkages for monomers). both can be large, 3D strucutres proteins are only functional as a large, 3D structure, while carbohydrates can be singular. (you might wanna word it differently for safety reason)

A student will measure and record the growth (in height) of two flowering plants every other day for 20 days. Each plant will re
zepelin [54]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

the independent variable - if fertilizer added or not,

the dependant variable - the height of the plant and

the standardized variable - 200ml water

Explanation:

In this study, the student wanted to see the effect of the fertilizer on the growth of the plant so the independent variable is the treatment of the fertilizer as manipulated or the independent variable is the factor which is affected or changed purposely during an experiment while other variables remain constant.

The dependent variable is the factor that is based or depends on the independent variable and measured to see the effect which is the height of the plants in this case.

The standardized or the control variable is the variable that remains constant throughout the experiment, 200 ml water treatment is the control variable in this experiment.

Name ALL the alleles that control human blood groups.​
Naily [24]

Human blood groups are governed by three alleles. These are called I A ; I B ; I O .

I B shows the codominance

I O is recessive to both other alleles

The rate at which the concentration of a drug in the bloodstream decreases is proportional to the concentration at any time t. I
Westkost [7]

Answer:

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}

Explanation:

From the given information:

At any given time (t), let c(t) represent the concentration of the drug present in bloodstream.

Deriving the equation:

\dfrac{dC}{dt} decrease proportionally to Concentration C

i.e

\dfrac{dc}{dt} \alpha - C

\dfrac{dc}{dt} = -k C

\dfrac{dc}{c} = -k dt

\int \dfrac{dc}{c} = -k \int dt

㏑(C) = -kt + λ

where,

λ is the integration constant.

Integrating at t = 0, concentration of blood = Co g/mL

C(0) = Co

㏑(C₀) = 0 + λ

λ = ㏑(C₀)

From ㏑(C) = -kt + λ

㏑(C) = -kt + ㏑C₀

㏑(C)  - ㏑C₀ =  -kt

\dfrac{C}{C_o} = e^{-kt}

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}

∴

The concentration of drug in blood at any time t is:

C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}
