The fragments that will be created may be determined by the macromolecules present. Protein molecules are composed of amino acids, so the breakdown of a virus's protein coat will yield fragments that are amino acids. Next, DNA and RNA are composed of ribose sugar and nucleic acids. So upon breakdown, they will produce these fragments.

How can you determine the past arrangement of leaves on a bare twig?
Elanso [62]

The determination of the past arrangement of leaves from bare twig  are

  • Flower bud
  • Lateral branching
  • Lateral terminal bud
  • Leaf scar
  • Node
  • Inter node
  • Auxiliary buds
  • Bud scale
  • Terminal bud

<u>Explanation:</u>

Terminal bud:  it is the large bud at the apex of the twig.  Uses of the bud is to protect the dormant meristem.  

Bud scale: a small modified leaf on outside of bud.

Auxiliary bud: It is found just above the each leaf scar. Not all twig will have a full complementary of auxiliary buds. They frequently gets damaged.

Risk of using bio pharmaceuticals
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The potential risks associated with plant-based pharmaceuticals include: pollen transfer to related species, contamination of non-transgenic crops intended for the consumption by humans, allergic reactions to the drugs produced from the genetically engineered plant, and persistence of genetically engineered material to persist in the environment and accumulate in non-target organisms. Risk assessment of plant-made pharmaceuticals should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis because the plants used to produce proteins each have different risks associated with them.

describe at least three different functions of proteins and explain how the shape of a protein affects its function
dem82 [27]

Enzymes are often affected by  environmental factors in the body such as concentration, temperature, and pH. 
Proteins are very important for DNA and RNA. (ribonucleic acid)
