Ligands (molecules that bind) such as insulin bind to receptors in a reversible manner. what properties of noncovalent bonds len

d themselves to such interactions
Biology
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]4 years ago
7 0

Answer;

-The transient dynamic nature of multiple low-energy non-covalent interactions.

Explanation;

-Molecules (eg, drugs, hormones, neurotransmitters) that bind to a receptor are called ligands. The binding can be specific and reversible. A ligand may activate or inactivate a receptor; activation may increase or decrease a particular cell function. Each ligand may interact with multiple receptor subtypes.

-Ligand binding to a receptor protein alters the conformation by affecting the three-dimensional shape orientation. The conformation of a receptor protein composes the functional state.

6. What mechanisms or events are needed for a star to make heavier elements than iron?
lana [24]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

A star's energy comes from the combining of light elements into heavier elements in a process known as fusion, or "nuclear burning". It is generally believed that most of the elements in the universe heavier than helium are created, or synthesized, in stars when lighter nuclei fuse to make heavier nuclei. The process is called nucleosynthesis.

Our Sun is currently burning, or fusing, hydrogen to helium. This is the process that occurs during most of a star's lifetime. After the hydrogen in the star's core is exhausted, the star can burn helium to form progressively heavier elements, carbon and oxygen and so on, until iron and nickel are formed. Up to this point the process releases energy. <u>The formation of elements heavier than iron and nickel requires the input of energy. </u>Supernova explosions result when the cores of massive stars have exhausted their fuel supplies and burned everything into iron and nickel. The nuclei with mass heavier than nickel are thought to be formed during these explosions.

Waat phenotype has the greatest frequency in a trait that follows a normal distribution
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A phenotype is the physical observations of anything, really. For example, lazuli bunting (a bird species) has feathers that range from dull brown to bright blue. the dull brown and bright blue birds are best at mating. adult males are aggressive toward the bluish-brown birds. The greatest frequency here is that 2 seperate colors are able to mate best, yet, the mixed birds are attacked.

Explanation:

I hope this helped,

have a great day.
