Answer;

-On the polar end or the hydrophillic end of the protein.

Explanation;

-Each amino acid has at least one amine and one acid functional group as the name implies. The different properties result from variations in the structures of different R groups.The R group is often referred to as the amino acid side chain.

-Side chains which have various functional groups such as acids, amides, alcohols, and Amines will impart a more polar character to the amino acid. Polar amino acids include serine, threonine, asparagine, glutamine, histidine and tyrosine.

Therefore; serine being a polar or hydrophillic  amino acid will be found on the polar side chain of the protein.

The serine side chain most likely would be found outside of the globular water-soluble protein.


Most proteins have a hydrophobic core (where the hydrophobic amino acids are), and a polar surface in contact with the environment (water). Polar and charged amino acids cover the surface of the molecule and are in contact with a solvent  (water) due to their ability to form hydrogen bonds. Hydroxyl group (-OH) of the serine classifies it as a polar amino acid.

1. How might the daily experiences of people contribute to their belief the earth and species do not change?
MariettaO [177]
People's daily experiences can contribute to their belief that earth/ species do not change because we are changing with it as it is happening. Also the changes happen gradually so you can't constantly see to believe it.

Match the following.
valkas [14]

Answer:

1 . The stage on the first meiotic division when the homologous chromosomes move to opposite poles but the sister chromatids remain together

: b. Anaphase I

2 . The stage in the second meiotic division where sister chromatids migrate to opposite poles

: c. Anaphase II

3 . A structure on the chromosome that holds a pair of chromatids together during replication

: f. centromere

4 . A double-stranded chromosome following replication attached by a centromere

: d. chromatid

5 . A condition where non-sister chromatid of homologous chromosomes exchange genes

: e. crossing over

6 . The stage in the first meiotic division where the homologous chromosomes line up as a pair

: a. Metaphase I

7 . The stage in the second meiotic division where the chromatid pair lines up at the equator of the cell: g. Metaphase II

Explanation:

DNA replication occurs during the S phase of the interphase of the cell cycle. The replicated DNA molecules are accommodated in two sister chromatids of a chromosome that are held together by a centromere.  

During prophase I, the chromatids of a homologous chromosome pair exchange a genetic segment. This process is called crossing over. It generates recombinant chromatids with new combinations of genes.

Metaphase I of meiosis I includes the alignment of homologous pairs of chromosomes at the cell's equator. This is followed by separation and movement of homologous chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell during anaphase I.  

Metaphase II of meiosis II includes the alignment of individual chromosomes, each with two sister chromatids, on the cell's equator. During anaphase II, splitting centromere separates the sister chromatids which then move to the opposite poles of the cell.
