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.

In which layer does mantle convection occur? ​
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The correct answer is asthenosphere.

Explanation:

The Earth comprises four layers, that is, the crust, the mantle, the inner core, and the outer core. The magnetic field of the Earth is the amalgamation of the convection it attains from the Coriolis Effect and the outer core. The layer of the Earth where convection of the mantle takes place is the asthenosphere.

Describe the changes in our lungs when we breathe in and breath out?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

When you breathe air in your diaphragm tightens and moves downward. It also increases the space in your chest cavity causing your lungs to expand.The muscles in your ribs also help to enlarge your chest cavity. This causes your rib cage to pull upward and outward when you inhale. When you exhale the exact opposite happens.
