You are evaluating the pH-dependent properties of the peptide R-E-T-C-H. You do NOT need to draw the peptide on this exam, but i

t will be to your advantage to sketch out a schematic image of it to account for the effects of pH on charges of individual groups. What is the net charge on the peptide at pH 7.0? Show how you reached your conclusion with calculations, but please circle your answer so that it can be clearly seen – even if you do calculations on a separate page. Please use the pKa values that we used in class for the N- [8.0] and C- [3.0] termini and for the amino acid side chains. When calculating the charge per group, you can consider any group fully (de)protonated when it is >2.0 pH units from its pKa – but anything 2.0 pH units must be calculated specifically.

Answer:

At pH 7.0, net charge of peptide R-E-T-C-H will be zero (0).

When pH in solution is greater than the pKa value ( for -COOH), it will be deprotonated. When pH is less than pKb (-NH3+) value of an aminoacid, it will be protonated.

The amino group and carboxy group, which are involved in peptide linkege, they don't participate in this process (protonation or deprotonation). Only side chains, free amino and carboxyl end are involved in this process.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

C. Disruptive Selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.  

The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.  

The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.  

Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
