<h2>What happens for elements larger than iron to be created? </h2>
- Neutron-capture inside stars is the primary source of elements heavier than iron, while there are other minor contributors (cosmic ray spallation, radioactive decay). They are not just produced by supernovae, but also by other stars.
The mass number is the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons the atom has.
So, we can write the equation as:
x + 20 = 40
x = 20 neutrons.
Answer:
The correct answer is the last statement.
Explanation:
Amphipathic refers to a substance that comprises both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. Thus, the given first three statements are incorrect. The amphipathic helices are witnessed on the proteins surfaces in which the hydrophilic region associates with the aqueous phase and the hydrophobic regions associate with the hydrophobic component of the protein.
Both the amphipathic sheets and helices exhibit primarily the hydrophobic or hydrophilic residues on one face. Thus, the correct answer is the last statement.
