Answer:

Aluminum

Explanation:

The density of Aluminum is 2.7 g/cm3

We know the volume and mass of the unknown metal, as density is mass/volume:  81g/30cm3 = 2.7 g/cm3 which is the density of Aluminum :)

Given parameters:

Mass of metal  = 81g

Volume of metal  = 30cm³

Unknown:

Identity of the metal = ?

To find the identity of the metal, we must derive an intrinsic property from the give parameters which we can use to identify it.

This property is density.

Density is mass per unit volume of a substance. Every earth material has a unique value of density.

         Density  = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

  If we find density, we look up a density table and identify the element.

Input the parameters and solve;

        Density  = \frac{81}{30}    = 2.7g/cm³

The metal with a density value of 2.7g/cm³ is aluminium.

What is the structure of a protein molecule?
Olenka [21]

Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in a protein molecule. Proteins are polymers — specifically polypeptides — formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue (chemistry) indicating a repeating unit of a polymer. Proteins form by amino acids undergoing condensation reactions, in which the amino acids lose one water molecule per reaction in order to attach to one another with a peptide bond. By convention, a chain under 30 amino acids is often identified as a peptide, rather than a protein.[1] To be able to perform their biological function, proteins fold into one or more specific spatial conformations driven by a number of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic packing. To understand the functions of proteins at a molecular level, it is often necessary to determine their three-dimensional structure. This is the topic of the scientific field of structural biology, which employs techniques such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and dual polarisation interferometry to determine the structure of proteins.

Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.[2] By physical size, proteins are classified as nanoparticles, between 1–100 nm. Very large aggregates can be formed from protein subunits. For example, many thousands of actin molecules assemble into a microfilament.

A protein may undergo reversible structural changes in performing its biological function. The alternative structures of the same protein are referred to as different conformational isomers, or simply, conformations, and transitions between them are called conformational changes.

neonofarm [45]
The muscular system of an organism controls the organism’s muscles. When a hummingbird’s muscular system is affected, the muscles will become weak from a disease and they will potentially die because they will not be able to survive without the strong support of their legs or any other muscle in its body.

Which of the following is NOT a component of a nucleotide?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

The above answer given is incorrect. Nucleotides consist of a phosphate group attached to a pentose sugar, with 5 carbons,  (deoxyribose sugar in the case of DNA) and the pentose sugar is also attached to a nitrogenous base. DNA is incorrect as nucleotides are the building block of DNA hence DNA is NOT a component of nucleotides.
