Answer:

A. Production of gametes.

Explanation:

Arthropod exoskeleton is formed by chitin. Chitin is a carbohydrate that is part of the cell walls of fungi and the exoskeleton of arthropods. Exoskeleton gives protection to the internal organs due to its hardness. It also acts as a support of the body, it can be said that it is the analogous to the skeleton in humans and also prevents water from evaporating. Gametes are produced in the reproductive organs of arthropods.

One method for separating polypeptides makes use of their different solubilities. The solubility of large polypeptides in water
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The solubility of any substance in water depends on its polarity. The polar molecule dissolves more easily in the water than the non polar molecule. Amino acids have different polarity at different pH.

(a) (Lys-Ala)3 : The (Lys-Ala)3 contain more positive charge and highly polar the at pH 7 as compared with the  (Gly)20 that remains uncharged and has less polarity.

(b) (Glu)20 :This amino acids negatively charged at pH 7 and highly polar than the (Phe-Met)3 which is non polar or less polar and hence least soluble  in water.

(c) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is highly polar at pH 3 as compared with the (Ala-Asp-Gly)5 that contains the carboxylate groups of Asp residues that are partially neutral. The  (Asn-Ser-His)5 contains = the imidazole groups of His residues are fully polar and soluble in water.

(d) (Asn-Ser-His)5 is polar at pH 6.0 because both have polar side chains Ser but (Asn-Ser-His)5 is only partially partially protonated due to the His side chains. Thus,  (Asn-Ser-His)5 is more soluble in water.

How do trees act as carbon sinks?
Romashka [77]


The best answer is D.

A carbon sink is anything that absorbs more carbon than it produces or releases.

The main carbon sinks found in nature are plants, the ocean and soil.  Plants such as trees capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it in photosynthesis. Part of this carbon is transferred to soil as the trees and other plants die and decompose.

Due to the effectiveness of trees and other plants as carbon sinks,  the Kyoto protocol proposed that emission reduction can be achieved through absorption of carbon dioxide by these plants.
