The answer is A - stores genetic information I think
The new hydrophilic amino acid would not form the same interactions with hydrophobic R groups. As a consequence, protein's 3D structure would likely be affected.
Different types of amino acids have different properties and thus form different interactions. For example, hydrophobic amino acids (water-repelent) such as alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, cysteine and methionine. participate in van der Waals type of interactions. They often form the hydrophobic core of the protein which doesn’t interact with water surrounding.
On the other hand, hydrophilic amino acids (arginine, asparagine, glutamine, aspartat..) are polar, can dissolve in the water and can join the hydrogen bond network.
Answer:
The options are
a.cooling of the power plant
b.mining of uranium
c.storage of radioactive waste
d.monitoring the reactor
The answer is b.mining of uranium
Explanation:
Uranium is known as a radioactive element which is used as a fuel to power a nuclear energy plant. Mining of uranium could cause it to mix with air and water which results in contamination.
When contamination occurs and it gets into the body of humans or animals by inhalation or ingestion it poses a high risk of cancer and kidney damage.
