Answer:

The answer is IONIC BOND

Explanation:

Steroidogenic acute regulatory, (StAR) protein is a type of globular protein, which allows it act as an active catalyst on substrates. Because the substrates on which enzymes act usually have higher molecular weights of several hundred as compared to the enzymes, only a fraction of the enzyme's surface is in contact with the substrate. This region of contact called the <em>active site</em>, is as a result of the protein folding itself into a tertiary structure.

Once the correct substrate has bound at the active site of the enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is created. The substrate is usually held in the complex by combinations of electrical attraction, hydrophobic repulsion, or hydrogen bonding between and from the amino acid; the strongest of which is the ionic/electrostatic bonding due to larger amount of ionic "R" groups in the protein structure.

So whilst all these inter-molecular interactions are possible, the strongest would be <u>ionic bond.</u>

Describe the differences between groups in the current day Periodic table of elements
White raven [17]
<span>The key difference between Mendeleev and modern periodic table is that Mendeleev’s periodic table was based on the increasing atomic masses while the modern periodic table is based on the increasing atomic numbers. Let us see here what is Mendeleev periodic table and what is modern periodic table, and then compare both to understand the difference between both periodic tables. Mendeleev is the pioneer of the modern periodic table, though a numerous number of changes had been made to the old version of the periodic table. Both of these attempts are equally important to the scientific community; because without an invention of the periodic relationship in elements, the modern developments in Science would not reach a development era as today. Before the invention of Mendeleev’s classification, there were several attempts made by several chemists, but their periodic laws were inadequate to apply for all the elements. The modern periodic table is so advantageous for the development in the Science.</span>

What’s the difference between Nuclear Chemistry and Organic Chemistry?<br>And what are similarities?
Aleksandr [31]
Nuclear chemistry is the subfield of chemistry dealing with radioactivity, nuclear processes, such as nuclear transmutation, and nuclear properties.

It is the chemistry of radioactive elements such as the actinides, radium and radon together with the chemistry associated with equipment (such as nuclear reactors) which are designed to perform nuclear processes. This includes the corrosion of surfaces and the behavior under conditions of both normal and abnormal operation (such as during an accident). An important area is the behavior of objects and materials after being placed into a nuclear wastestorage or disposal site.

It includes the study of the chemical effects resulting from the absorption of radiation within living animals, plants, and other materials. The radiation chemistry controls much of radiation biology as radiation has an effect on living things at the molecular scale, to explain it another way the radiation alters the biochemicals within an organism, the alteration of the biomolecules then changes the chemistry which occurs within the organism, this change in chemistry then can lead to a biological outcome. As a result, nuclear chemistry greatly assists the understanding of medical treatments (such as cancerradiotherapy) and has enabled these treatments to improve.

It includes the study of the production and use of radioactive sources for a range of processes. These include radiotherapy in medical applications; the use of radioactive tracers within industry, science and the environment; and the use of radiation to modify materials such as polymers.[1]

It also includes the study and use of nuclear processes in non-radioactive areas of human activity. For instance, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is commonly used in synthetic organic chemistry and physical chemistry and for structural analysis in macromolecular chemistry.

What is the purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in the oxidation fermentation test?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in this test is that two uninoculated control tubes are needed to show the results of the medium in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. It is used to show it is sterile and also as a color comparison, used also to show that the medium remains green under both conditions.
