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.
The answer would be C valleys formed by a glaciers.
Answer:
(D) Enzymes can function only within living cells.
Explanation:
<em>Enzymes are biological molecules that are proteinous in nature and speed up the rate of biological reactions.</em>
Option A is true because enzymes are not used up or changed when they are used to catalyze reactions
Option B is true. Enzymes are very specific with regards to the reactions they take part in.
Option C is true. Some enzymes contain non-protein component that assist them in their functioning. These non-protein components are called co-factors.
Option E is true. Because enzymes are proteinous in nature, they can be destroyed/denatured by high temperatures.
<em>The only untrue option is D. Some enzymes can function outside living cells. For example, the enzymes involved in digestion can function not just within living cells but also outside it. The functions of some of the digestive enzymes can be demonstrated in the laboratory.</em>
The correct option is D.
