The R group of the proteins are side chains which are specific to each protein and which confer specific chemical properties to the proteins. The R group determines the size, polarity and the pH of the protein.
In the case of the protein where the amino acid containing a polar R group is replaced with another amino acid containing non polar R group, the TERTIARY structure of the protein might be affected. Structure will be affected if the protein is hydrophillic and the R group is hydrophobic.

schepotkina [342]

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is a colorless and odorless gas that is vital to life on Earth. This naturally occurring chemical compound is made up of a carbon atom contently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Carbon dioxide exists in Earth's atmosphere as a trace gas at a concentration of about 0.04 percent (400 ppm) by volume.Natural sources include volcanoes, hot springs and geysers, and it is freed from carbonate rocks by dissolution in water and acids. Because carbon dioxide is soluble in water, it occurs naturally in groundwater, rivers and lakes, in ice caps and glaciers and also in seawater. It is present in deposits of petroleum and natural gas.

Is DNA synthesized continually during the cell cycle
vagabundo [1.1K]
  <span>No 
DNA is synthesized in the middle part of Interphase, which is usually denoted S in the series G1 - S - G2  </span><span>"There are 3 stages of interphase: G1 in which the cell grows and functions normally. Once it grows too large it enters the synthesis (S) phase. In S phase the cell makes exact copies of its DNA. It is now ready for G2 phase where it makes sure all of its chromosomes and organelles are ready for mitosis."</span>

Dendrite; axon; synapse

These are parts of the neuron which is considered as the basic unit of nervous system. The cell responsible for receiving sensory input from the external environment. The stimulus will be transported in an electrical signal via neuronal parts. Axon transmit signal to the other neuron. Dendrites are the receiving part of the neuron. Synapse is the space between each neuron where elctrical impulse is converted into a chemical signal via neurotransmitters.
