The best answer is A.

The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure. The primary structure is the sequence of amino acids  in each polypeptide chain which make up a protein.

The sequence of amino acids is basically a list of amino acids that are linked to each other to form a chain which is known as a polypeptide chain.

The structure of the finished protein will depend largely on the first  (primary) chain of amino acids to be produced to make up that protein.

Oksana_A [137]
Smooth muscles depolarize as a result of a transmembrane current of Calcium ions.                                                                                                                       When an action potential depolarizes the muscle cell membrane, it also travels into the body of the cell via the t-tubules. Unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle is dependent in two sources of calcium in order to intiate contraction. These two sources are calcium sequestered in the S.R. of the smooth muscle cell.

2. If 10% of the bases in a molecule of DNA are adenine, what is the ratio of adenine to guanine in the same
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: Option D) 1:4

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases in the DNA nucleotide is equal to 100%. And specific base pairings of Adenine to Thymine (A=T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C=G) must be equal.

So, the percentage of Adenine equal thymine, and that of cytosine equals guanine.

Now, A + T + C + G = 100%

So, if adenine makes up 10% of the DNA nucleotides, then thymine is also 10%.

Then, 10% + 10% + C + G = 100%

20% + C + G = 100%

C + G = 100% - 20% = 80%

Thus, divide 80% by 2 to obtain the individual percentage of cytosine and guanine. Each will take 40%

Ratio Adenine to Guanine is 10% to 40%

or 1:4 in simplest form
