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.

What would happen if sister chromatids were not pulled apart at anaphase 2

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer and Explanation: Nondisjunction occurs when sister chromatids are not pulled apart at anaphase II. This will cause both sister chromatids/ homologous chromosomes to be pulled to just one pole of the cell.

Since the anaphase I stage in Meiosis I occurred without errors, this would result in four haploid gametes being produced.

However, two of these gametes will be normal, will have the normal number of chromosomes. The other two gametes would have an abnormal number of chromosomes and be aneuploid. One would have n+1 number of chromosomes, and the other would be n-1.

Is hypertonic active or passive transport

Len [333]

I'm a little confused by this question. Hypertonic just means that something has more of something than another thing. For example, if you place a cell in a solution, and 2% of the cell is made out of something while the solution is made out of 40% of the same thing, the solution would be hypertonic to the cell. Sorry if that explanation doesn't make sense, I tried my best lol.

Although I'd assume the answer is passive transport as anything that is hypertonic to something else will diffuse down its gradient in an attempt to reach a balance.
