Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in a protein molecule. Proteins are polymers — specifically polypeptides — formed from sequences of amino acids, the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue (chemistry) indicating a repeating unit of a polymer. Proteins form by amino acids undergoing condensation reactions, in which the amino acids lose one water molecule per reaction in order to attach to one another with a peptide bond. By convention, a chain under 30 amino acids is often identified as a peptide, rather than a protein.[1] To be able to perform their biological function, proteins fold into one or more specific spatial conformations driven by a number of non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic packing. To understand the functions of proteins at a molecular level, it is often necessary to determine their three-dimensional structure. This is the topic of the scientific field of structural biology, which employs techniques such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and dual polarisation interferometry to determine the structure of proteins.
Protein structures range in size from tens to several thousand amino acids.[2] By physical size, proteins are classified as nanoparticles, between 1–100 nm. Very large aggregates can be formed from protein subunits. For example, many thousands of actin molecules assemble into a microfilament.
A protein may undergo reversible structural changes in performing its biological function. The alternative structures of the same protein are referred to as different conformational isomers, or simply, conformations, and transitions between them are called conformational changes.
<u>Answer</u>:
Option d. many small changes can create a whole new species
<u>Explanation</u>:
In the natural selection when the animals gets adapted in a better manner, they tends to thrive in and gets the ability to reproduce more which leads to the formation of the new bigger species. It leads to a change when the individual with few characteristic have the survival chance more also the reproductive rate as compared to others individuals in the group and also passes these inheritable genetic traits to the offspring.
Answer:
I dont think so but i really dont know.
Explanation:
I dont know.
Answer:
The one you put is correct ( Smells influence our memory and taste
Explanation:
Say your mom bakes some chocolate chip cookies. We all will remember that smell ofc but it will bring back memories when you are older when you smell the smell of when your mama made them when you were younger . I'm tryna help loll lmk if i do
Answer:
Genetic variations that alter gene activity or protein function can introduce different traits in an organism. If a trait is advantageous and helps the individual survive and reproduce, the genetic variation is more likely to be passed to the next generation (a process known as natural selection).
