Answer: B. Erosion

Explanation:

Erosion is a process of removal of top and sub-surface layers of the soil and depositing them to other location. It is caused by physical agents such as water, wind and others.

Among the options given, erosion is the correct option this is because of the fact that erosion due to water will remove the sand and seawalls present on the shorelines. This can only be caused by seawater with high speed water currents.

Protists can be:________.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

e) unicellular, colonial, or multicellular.

Explanation:

Protists originates from the Kingdom Protoctista. They comprise of organisms that are unicellular (Amoeba) or unicellular-colonial (volvox) in nature and which have no tisssues, therefore they are at the cellular level of organization.

Examples include, Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena, Slime mold, Kelp, Diatoms, DInoflagellates. etc.

Some of them are also considered to be multicellular eukaryotes e.g slime molds, red algae etc. Eukaryotic organisms are organisms that possess cells containing a nucleus.

Characteristics in which protists exhibit varies from one species to the other.

For example, the mode of nutrition in eukaryotic algae are autotrophic in nature, in amoeba, they are gifted with pseudopods(false feets) in which they used to engulf prey(a term  known as phagocytosis) therefore making them to be heterotrophic in nature.

In protist, locomotion varies from one organism to another. For example, in Amoeba , locomotion is achieved by extending and retracting pseudopods, Euglena are flagellated in nature , hence they move with the flagella. In Paramecium that are ciliated in nature, they move by propelling their cilia. etc.

<span>In the right atrium, the auricle and anterior wall exhibit obvious muscular ridges called MUSCULI PECTINATI.

Musculi pectinati or pectinate muscles are identified as specialized intracardiac muscle. The muscular ridges are like combs. These ridges help the right atrium dilate without much walls stress during adverse loading conditions.</span>

Proteins are made out of ____________. What determines the primary structure of a protein? State two functions of proteins. What
Kobotan [32]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

It should be noted that protein consist of amino acids. There are hundred of amino acids that are contained in protein. Examples of protein include fish, meat, eggs, nuts etc.

The amino acid sequence that can be found in the protein determines the primary structure of protein. The functions of protein include building and repair of body tissues, it also helps in maintain a proper potential of hydrogen (PH) for the body. Lastly, protein is also essential for growth as they help in cell and tissue growth.

Enzymes are catalysts that are responsible for speeding the chemical reaction rate in the body cells. Enzymes help in digestion.

Hemoglobin, is a protein that contains iron that can be found in the blood of animals. The function of the haemoglobin is to help in transferring oxygen to the tissues from the lungs.

suppose a cell wishes to make a protein that has 100 amino acid. How many water molecules will be created in the making of this
slega [8]
The answer is 99.

Amino acids <span>contain a carboxyl group (carbon-containing) and an amino group (nitrogen containing). Proteins are made by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino group of amino acids.
</span>If a protein is made of 100 amino acids, that means there are 99 peptide bonds (because the last, 100th amino acid will not bind the next (101st) amino acid). For each peptide bond that is created, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms are taken. Therefore, one water molecule is created for each peptide bond. If there are 99 peptide bonds, 99 water molecules are created.
