Answer:

A . proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains

Explanation:

Proteins are consist of 50 and 2000 amino acid long and can take variety of shapes in living organisms. Two types of proteins that found in living cells are globular proteins and fibrous proteins and they have different shapes. Example of globular protein is hemoglobin and fibrous proteins are hair and nails, and collagen.

Nucleic acids tend to form linear chains from the monomers called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components: nitrogenous base. phosphate group, and pentose sugar (5-carbon sugar) that together forms a definite linear shape. It is found in DNA of living organisms.

Hence, the correct option is "A . proteins can take a variety of shapes, and nucleic acids tend to form linear chains".

Write a list of easy starter pets for kids. (yes this is a real question I have an extracurricular class)

mart [117]

Answer:

Any pet that isn't dangerous (ex: snake isn't the best idea) and can be taken care of by a child. So, a fish would be good because it doesn't need to be walked and doesn't need much attention, just to be fed, which the child can do safely. So just make a list of other easy pets like that :)

Hope this helps!

please help!!!!!!A fossil originally had 254 grams of carbon-14 but currently has 127 grams of carbon-14. The fossil is most lik

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

C-14 from fossil had reached itshalf life

Explanation:

For radiactive isotopes (such as Carbon-14), per definition; the semi life or semi disintegration period; is defined as the time for which a certain mass isotope mass disintegrates to half of the atoms that make it up

For Carbon-14, this semi life period is 5730 years , and for the above example, as it is mentioned that we originally had 254 grams of C-14 but we currently have 127 grams (this is, exaclt half of the original mass of 254 grams), this leads us that 5730 years have passed since the original mass and the final mass (that is, one semi life period of C-14)
