Answer: The blue colour of a biuret solution changes to violet.

Explanation: Biuret solution is a reagent that is used to test for the presence of protein in a substance.

A Biuret solution is composed of sodium hydroxide and copper II sulphate. Copper ions give the reagent its characteristic blue colour. Copper ions react with peptide bonds in the protein in an alkaline solution to form a Biuret compound with a violet colour. The copper ions which have two positive charges are reduced to a positive charge, thereby causing a colour change.

The ability to curl one's tongue into a U-shape is a genetic trait. Curlers always have at least one curler parent but noncurler

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

A noncurler has a genotype cc.

Explanation:

If curlers always have at least one curler parent, it is possible being "curler" will be related to a dominant allele, in this example, "C". So, being "noncurler" could be a recessive trait. Noncurler can have one or both parents who are curlers, and this is concordant with a recessive inheritance if both parents are heterozygous (Cc) (with a probability of 25% of being "noncurler"). Also, it is possible if one parent is heterozygous and the other is homozygous for c (Cc x cc), this with a probability of 50% ob being "noncurler".

The Punnett square shows this clearly.

h is the best characteristic that distinguishes the kingdom Archaebacteria rom the kingdom Eubacteria?

olasank [31]

The answer is cell wall.

The best characteristic that distinguishes the kingdom Archaebacteria from the kingdom Eubacteria is the cell wall. Archaebacteria have cell walls made of uncommon lipids while Eubacteria have cell walls made of peptidoglycan. Speaking of structure and body type, both kingdoms include prokaryotic and unicellular organisms without differences in nutrition source, they could be autotroph or heterotrophs.
