<span>Aminoacids have an amine (Nh2) group, a COOH group and a side-chain, joined by a center carbon: so the center carbon attaches to the N of the amine group, to the C of the COOH group, to another H and to the side-chain, which is different for each aminoacid (and it's usually written as "R")
I hope that my answer is helpful! Let me know if you need something more :)</span>

All amino acids have a center carbon. The center carbon has four different molecules attached to it, these are: AMINO GROUP [NH2], CARBOXYL GROUP [COOH], AN R GROUP [R] AND A HYDROGEN ATOM. There are twenty different amino acids in existence, each amino acid differ from another one based on their R groups. The R group is specific and unique to each amino acid. The center carbon in amino acid structure is also called alpha carbon.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

LysThrHis, LysHisThr, HisLysThr, HisThrLys, ThrLysHis, ThrHisLys

Explanation:

You easily combine the options for the tripeptide if you made a chart

Also you can calculate the posibilities with the factorial function in the calculatio (x!): 3*2*1 (you can multiplicate the number of amoniacids by the followed numbers until 1) = 6

What is the function of bile in the digestion of fats in the small intestine?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Bile is a fluid that is made and released by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Bile helps with digestion. It breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can be taken into the body by the digestive tract.

Explanation:

When digesting fats, bile acts as an emulsifier to break the large fat globules into smaller emulsion droplets. Emulsified fats provide a larger area for the fat-digesting enzymes (lipase) to act, making the process quicker. Bile acts as a good solvent.
