1.Proteins are linear polymers built of monomer units called amino acids. The construction of a vast array of macromolecules from a limited number of monomer building blocks is a recurring theme in biochemistry. Does protein function depend on the linear sequence of amino acids? The function of a protein is directly dependent on its threedimensional structure.<span>Remarkably, proteins spontaneously fold up into three-dimensional structures that are determined by the sequence of amino acids in the protein polymer. Thus, </span>proteins are the embodiment of the transition from the one-dimensional world of sequences to the three-dimensional world of molecules capable of diverse activities<span>.
</span>2.Proteins contain a wide range of functional groups<span>. These functional groups include alcohols, thiols, thioethers, carboxylic acids, carboxamides, and a variety of basic groups. When combined in various sequences, this array of functional groups accounts for the broad spectrum of protein function. For instance, the chemical reactivity associated with these groups is essential to the function of </span>enzymes,<span> the proteins that catalyze specific chemical reactions in biological systems</span><span>

Question 1
D
Question 2
C
Question 3
D
Explanation:
1. An ecosystem is MOST likely to return to its original condition after Tall prairie grass burns after being struck by lightning.
Here is a research paper in which they explained how this happened. (Komarek, E. V. (1971). Lightning and fire ecology in Africa. In Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conference (Vol. 11, pp. 473-509).)
2. In some national parks, controlled fires are maintained by firefighters. The major reasons for using controlled burns to maintain certain ecosystems is to give nonnative plants a chance to colonize the region.
A recent article provided the insight of this situation (Xanthopoulos, G., Delogu, G. M., Leone, V., Correia, F. J., & Magalhães, C. G. (2020). Firefighting approaches and extreme wildfires. In Extreme Wildfire Events and Disasters (pp. 117-132). Elsevier.)
3. One reason for the change in the Galápagos ecosystem has been the introduction of species that were not on the island before, such as donkeys, goats, cats, dogs, and insects. The introduction of nonnative species MOST likely disrupt the balance of life on the islands due to greater competition for limited food sources.
Scientist said that food competition is actually a struggle to survive in any ecosystem here is the reference paper (Eckhardt, R. C. (1972). Introduced plants and animals in the Galapagos Islands. Bioscience, 22(10), 585-590.)
False. The number of trees is more than the number of trees cut down.
There are three common and principal types of polysaccharide, these are the cellulose, starch and glycogen. They are<span> all made by joining together molecules of glucose in different ways.
</span><span>The polysaccharide that plants store in plastids is starch.</span>
Ok here we go:
Science starts with observing which leads to hypothesis, which is tested by experiments.
The other two i am not sure of. Hope i was a help to you. One thing you can do to figure out the other two is google: "what type of science includes medicine and envirnmental science", and do the same for the other one.
