The inside of the barrel-shaped LDL protein consists of hydrophobic amino acids, while its outside portions in contact with the blood fluid consist of hydrophilic amino acids.
LDL is a type of lipoprotein, i.e., it contains protein as well as lipid (cholesterol). The full form of LDL is Low Density Lipid. LDL is considered to be the bad cholesterol for the body. It can cause diseases of the heart like heart attack or stroke.
Amino acids are the essential molecule that act as a monomer for the formation of proteins inside the body. They contain an amino group and a carboxylic group attached to the same carbon atom. There are also a hydrogen atom and a variable R group attached to the carbon, also called the alpha carbon.

Answer:
Half-Life is the time for a substance (U-235 in this case) to decay to 1/2 its original mass.
Since the problem is asking for the time for U-235 to decay to 1/2 its original mass (100 grams to 50 grams) then the decay time is 1 half-life, or 700 million years.
hope it helps u kindly mark as brainliest...
Answer:
The height to which to tomato plants grow
Explanation:
In an experiment, the dependent variable is the variable that the experimenter measures. It is the variable that responds to changes made to the independent/manipulable variable.
According to this question, students investigate how soil pH affects the height of tomato plants. The different pH each plant receives is the independent variable while the HEIGHT OF THE PLANTS that responds to the soil pH or that is measured by the students is the DEPENDENT VARIABLE.
The symptom that the client is experiencing is consistent with the deficiency in the Vitamin A which is a dietary element. The vitamin A is responsible for causing dryness to the eyes if a person is lacking this type of dietary element as Vitamin A is the one responsible for providing healthy vision for an individual.
Answer:
2 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of NADH
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration (break down of glucose to extract energy) which occurs in the cytoplasm. Glycolysis is a pathway common to all living organisms- prokaryotes and eukaryotes, as it does not require oxygen to occur.
Glycolysis occurs in two major phases (ten steps) requiring 10 enzymes catalyzing each step; the energy-requiring phase and the energy-requiring phase.
In the energy-requiring phase, the starting molecule (glucose) gets rearranged in a series of chemical reactions, and two phosphate groups gets attached to it producing fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is unstable, This modified sugar then splits in half due to its instability to form two different but inter-convertible phosphate-bearing three-carbon sugars (Dihydroxyacetonephosphate, DHAP and Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, G3P). Because the phosphates used in these steps come from 2 ATP molecules, 2 ATP molecules get used up in this phase
All the DHAP molecules get converted to G-3-P in order to enter the next phase.
In the energy-recovering phase, the 3-carbon sugar (G3P) is converted into another three-carbon molecule called pyruvate, through a series of reactions. In these reactions, two ATP and 1 NADH molecules are made. This recovery phase occurs twice (one for each of the two isomeric three-carbon sugars, DHAP and G3P). Hence, a total of 4 ATP and 2 NADH molecules are produced in this phase.
Overall, Glycolysis converts one glucose (six-carbon) molecule to two pyruvate (three-carbon) molecules and a net release of 2 ATP molecules (4 overall - 2 used) and 2 NADH molecules.
