Answer:
The right matching of the scenario in the question are as follows:
1. OBSERVATION: Josh noticed that Julie ordered extra hot peppers and added hot sauce to her food
2. QUESTION: Josh wondered how to cook spicy Mexican food.
3. HYPOTHESIS: Josh decided jalapenos would be a good ingredient to add spice to the recipe.
4. EXPERIMENT: After chopping the jalapenos, he slowly added some to the enchilada filling, tasting as he went until he thought it was spicy enough.
5. RESULTS: Julie thought the enchiladas were delicious and exactly the right level of spice.
6. CONCLUSION: Josh determined that since Julie liked the meal, adding jalapenos to the recipe was a good way to make it spicy.
Explanation:
Scientific method is an organized steps of procedures that scientists used to study and gather knowledge about different phenomenons. The systematic steps of scientific method start with observation, the observed phenomenon usually make a scientist to ask questions that he doesn't have an answer to. This will prompt him to formulate an hypothesis and set up an experiment to see if his hypothesis is true or not. The result he obtains from the experiment will determine the type of conclusion he will make about his earlier observation. By following these steps, scientists usually obtain useful information that bring progress and advancement to humanity.
The pKa represents the pH of the medium at which the zwitterionic amino acid assumes most stable ionic form due to structural stabilization. As the pKa is dependent upon the environmental factors of the solution around the amino acids, a change in their structure and localization can cause change in the pKa of the protein. Thus, the answers can be found as below:
Part A: Decrease (As the lysine is basic in nature, it will tend to stabilize the electrostatic interaction and weak interactions between the acidic amino acids and hydrogen bonds in the viscinity, thus lowering the pH and hence pKa of the protein)
Part B: Increase (As the carboxyl group is acidic in nature, removal of it will tend to increase the pKa since the basic amino acids will tend to accumulate more negative charge in their viscinity)
Part C: Increase (As glutamic acid is an acidic amino acid, its shift from outside to a non-polar site will prevents its ionization and hence the pKa will tend to shift from slightly acidic to slightly basic, hence increase)
I'll choose Golden Retrievers:
These dogs where created for duck-hunters. Their purpose was to go catch the ducks that fell on the lake/river once they were shot by the hunter - here we see how they serve (or actually served) men.
Nowadays, Golden Retrievers are known to like water a lot, and to be very playful with it - and here is where we see a genetic adaptation. They needed to be in water, and were modified to like it.
