Answer:
Element
Explanation:
An element is made up of a single type of atom, that is, it’s a substance made up of atoms that have the same number of protons in the nucleus, this number is known as the atomic number of the element. An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains its properties.Each element is made up of atoms with the same chemical properties such as reactivity, ionization potential. Chemical elements are identified by names given in antiquity, derived from some property of them, from the name of their discoverer, from the place of discovery. In nature there are 92 elements that can be presented (at 1 atm of pressure and 25 ºC) as solid: iron, lead; liquid: bromine, mercury or gas: chlorine, oxygen.
Answer: Antimicrobial proteins.
Explanation:
Antimicrobial proteins are the type of proteins produced by the keratinocytes on the body surfaces. These proteins acts as the barrier and kills the microorganism which is trying to enter the body.
These are larger proteins containing more than 100 amino acids. They are often lytic in nature.
The cell membrane of the microbes is disrupted by the action of these amino acids or proteins on them.
Answer: c. Amino Acids
Explanation:
Food is chemically and mechanically broken down into smaller particles like building blocks, the smallest of these are a basic unit called monomers. In the <em>stomach</em>, the enzyme pepsin breaks proteins, like those found in salmon, into smaller peptides by splitting the peptide bonds holding the proteins together. The <em>duodenum</em> processes these newly-formed peptide chains or polypeptides, into smaller ones, through the enzyme action of elastase, trypsin and chymotrypsin; these are produced in the pancreas. Peptidases convert these fragments into amino acid monomers for absorption into the bloodstream via the small intestines.
True because it makes since and it’s a better answer than false
