Which of these functional groups is found in all amino acids? -NH2 -OH =O -PO42-

melisa1 [442]

Answer : The correct option is, $-NH_2$

Explanation :

Amino acid : The acid that contains two functional groups that are carboxylic group, $-COOH$ and ammine group, $-NH_2$ .

When the two or more that two amino acids join together with the help of peptide bond, they produces polypeptide chain or protein.

The bond present between the two amino acid is called a peptide bond.

The peptide bond is a chemical bond that is formed between the two molecules when the nitrogen of one amino acid react with the carbon of another amino acid by releasing a water molecule. This is a dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction.

From this we conclude that, only two functional groups carboxylic group, $-COOH$ and ammine group, $-NH_2$ are present in all amino acids.

Hence, the correct option is, $-NH_2$

The bond angles in SCl2 are expected to be Multiple Choice a little more than 109.5°. 109.5°. 120°. a little less than 109.5°. 1

nalin [4]

Answer:

a little less than 109.5°

Explanation:

SCl2 has four regions of electron density around the central atom of the molecule. This implies that it has a tetrahedral electron domain geometry with an expected bond angle of 109.5° according to valence shell electron pair repulsion theory.

However, there are two lone pair of electrons on the central atom of the molecule which decreases the bond angle a little less than 109.5° owing to repulsion between electron pairs.

This drawing shows a human body system.

White raven [17]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the drawing referred to in the question.

However, each option refers to a particular respiratory system and with the organs and the tissues mentioned here one can eventually identify which option is correct when the drawing is available.

A) The system described here is the cardiovascular system (or the circulatory system). This system involves the heart, blood vessels and the blood (which are what help in the transport of the materials mentioned in the question).

B) The system described here is the digestive system. This system involves the gastrointestinal tract and organs (that assist in the production/secretion or storage of chemicals that breakdown food into smaller pieces) such as the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and the anus.

C) The system described here is the skeletal system. This system involves all the bones and joint in the body (the skeleton) which also helps in protecting organs in the body.

D) The system described here is the Endocrine system. This system involves several internal glands (such as the thyroid gland and the adrenal glands) in the body.

NOTE: Identify which organ and/or tissue is present in the diagram and use that to select the appropriate option from the description of each of the options provided above.

Round off each number to the indicated number significant figures (sf):

qaws [65]

Answer :

(a) The given number in 2 significant figures will be, $3.6\times 10^3$

(b) The given number in 4 significant figures will be, $3.583\times 10^1$

(c) The given number in 3 significant figures will be, $2.24\times 10^1$

Explanation :

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

(a) The given number 00003554 converted into 2 significant figures.

In 00003554, there are 4 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 2 significant figures.

The given number in 2 significant figures will be, $3.6\times 10^3$

(b) The given number 35.8348 converted into 4 significant figures.

In 35.8348, there are 6 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 4 significant figures.

The given number in 4 significant figures will be, $3.583\times 10^1$

(c) The given number 22.4555 converted into 3 significant figures.

In 22.4555, there are 6 significant figures. Now we have to convert it into 3 significant figures.

The given number in 3 significant figures will be, $2.24\times 10^1$
