elixir [45]2 years ago

Atoms can have different numbers of which of the following electrons, protons neutrons or all of the above
OLEGan [10]
Atoms may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms are the smallest fraction of an element that can exist, and still show the properties of the element. They consists of electrons (negatively charged), protons (positively charged), and neutrons (no charge). The number of electrons is equivalent to the number of protons normally however an atom may loose or pick up electrons and  have a positive charge or negative charge. The number of neutrons in the nucleus may vary within a given element to give varieties of atoms we call isotopes.

Which linkages would you expect to find at a branch point in glycogen or amylopectin?
shusha [124]

Answer:

α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

The carbohydrates are the polymers made of the sugars and bonded together through the glycosisdic bonds. The monosaccharides are the simplest unit of the carbohydrates.

The glycogen and amylopectin share similar structural features. Both have α-1,4-glycosidic linkage in their linear structure. The branching has been introduced in the glycogen and amylopectin structure through the α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

Thus, the answer is α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

The issue of high cholesterol can sometimes run in families. If an individual has two normal alleles, then he is phenotypically
statuscvo [17]
In the case of the gene that determines high cholesterol in the blood, the two alleles express incomplete dominance.
What this means is that the dominant allele is not completely dominant over the recessive allele. If the allele was completely dominant, even one allele would be enough to determine the individual's trait as dominant. But in the case of incomplete dominance between the alleles, the heterozygous individuals that have one dominant and one recessive allele are an ''in between'' phenotype.
