Answer:A
Explanation:Ice on the leg for 20 minutes has no effect on the prevention of DVT
Amino acids are acids on one hand, and a base on the other hand.
<h3>What is an acid?</h3>
An acid is a substance that produces hydrogen or hydroxonium ions as the only positively charged ion when it ionizes.
All amino acids have an amine group -
and a carboxylic group -
.
The carboxylic group ionizes such that:
The presence of the amine group enables amino acids to also act as a base.

#SPJ1
That would be C.
Invasive species are brought to a new area by human activities.
The answer would be A—the molecular formula given is that of a long-chain, saturated fatty acid, which would be insoluble in water (i.e., hydrophobic).

B describes carbohydrates, which can function as a storage of energy (e.g., starch or glycogen) or structural components (e.g., cellulose). The three examples just given are polymers of glucose, a monosaccharide; monosaccharide generally have the empirical formula CH2O; this is not the empirical formula of the given molecule (and, in any case, there are too few oxygen atoms for the number of carbon atoms), and so B is incorrect.
C describes an amino acid, likely an α-amino acid, which consist of a central, saturated carbon bonded to amino (—NH2) and carboxyl (—C(=O)OH) functional groups and a variable side chain, which determines the amino acid’s properties. Since the formula of an amino acid must contain nitrogen, which the formula given doesn’t have, the molecule couldn’t be an amino acid, and so C is incorrect.
D describes nucleic acids. Examples include DNA and RNA; nucleic acids and the nucleotide monomers that comprise them contain a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group. The given molecule’s formula has neither nitrogen nor phosphorus, and so cannot represent an amino acid, making D incorrect.
The answer for the above question is Mutation.
Mutations are random spontaneous changes that occur suddenly in the DNA. A single mutation can have a large effect, however in may cases evolutionary changes are based on the accumulation of many mutations. The gene flow is any movement of genes from one generation to another and is an important source of mutation
