Most enzymes are proteins. Many cells make and use an enzyme called catalase to facilitate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxid
e (H2O2). The products of the decomposition are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). Stephanie is investigating the structure and function of catalase, and she is comparing catalase to other proteins. What can Stephanie predict will distinguish the structure of catalase from the structures of the other proteins she is studying? A. many regions made entirely of hydrogen and oxygen B. the chemical properties of the peptide bonds C. the types of amino acids it contains D. the sequence of amino acids it contains
The correct answer is - B. the chemical properties of the peptide bonds.
Explanation:
The difference between the structures of catalase from other proteins depends on the chemical properties of the peptide bonds present in between the amino acids which decide the pH and temperature by their disruption. These bonds present between two alpha-amino acids when carboxyl of one amino acid interacts with the amino group of the other to form an amide-type covalent bond.
The function of mitochondria and chloroplasts is related to energy. In what way does their function differ? Mitochondria produce energy in prokaryotic cells, while chloroplasts produce energy in eukaryotic cells. ... While the chloroplast get there food from the suns energy through the process of photosynthesis.
