Answer:

A

Explanation:

Disulfide bridges in proteins are made of covalent bonds between two sulfurs adjacent to each other in a protein. Therefore Cysteines who's side groups have sulfurs are significant determining the position and number of S=S bonds in a protein. Because covalent bonds are the strongest bonds, they stabilize a protein  making it is hard to denature.  The more the S=S bonds the higher the stability of the protein.  An example of proteins with S=S bonds is keratin, the protein that makes nails and curly hair.

Answer:

The change leads to increased protein stability because of an increased number of S-S bonds in the tertiary structure of protein.

Explanation:

Disulfide bond:

This is the bond in which sulfur of one amino acid forms a covalent bond with the sulfur of another amino acid.

Proteins contain normally two amino acids which have sulfur in their structure these are Methionine and cysteine

Disulfide bridges formation:

The disulfide bridges are formed by the oxidation of cysteine with the sulfhydryl groups. These bridges are important in the stabilization of the protein tertiary structure. These disulfide bridges are also responsible for bringing the hydrogen bonds closer in two parts of a chain.

Best Choice:

The change leads to increased protein stability because of an increased number of S-S bonds in the tertiary structure of a protein.

How did economics delay scientists' first attempts for conservation in each story?
tankabanditka [31]

The correct answer to this question is the following.

Unfortunately, your question is incomplete. You did not attach the two stories. So we do not know what the topic is. You also forgot to attach a link or the title of these stories.

However, trying to help you we did some deep research and can comment on the following.

There are two stories about Conservation Activity. One is about "Using Forest Wisely" and the other is about "Community Conservation."

If that is the case, we can say that the economics delay scientists' first attempts for conservation affect the conservation study and the environment in that cutting those trees for economic purposes directly impact the wildlife and nature of the region.

Trees are the sentient beings that produce the oxygen human beings need to breathe fresh air. They clean the air because trees "breathe" carbon dioxide. The uncontrolled cutting down of trees could affect because resources could be scarce, increasing prices of goods.

One of the stories refers to the case of gorillas in places such as Rwanda or Uganda, risking the habitat of these animals and the entire environment of those forests, which also results in affecting the economy of the places.

Give three reasons why you might have a situation in which bacterial colonies were found on the first section of a streak plate,
Agata [3.3K]

Hi. You have not shown the sections this question refers to, nor have you provided more information about those sections. This makes it difficult for your question to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Generally speaking, we can consider that there was no growth of bacterial colonies in sections 2 and 3, because, for some reason, the bacteria was not inoculated in sections 2 and 3. What could also have happened, is that the bacteria in the sections 2 and 3 were eliminated, but the bacteria from section 1 managed to survive and form colonies.

Another possibility is that after inoculating the bacteria in section 1, you didn't handle the bacteria correctly in the other sections, leaving that bacteria to dry out and die.

Finally, the culture media in sections 2 and 3 could be inappropriate for bacteria to develop and form colonies.
