Is the heme molecule attached to hemoglobin during the primary level or tertiary level of organization?

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Tertiary.

Explanation:

Primary structure of proteins refers to the order of amino acids that make up the protein. The heme is an nonprotein non-amino acid, so it is not involved at this stage.

Tertiary structure of proteins is the overall 3-D folding of the protein (it comes after secondary, which involves folding into a repeated pattern). The heme bonds to its correct position on the hemoglobin during this stage and helps in correct folding.

Answer:

Box 1: AA

Box 2: Aa

Box 3: AA

Explanation:

In order to figure out the pedigree, you first have to do a punnet square- kind of like cross-multiplying. EX: For the first box: Aa x AA

For box one, we know that it is Aa, and not AA, because box 2 has to be AA.

We know that because Aa X Aa would give us some "aa" offspring which we do not see in the last generation (see 2nd pic). The only way to get no "aa" offspring is to have an AA X Aa cross.
