Why does the speed of a sound wave increase as it moves into deep water?

Biology
1 answer:
lesya [120]3 years ago
5 0
Water temperature and pressure determine how far sound travels in the ocean. ... The whale produces sound waves that move like ripples in the water. As the whale's sound waves travel through the water, their speed decreases with increasing depth (as the temperature drops), causing the sound waves to refract downward.

Where would the leucine side chain most likely be found in a protein dissolved in water?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Burried in protein

Explanation:

Leucine have a branched hydrocarbon side chain. The side chain of leucine is nonpolar and hydrophobic.

If a protein have to face water, proteins fold in such a way during the tertiary structure that the amino acid with polar characteristics tend to remain on outer surface while amino acid with nonpolar characteristics tend to remain in the core of protein.

So Leucine side chain would be found burried in core of protein.
