1.Proteins are linear polymers built of monomer units called amino acids. The construction of a vast array of macromolecules from a limited number of monomer building blocks is a recurring theme in biochemistry. Does protein function depend on the linear sequence of amino acids? The function of a protein is directly dependent on its threedimensional structure.<span>Remarkably, proteins spontaneously fold up into three-dimensional structures that are determined by the sequence of amino acids in the protein polymer. Thus, </span>proteins are the embodiment of the transition from the one-dimensional world of sequences to the three-dimensional world of molecules capable of diverse activities<span>.
</span>2.Proteins contain a wide range of functional groups<span>. These functional groups include alcohols, thiols, thioethers, carboxylic acids, carboxamides, and a variety of basic groups. When combined in various sequences, this array of functional groups accounts for the broad spectrum of protein function. For instance, the chemical reactivity associated with these groups is essential to the function of </span>enzymes,<span> the proteins that catalyze specific chemical reactions in biological systems</span><span>

<span>Something that occurs outside the spheres of the earth
Consider that human beings or living organisms live in the biosphere. Biosphere is the collective group of living organisms and their interaction to one another and –ecosystem- to their environment. Human beings like animals or plants are part of the biosphere, one of the spheres in the earth. We have the atmosphere (air), lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water) and the biosphere (life/ living organisms). Each is with a specific and distinctive characteristics to play in the earth’s existence at the current era.<span>

Answer:
Fraction-of-occurrences of 115In isotope 
Explanation:
As we know weight of 113 In isotope is equal to the sum of product of fraction-of-occurrences of two constituents isotopes and their atomic weight
------(1)
As we know sum of fraction-of-occurrences of two constituents isotopes is equal to one.
---------(2)
Substituting the given values in equation 1, we get
Substituting this value in equation 2 we get -
Answer: C. scorpions have changed as a result of natural selection
Explanation:
The text tells us that scorpions today are now smaller than they were in the past. This means that the scorpions have changed since then i.e. they have evolved.
The primary reason for evolution is natural selection which refers to a situation whereby only the organisms that are better adapted in their species survive.
The conclusion that can be drawn from this research therefore is that we have smaller scorpions today because they stood a better chance of survival than the larger ones and so survived whilst the larger ones died out.
The answer for this question is C, I just did my final for Biology and got a good score in it.
Hope it helps!
