Respuesta
  • Cell recognition
  • Cell movement
  • Cell division
  • None of these

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
What is the difference between a peptide and a protein?
Respuesta
  • Peptides are constructed in the N-to-C direction, whereas proteins are in the C-to-N direction.
  • There are no differences between the two.
  • A peptide is a single string of amino acids, whereas a protein may contain multiple peptides.
  • Proteins can form peptides, but peptides cannot form proteins.

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
Why are saturated fats more solid than unsaturated?
Respuesta
  • None of these
  • Unsaturated fatty acids have a kink in their tail, which makes it harder to pack together resulting in decreased rigidity.
  • Unsaturated fatty acids have a lower melting temperature.
  • Unsaturated fatty acids have fewer hydrogens, thus they are not capable of forming as many hydrophobic forces as saturated fatty acids.

Pregunta
When in an aqueous environment amphipathic molecules have a tendency to ....
Respuesta
  • form micelles and bilayers.
  • aggregate into plaques.
  • polymerize into larger macromolecules.
  • None of these
