What kind of protein forms the support for the DNA in a chromosome?
homoglobine
Job of chromosomes?
the job of a chromosome is that it contains genetic information that is passed from one generation to the next.
what is The helix that forms in a protein chain as a result of hydrogen bonds and other weak forces is an example of?
Secondary Structure of protein
What special structure forms the communication channel between animal cells?
cell membranes
What is a disk protein at the centromere region of the chromatid that serves as a platform for assembling microtubules?
When a chromosome has replicated and is preparing for division, the two chromatids are connected by the centromere. The centromere is the site where the kinetochore forms. The kinetochore forms the attachment with the spindle fibers.

What forms the structure of a membrane?
protein and fats

Secondary Structure of protein
Primary protein structure is dependent on?
Primary protein structure is the order of amino acids that compose the protein and their arrangement into 2 dimensional structures like sheets or helixes is secondary. Tertiary structure is the mixed composition of secondary forms to make a three dimension protein and quaternary structure is how the protein becomes part of a functional unit like hemoglobin inside of a blood molecule.
A rod-shaped structure that forms when a single DNA molecule and its associated proteins coil tightly before cell division is called?
Chromosome.
Channels within the structure of the cell membrane are composed of....?
Simply stated: ProteinsChannels within the structure of the cell membrane are composed of proteins. A protein that forms an ion channel through a membrane is called a transmembrane protein.
What special structure forms the communication channel between animal cells?
cell membranes

What are the comparative and the superlative of the word chromosome?
Chromosome is not an adjective so it doesn't have comparative or superlative forms
Why are protein structure is important?
Proteins are composed of amino acids, each of which have their own special properties. The nonpolar amino acids would fold into the interior of the protein during protein folding, because they are hydrophobic. A protein consists of a primary structure, which consists of the amino acid chain. The secondary structure is how the amino acids join together into alpha helixes and beta pleated chains and form hydrogen bonds. The tertiary structure is when disulfide bridges form, which maintain the protein's 3-d shape, and the 3-d shape begins to emerge. The quarternary structure is an assortment of several polypeptides, and constitutes the entire protein. The final shape of the protein determines its function.
What is the special molecule used in protein synthesis?
Ribosomes translate messenger RNA into proteins.
