What else can I help you with?
You have been assigned the task of constructing a protein. What type of building block would you see?
Amino acids are the building blocks used to construct proteins. Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Each amino acid has a unique side chain that gives a protein its specific structure and function.
What is the term that describes acids which give a low concentration of hydronium ions?
Such acids are considered weak acids, such as organic acids.
Proteins are formed of building blocks called?
Amino acids held together by peptide bonds.
What repeating units make up a protein fatty acids peptide acids amino acids carboxylic acids?
A protein is made up of chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Fatty acids are the building blocks of lipids, while peptides are made up of chains of amino acids but are shorter than proteins. Carboxylic acids are organic compounds that contain a carboxyl group.
What does the code for genetic information change to during translation?
Nucleic Acids to Amino Acids--APEX
What monomers make up protiens?
amino acid

Can an amnio test while pregnant also tell you if your babys father was white or black?
They can do a DNA test with Amnio fluid. I think the test is like 3000 dollars though.
What is the function of the capilliary?
to permit the exchange of nutrients and waste between the blood and tissue cells substances such as oxygen, vitamins minerals and amnio acids passes through the tissue fluid to nourish the nearby cells and substances such as carbon dioxide and waste are passed out of the cells.
What is the function of tRNA.?
tRNA mediates recognition of the codon and provides the corresponding amino acid. It mainly is recognized for carrying amino acids. It then gives to it mRNA to translate the nucleotides proteins.
How many amnio acids are attached to a single transfer rna?
A single transfer RNA (tRNA) carries a single amino acid.
What determines the sequence of amino-acids in a protein?
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene that codes for that protein. This gene is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which is then translated into a specific sequence of amino acids based on the genetic code. Each set of three nucleotides (codon) in the mRNA specifies a particular amino acid to be added to the growing protein chain.
If a baby is being delivered at 37 weeks gestation is it best to have steroids a week before to help the baby's lung function?
Your choices would be to have an amnio to check for lung maturity or just have the injection. Since the amnio presents risks of it's own I would suggest having the steroid injection as a safeguard to your baby's health if this is what your doctor recommends.
What is the medical term meaning two sacs that enclose the embryo and what are their combining forms?
The chorion and the amnion form the amniotic sac. Their respective combining forms are chorio- and amnio-.
If your baby has bilateral pyelectasis and in the earlier tests there was a low risk for Down syndrome - 1 in 4000 - then should you go for the amniocentesis?
no, i would not risk an amnio, the odds are your baby is fine.
Why is thirty-five the recommended age to begin amnio testing?
that is the age at which the risk of carrying a fetus with such a defect roughly equals the risk of miscarriage caused by the procedure--about one in 200.
What is normal range nuchal fold during second trimester screening?
Under 3 mm is considered within normal range. These measurements are combined with additional blood hormone levels, put into an equation and that spits out a probablitiy of carrying a baby with defects. Usually if your chance is below 1/250 then you don't go onto doing a cvs or amnio - if it is higher, a CVS between 11-14 weeks and amnio after 18 weeks is recommended.
