Why are ducks waterproof? It’s because they produce copious amounts of oils from their uropygial glands and spread it across their feathers. In this exercise, we’ll be investigating the molecular structure of one of these preen oils to determine how it keeps ducks dry.
The image of an amino acid is shown below with letters, A-D representing the four parts of an amino acid. Identify each part by stating letter A-D and what part of the molecule it refers to. 1a. Describe the physical properties of amino acids.
You have come down with a nasty cold and would like to understand why the virus thatinfected you is making you feel so lousy. With a few facts given here, you can show that theinfected cells are now very full of virus particles, resulting in your current condition.A. Calculate the volume of a eukaryotic cell, in liters (L).B. Calculate the concentration, in Molarity, M, of a single virus within that cell. Note: this is theconcentration of any single molecule within a cell.C. Calculate the concentration, in Molarity, M, of 105 (100,000) virus particles —a typicalnumber produced by a viral infection — within that cell.D. If each virus particle is 100 nm in diameter, calculate the “excluded volume” — the spaceoccupied by those 100,000 virus particles. Compare this to the volume of the cell. In otherwords, what fraction of the cells total volume is currently being occupied by virus particles?E. Estimate the average distance between the 105 virus particles in the eukaryotic cell.
