Both proteins and nucleic acids (like DNA and RNA) can be denatured with heat.
Explain why this happens for both types of molecule and what is happening during
the heat-driven denaturing process. A complete answer should discuss
thermodynamic considerations such as entropy and enthalpy.
The molar mass of cellulose is approximately 6.0 x 105 g/mol and the molar mass of a soluble starch is on the order of 4.0 x 103 g/mol. The monomer unit in both of these molecules has the empirical formula C6H10O5. The units are about 5.0 x 10-10 m long. About how many units occur in each molecule, and how long are the molecules of cellulose and starch as a result?
A pentapeptide has the amino acid sequence Gly-Ala-Gly-Phe-Cys. This describes as what kind of structure(s)
