Consider a protein with five amino acids and three possible energy levels (separated by 1 J/mol) each amino acid can occupy.
At what temperature will there be 45% of molecules in conformation A and 55% of molecules in conformation B?
Comment on the size of this number and what distribution you would expect at room temperature. What does this mean about how "different" these energy levels are?
Look back at the figure and propose an error made in reporting units. What energy unit would have likely been more appropriate in this case?

But now we know that not all fat is the same. By understanding the difference between good and bad fats and how to include more healthy fat in your diet, you can improve your mood, boost your energy and well-being, and even lose weight. Since fat is an important part of a healthy diet, rather than adopting a low-fat diet, it’s more important to focus on eating more beneficial “good” fats and limiting harmful “bad” fats. What is their experience with the health risks associated with ‘bad fat’ intake for example obesity, diabetes, heart disease, strokes, cancer, etc.? Why is eating healthy so important? What are are recommendations for maintaining a healthy diet of ‘good fats’? What's the deal with fats?arrow_forward
