Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

The molecule given in the question, a polypeptide, is formed by the bonding of multiple amino acid molecules by peptide bonds and forming proteins by combining more polypeptides together. It is stated that the polypeptide contains 100 amino acids and since two amino acids are bonded together by a peptide bond, the total number of peptide bonds present in the polypeptide is therefore 99, one less than the total number of amino acid molecules.

I hope this answer helps.

Coin flipping simulates the events of mitosis and the production of sperm. This is because females carry XX chromosomes so all eggs will have a singular X chromosome. It is the sperm that determines the sex of the foetus: males have XY chromosomes and therefore sperm will carry either X or Y chromosomes (a 50/50 chance, just like flipping a coin)

As fraternal twins develop from two different eggs hence, the chances in them having the same disease will be lower. Identical twins develop from the same egg, hence they will have more chances of having the same inherited disease.
