Option A and C and D

Explanation:

Brut [27]

Answer:

b. the 20 amino acids found in proteins differ in the composition of their R groups, which may be either polar or charged.

Explanation:

Since the proteins are polymers joined by a big number of amino acids, all the joins occur the same way because in all the amino acids there is always one part that is exactly the same in all of them.

The rest of the molecule in the amino acids, the R group, is different in each one, that is the characteristic of each one, and this is the part that can give the name and some other chemical properties.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a. Independent Variable: throwing clothes (i.e., the bedroom)

The independent variable is a variable that isn't modified by the other variables measured in the experiment. Conversely, the dependent variable is the variable measured in the experiment which is 'dependent' on the independent variable. Finally, the control variable is a variable that is constant (i.e., unmodified) throughout the course of the experiment.
