<span>Aminoacids have an amine (Nh2) group, a COOH group and a side-chain, joined by a center carbon: so the center carbon attaches to the N of the amine group, to the C of the COOH group, to another H and to the side-chain, which is different for each aminoacid (and it's usually written as "R")
I hope that my answer is helpful! Let me know if you need something more :)</span>

All amino acids have a center carbon. The center carbon has four different molecules attached to it, these are: AMINO GROUP [NH2], CARBOXYL GROUP [COOH], AN R GROUP [R] AND A HYDROGEN ATOM. There are twenty different amino acids in existence, each amino acid differ from another one based on their R groups. The R group is specific and unique to each amino acid. The center carbon in amino acid structure is also called alpha carbon.

NeTakaya
Plasma proteins account at least 8% of the plasma, they contribute to osmotic pressure and maintain water balance in blood and tissues, other functions includes transport and enzymatic activities. Plasma proteins include albumin, fibrinogen and globulin (alpha, beta and gamma). Globulin proteins may be used to fight infections such that gamma globulin antibodies are released by the plasma during immune response.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

<u>a) strong joints with restricted movement.</u>

Explanation:

Joints which are closely fitted cannot allow free movement because movement requires space in the joint so the bones can move in this space. So a closely fitted joint allow restricted or no movement at all. Weak joints with restricted movements are called weak because they are not well fitted closely. Strong joints with restricted movement is closely fitted, one of the example is joints of skull.
