In the hydrophobic core of a folded protein, there are three alanine and two phenylalanine residues that are buried, and do not interact with water. Assume: - In bulk solution, water molecules can take on 8 energetically equal states - Two waters immediately surround each alanine in the unfolded state. - Six waters surround each phenylalanine in the unfolded state. - In the unfolded state, water molecules surrounding the alanine can take on only four (4) energetically equal states while water around phenylalanine residues can take on only two (2) energetically equal states. When protein folds these water molecules are released into bulk solution. a) What is the difference in the entropy of the water due to the burying of these ALA and PHE residues as this protein folds. b) What is the water contribution to free energy of folding at 293K (kj/mol)?\

from my research i have to the conclusion that decomposers, such as fungi, bacteria and invertebrates, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and without them the earth's ecosystem may not support life as we know it. elements such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus exist in limited amounts on earth, although huge amounts of carbon are being released into the atmosphere from underground sources now by humans. it is still extremely important that other nutrients be retained by the process of re-use. decomposers are organisms that are able to chemically break down dead material and make these elements available for use by other organisms. without this breakdown of dead material, dead bodies would pile up. so decomposers also play a role in clean up also. without them, life might not continue as we know it and dead material would overwhelm the earth.

explanation:

population. population is the number of people or animals in a particular place. an example of population is over eight million people living in new york city.

here is your answer hope i .

more words for this could be abiotic and biotic

abiotic: living organisms within an ecosystem

biotic: non-living organisms within an ecosystem
