Which feature of the kinetics of L-Alanine transport would provide evidence that DOM is an important source of nutrients under low-food conditions?

High affinity transport (Kt) of L-Alanine

-Under low food conditions, the capacity of transport is irrelevant as no transporters are saturated with L-alanine

-However, the transporter's affinity for L-alanine would be important as only HIGH AFFINITY transporters will be able to facilitate L-alanine uptake at low concentrations

hydroxyl -oh

alcohols, always polar, can form hydrogen bonds with h2o molecules

carboxyl -cooh  

cargoxylic acids, has acidic properties which is a source of hydrogen ions, found in cells in ionized for with a charge of oh-1

carbonyl > co

ketone if within skeleton, aldehyde if group is at the end of skeleton, k & a may be structural isomers, it determines 2 sugars (ketose & aldose)

amino -nh2

amines, acts as a base, it can pick up h+ ions from surrounding solution, ionized with charge of 1+

methyl ch2

addition to rna/dna affects and gene expression

phosphate -opo3 ²⁻

organic phosphates, contributes to negative charge to, molecule that it is a part of, and potential to react with h20

sulfhydryl -sh

thiols, cross-linking stabilize the protein, and it is structure

this is math not biology xd

not sure if this what   you'r looking for would be percent composition
