Many of the d-amino acids found in nature have been discovered in bacterially produced peptides that have antibiotic properties. bacteria secrete these peptides into their environments to kill competitor bacteria and thereby gain a selective advantage. given your answer to part (a) of this question, what potential advantages might d-amino acids confer to a secreted peptide toxin?

the transfer of heat by electromagnetic radiation is called thermal radiation . it is usually carried out by electromagnetic waves in an energy range just below the visible spectrum, which is the infrared range.

so the answer would be radiation.

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
