carboxyl group, side chain (R) attached to their alpha-carbon atom, amino group

All amino acids have a/an: This is a multiple answer question, so select all correct answer options. carboxyl group. side chain (R) attached to their alpha-carbon atom. phosphate group. two hydrophobic fatty acid tails. five-carbon sugar. nitrogen-containing ring compound (nitrogenous base). amino group. hydrophilic head.

carboxyl group, phosphate group, hydrophilic head, two hydrophobic fatty acid tails

All phospholipids have a/an: This is a multiple answer question, so select all correct answer options. nitrogen-containing ring compound (nitrogenous base). five-carbon sugar. carboxyl group. phosphate group. hydrophilic head. amino group. two hydrophobic fatty acid tails. side chain (R) attached to their alpha-carbon atom.

it would be energetically unfavorable for carbon to either gain or lose four electrons from its outer shell. sharing four electrons gives carbon a full outer orbital.

Carbon tends to form covalent bonds because: This is a multiple answer question. Chose all answer options that are correct and answer the question. sharing four electrons gives carbon a full outer orbital. carbon tend to not become either an anion or cation. it would be energetically unfavorable for carbon to either gain or lose four electrons from its outer shell. sharing four electrons allows carbon to form many shapes, including rings and linear and branching chains, which allows it to be the foundation of all organic molecules.

4

Carbon, which has four electrons in its outer shell (capacity 8 electrons), can form a maximum of how many covalent bonds with other atoms? a.0 b.2 c.4 d.8

gaining an electron would give it eight electrons in its outer shell, making a full orbital.

Chlorine tends to gain one electron because losing an electron would give it eight electrons in its outer shell, making a full orbital. sharing electrons would not give it a full outer orbital. sharing electrons gives it a full outer orbital. gaining an electron would give it eight electrons in its outer shell, making a full orbital.
