The correct Answer is:
To determine the singly present amino acids in salmine, we need to analyze the given data regarding the weights of amino acids obtained from the hydrolysis of salmine. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: List the Amino Acids and Their Weights We have the following amino acids and their respective weights (in grams per 109.66 g of salmine): - Isoleucine: 1.31 g - Alanine: 0.89 g - Serine: 7.35 g - Arginine: 86.40 g - Valine: 3.51 g - Glycine: 3.0 g - Proline: 6.90 g ### Step 2: Identify the Molecular Weights of Each Amino Acid The molecular weights of the amino acids are provided as follows: - Molecular weight of Serine: 105 g/mol - Molecular weight of Alanine: 89 g/mol - Molecular weight of Arginine: 174 g/mol - Molecular weight of Isoleucine: 131 g/mol - Molecular weight of Proline: 115 g/mol - Molecular weight of Valine: 117 g/mol - Molecular weight of Glycine: 75 g/mol ### Step 3: Determine the Presence of Each Amino Acid To find out which amino acids are singly present, we need to check the weights of each amino acid. A singly present amino acid would typically have a weight that indicates it appears only once in the polypeptide chain. ### Step 4: Analyze the Weights From the given weights: - Isoleucine: 1.31 g - Alanine: 0.89 g - Serine: 7.35 g (appears multiple times) - Arginine: 86.40 g (appears multiple times) - Valine: 3.51 g (appears multiple times) - Glycine: 3.0 g (appears multiple times) - Proline: 6.90 g (appears multiple times) ### Step 5: Identify the Singly Present Amino Acids From the analysis, we can see that: - Isoleucine and Alanine are the only amino acids that have lower weights compared to others, suggesting they are present singly. ### Conclusion The singly present amino acids in salmine are: - **Isoleucine** - **Alanine**

To determine the singly present amino acids in salmine, we need to analyze the given data regarding the weights of amino acids obtained from the hydrolysis of salmine. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: List the Amino Acids and Their Weights We have the following amino acids and their respective weights (in grams per 109.66 g of salmine): - Isoleucine: 1.31 g - Alanine: 0.89 g - Serine: 7.35 g ...
