  1. Every species has only unique proteins. FALSE

    Determining sequence homology is an important tool for predicting protein structure and function. TRUE

    Protein function is directly related to the protein's tertiary structure. TRUE

    Protein function can be predicted from amino acid sequence. TRUE

    The tertiary structure of a protein is more highly conserved than the primary structure. TRUE

    Explanation:

    Every species has only unique proteins. FALSE

    There are homolog proteins among species, that share ancestry. It can be for a speciaton events, and this are called orthologs, or due a gene duplication event, and this are called paralogs.  

    Determining sequence homology is an important tool for predicting protein structure and function. TRUE

    Sequence homology of an unknown protein can be useful since the primary structure can be used for modeling the protein structure, and also this information can be compared with databases of proteins of known function and retrieve predictive information about this protein function. Proteins with similar amino acid sequence usually do similar biochemical functions.

    Protein function is directly related to the protein's tertiary structure. TRUE

    In most cases, structure dictates the biochemical function of the protein. Protein functions are as diverse as protein structures.

    Protein function can be predicted from amino acid sequence. TRUE

    The primary structure (sequence of aminoacids) can lead to the elucidation of the secondary and tertiary structure of the proteins, since the sequence of the residues, and the nature of them (hydrophobic, aromatic, hydrophilic, basic, etc). This will shape the tridimensional form of the protein.

    The tertiary structure of a protein is more highly conserved than the primary structure. TRUE

    There can be changes in the amino acid sequences, but if they are amino acids of the same family, they will interact similar and maintain the tertiary structure with minimum changes.  

  2. b. cost - volume profit analysis

    Explanation:

    Cost - volume profit analysis (CVP) is a tool the is used for mix of products sold, unit variable cost, total fixed costs, break-even point, sales volume, selling price.

    CVP is a way that business gauge the different levels of cost and production volume on profit.

    CVP is also called break even analysis which determines at which production level a business makes profit.

    This analysis assumes that price, variable cost and fixed cost are constant.

    The analysis allows companies get an accurate volume of units of products that will begin to bring in profits (break even)

  3. Cost-volume-profit analysis.

    Explanation:

    An important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is cost-volume-profit analysis. It is an important tool in accounting that is used to determine how changes in differing levels of activities such as costs and volume affect a company's operating financial statements, both income and net income. It is also an accounting concept known as the break even analysis.

    In order to use this cost-volume-profit analysis, accountants usually make some assumptions and these are;

    1. Sales price per unit product is kept constant.

    2. Variable costs per unit product are kept constant.

    3. Total fixed costs of production are kept constant.

    4. All the units produced are sold.

    5. The costs accrued are as a result of change in business activities.

    6. A company selling more than a product should simply sell in the same mix.

  4. Cost volume profit Analysis

    Explanation:

    Cost volume profit Analysis is a tool which depicts the relationship between level of activity, revenue , cost and profit. It is an important tool adopted by accountants to help carry out any of the following analyses:

    Break-even point - The level of activity to achieve a zero profit. Where no profit or loss is made .

    Target profit Analysis; The level of activity to be that would he;p achieve a specific amount of profit

    Margin of safety - To determine the amount by which budgeted sales exceeds the break-even sales
