In 1988, Richardson and Richardson observed that certain amino acid residues are statically favored as the amino-terminal caps for the alpha helices in 45 globular proteins. Which of the following statement stand correct with stability of helix?

A. The introduction of a negatively charged side chain at the N-cap, which can neutralize the partial dipole created by the unpaired amide protons, has been shown to increase stability

B. In particular, Gly is often observed at the both C-cap position and N-cap positions

C. In particular, Gly is often observed at the C-cap position only

D. In particular, Gly is often observed at the C-cap position, Asn at the N-cap position, Pro at the Ncap+1 and Asp and Glu at N2 and N3

Which of the following statement is correct? 

A. Darwin, theory of natural selection based on better-adapted organisms would acquire more resources and leave more offspring.

B. When population sizes become too small, individuals accumulate deleterious (harmful) mutations, and survival of offspring is threatened

C. Inbreeding is more likely to take place in nature when population size becomes very small and the number of mates is limited.

D. Effective population size can be reduced by harem mating structures

E. The movement of a few individuals between populations can counteract the effects of genetic drift
