The human hemoglobin is a tetrameric protein of about 64.5 KDa, consisting of two α-
chains and two β-chains tightly bound.
a) Calculate the number of amino acids present in the α-chains
b) What is the length of each β-chain?
c) What is the sum of the length of the two α-chains?
d) Find the length of the tetrameric protein hemoglobin assuming its all an alpha
helical structure.
Suppose that the market demand for facial mud packs are given as follows: P = 2,200 – Q. Mud packs can be produced at no cost. Determine the level of output that would be produced by each firm in a Cournot duopoly in the long run. Calculate the price charged for mud packs. Show all calculations. [9]

backbone and peptide bonds
b) Calculate the weight of the protein in KDa
c) Calculate the length of the protein.
