Yeah, it would be AWFUL - simply AWFUL - to have a duplicate quiz. However, I don't see another quiz quite like it.

Cysteine is decidedly polar (-SH group), and tyrosine is nonpolar (hydroxyphenyl). Other than that it was a good quiz.

cysteine is definitely polar (as the SH in the side chain can dissociate from its proton to form S-. Tyrosine definitely isn't non-polar - it contains an OH group which can hydrogen bond to water molecules making it polar.
