Answer:

Active transport mechanisms require the use of the cell’s energy, usually in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Explanation:

If a substance must move into the cell against its concentration gradient, that is, if the concentration of the substance inside the cell must be greater than its concentration in the extracellular fluid, the cell must use energy to move the substance. Some active transport mechanisms move small-molecular weight material, such as ions, through the membrane.

In addition to moving small ions and molecules through the membrane, cells also need to remove and take in larger molecules and particles.

How do you change dna to rna to amino acids

yanalaym [24]

This can be done through the Transcription and Translation process.

Long story short: DNA -> messenger RNA (mRNA) -> amino acids -> polypeptide chain -> protein

Step 1: Transcription
1) DNA loop is open
2) RNA polymerase (enzyme in nucleus) catalyze reaction of “unzipping” DNA
3) free RNA nucleotides in nucleus will be added to that strand of DNA
4) messenger RNA moves across nuclear membrane to cytoplasm (our nucleus)

Step 2: Translation
1) messenger RNA attaches to ribosome
2) mRNA determines which amino acid to place on protein
3) uses codons (triplet) on mRNA. Codon on mRNA and anticodon on tRNA have to match, which places true amino acid in ribosome, then it detached and finds another amino acid in cytoplasm.
4) “AUG” starts translation, and keeps going until reaching “stop codon”.
5) completed polypeptide chain results to protein being synthesized

Your teacher should explain this process more in depth hopefully

iogann1982 [59]

Explanation:

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions.
A substrate is the molecule that the enzyme acts upon and converts to product.
An active site is the part of the enzyme where the substrate binds to it. Active sites contain a specific amino acid sequence and conformation which make it easy for the substrate to bind.
Enzymes are stringently substrate specific i.e. only a certain substrate can fit in and bind to the active site of a specific enzyme, just like only one key can fit into a specific lock.

Explain in at least five sentences what you've learned about how

mestny [16]

Explanation: I'd first address the issue as a whole and explain the meaning and the general impacts of climate change, then use a variety of different places. For example, global warming causes the ice caps to melt in Antarctica. Then, explain how this has an impact on the environment meaning that polar bears could be in life-threatening situations and possibly even become extinct in the future which has a further impact on other animals in that food chain and ecosystem. This is just one example. You could also explain the unbearable heat in countries nearer the equator, which prevent crops from growing; the sea levels rising; or extreme weather events like huge flooding or heatwaves. It depends what you have learnt about in class, but I'm assuming it would be about this sort of thing.
