The cilia propel debris-laden mucus away from lower respiratory system structures.

<h3>What is function of mucous membrane?</h3>
  • Another general defense against possible infections is provided by the mucous membranes that line the digestive, urinary, and respiratory tracts, as well as the nose, mouth, and lungs.
  • In order to cover and protect the more delicate cell layers underneath it and to trap waste and particle matter, including microorganisms, mucous membranes are made up of a layer of epithelial cells connected by tight junctions.
  • Because they feature ciliated appendages, which resemble hairs, the epithelial cells lining the upper portions of the respiratory tract are known as ciliated epithelial cells.
  • Mucus that contains debris is forced out and away from the lungs by the cilia's movement. The mucus is then coughed up, sneezed out, or swallowed and destroyed in the stomach. The mucociliary escalator is another name for this route of elimination.

HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLY!! The dominant allele is not completely expressed when the recessive allele is present.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

I will give you an explanation, and try to figure it out!!

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance can occur because neither of the two alleles is fully dominant over the other, or because the dominant allele does not fully dominate the recessive allele. This results in a phenotype that is different from both the dominant and recessive alleles, and appears to be a mixture of both.

Proteins that are embedded within, and extend across, the phospholipid bilayer are called _____ proteins. rev: 02_22_2014_qc_455
brilliants [131]

Proteins that are embedded within, and extend across, the phospholipid bilayer are called <u>Integral Protein</u>.

Integral Protein- Any protein containing a unique functional area for the purpose of ensuring its location within the cellular membrane is referred to as an integral protein, which is also referred to as an integral membrane protein. Or, to put it another way, an integral protein seizes the cellular membrane.

Cellular membrane- All cells have a cell membrane, also known as a plasma membrane, which divides the inside of the cell from the external environment. A semipermeable lipid bilayer makes up the cell membrane. The movement of materials into and out of the cell is controlled by the cell membrane.
