The type of proteins that can function as the chemical messengers or as the receptors in the plasma membrane is a communication proteins; option A.

Proteins are large macromolecules composed of chains of amino acid units linked together by peptide bonds.

Proteins serve various functions such as:

communication

transport

defensive

enzyme

Communication of proteins such as the hormones can be function as the chemical messengers or as receptors in the plasma membrane.

Proteins are made up of hundreds or the thousands of the smaller units called as amino acids, which are attached to one another in the long chains. There are about 20 different types of amino acids that can be combined to make a protein.

How does a catalyst work? using these options...
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: D) By decreasing the activation energy of a reaction

A catalyst is a substance that speed up the rate of chemical reaction without affecting the product of the reaction. They only affect the rate of reaction not the yield of reaction.

Catalyst provide an alternative reaction pathway that has lower activation energy  than that of uncatalysed reaction. It increases the frequency of collision and because of these greater collision which lowers the activation energy of the reaction.

Water vapor in the air condenses into liquid droplets when the water reaches ____. A. A warm front B. Its critical elevation C.
Vsevolod [243]

C

Dew point is the temperature of an air mass in which the water vapor (humidity) starts to condense into droplets due to saturation. This is when dew begins to form.

Explanation:

The higher the temperature the higher the water vapor the air mass can hold. This is because the intermolecular spaces between the air molecules become larger with increased temperature hence can accommodate more water vapor molecules in between the air molecules. As the air mass cools the intermolecular spaces become shorter and the relative humidity of the air mass increases. At temperatures where the air mass can't accommodate its humidity, this is called the dew point, and the water vapor begins to condense into droplets (dew).
