The portion of the membrane that faces the lumen is called the apical membrane.

Membrane is the lipid bilayer that surrounds the cell on its outer surface. The membrane serves various functions like: protection, cell shape and integrity and regulate the traffic of molecules across the membrane. It is semi-permeable in nature.

Lumen is the hollow portion present inside any organ or tube like the artery or intestine. It is a Latin word that means 'an opening'. The lumen of different organs served various purposes. However, the major function is the transport of substances like air, nutrients, waste materials, immune cells, hormones, etc.

The advantage of excreting nitrogenous wastes as urea instead of ammonia is that:________ a) urea requires more water for excret
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: B

Explanation:

Ammonia is so toxic that it can be transported and excreted only in large volumes of very dilute solution. As a result most terrestrial animals simply don't have access to sufficient water to routine excrete ammonia.

The main advantage of urea is its very low toxicity. Animals can transport urea in the circulatory system and store it safely in high concentrations. Also much less water is loss when a given quantity of nitrogen is excreted in a concentrated solution of urea than would be in a dilute solution of ammonia.

Next the researchers repeated the experiment in part c but instead of mixing the ax and ay strains, they put one strain on each
Nadya [2.5K]
The correct answer is none of the above.

Bacterial cells can transfer genetic material through a process called bacterial conjugation. This process involves the direct physical contact of the bacterial cells and a horizontal gene transfer. The genes which are transferred are most of the times beneficial for the recipient, such as genes for antibiotic resistance.

In this example, bacterial cells cannot have physical contact, since they are separated by a glass filter. Therefore, the bacterial conjugation cannot happen. Given that no gene transfer can be achieved, the AY strain remains bio- trp- and is unable to grow on any medium that lacks bio or/and trp.
