The answer to this question would be: <span>producing large quantities of proteins for secretion

Cell with many smooth endoplasmic reticulum has a high protein synthesis capability. This will make the cell able to produce many proteins like enzyme. One example of this type of cell will be hepatocyte or cell in the liver. This cell will need many enzymes to detoxify toxin in the body.</span>

The right answer is synthesize large quantities of lipids.

It should be known that there are two types of endoplasmic reticulum: rough (contains ribosomes) and smooth (does not contain ribosomes).

The rough endoplasmic reticulum harvests in its light the proteins synthesized by the ribosomes attached to its surface. The proteins then move inside the light to be eventually transported to the Golgi apparatus, where they will complete their maturation and be distributed to the different compartments of the cell.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum carries, associated with its membrane, the enzymes necessary for the synthesis of lipids and lipoproteins (molecules associating a protein part and a lipid part). Very reduced in the majority of cells, the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is very extensive in cells specialized in the synthesis of lipids (adipocytes) or in that of lipoproteins (hepatocytes for example).

Each transfer RNA requires at least four specific recognition sites that must be inherent in its tertiary structure in order for
Jet001 [13]

Answer: The options are not included.

But the sites are;

Interaction with ribosomes.

Interaction with aminoacyl tRNA

synthase.

Attachment of the specific Amino acid.

Interaction with codon.

Explanation:

Transfer RNA is a type of RNA that help to translate messenger RNA sequence into protein. Each tRNA have two major areas; the anticodon and region for attaching specific Amino acids.

tRNAs function at specific sites in the ribosomes during mRNA deciding.

The four specific recognition sites of trna that must be inherent in it's tertiary structures in order for it to carry out it's role are;.

Interaction with ribosomes.

Interaction with aminoacyl tRNA synthase.

Attachment of specific Amino acid.

Interaction with codon.

Leni [432]

Answer: All the above options are correct about the characteristics of Lumbriculus variegatus.

Explanation:

Lumbriculus variegatus also called the black worm belongs to the phylum Annelida and is used by biologists to illustrate:

-blood vessel pulsations,

-swimming reflex,

-peristaltic crawling behavior,

-giant nerve fiber action potentials.

These studies where carried out on them due to the characteristics they possess. These includes:

-its blood circulates in a closed circulatory system

-Freshwater worm found throughout North America and Europe

-Prefers the shallow habitats found at the edges of ponds, lakes, or marshes

-Feeds on decaying vegetation and microorganisms.
