What are the reasons for ultra-thin and transparent nature of epidermal cells?​

Biology
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Epidermal cells secrete the waxy hydrophobic substance cutin that polymerizes on the surface, forming a barrier to water evaporation. Epidermal cells are transparent because their plastids remain small and undifferentiated; hence light readily penetrates through to the photosynthetic tissues beneath the epidermis.

M protein is produced by
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- <em>Streptococcus pyogenes.</em>

Explanation:

M protein is an important virulence factor which is produced and expressed on the surface of <em>Streptococcus pyogenes. </em>

This protein plays important role in the bacterial infection like adherence to epidermal keratinocytes, resistance to phagocytosis,  invasion of epithelial cells and microcolony formation.

The M-protein is a α-helical coiled structure protein which consists of the four distinct regions (A–D) in which  A-region in the N-terminal is highly variable.

Thus,  option- <em>Streptococcus pyogenes</em> is the correct answer.

What is the association between tropomyosin and troponin molecules in resting striated muscle fibers?
ryzh [129]
The correct answer is that "t<span>roponin holds the tropomyosin in place on the actin".

In excitation-contraction coupling, tropomyosin prevents the interaction between actin and myosin in resting muscles. In the event of excitation, there is release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum wherein the troponin will bind this calcium and will release tropomyosin and expose myosin enabling it to attach to actin and therefore facilitating muscle contraction.</span>
