Answer:

Phospholipid bilayer and carbohydrates.

Explanation:

Phospholipids form a double layer that protects the cell from the outside, in this layer the heads of the phospholipids, which are hydrophilic, are orientated towards the inside and the outside of the cell, and the tails of the two layers, which are hydrophobic, are in contact with each other. This bilayer allows the passage of certain substances due to its polarity, the elements that are too big, are ions, or that are hydrophilic have especial channels made of proteins that allow the passage of these kinds of elements

The other component that can affect the permeability is carbohydrates. These, when they attach to lipids and proteins, form a layer around the cell that allows the passage of certain substances, allows the recognition of the cells that are from the body, and the ones that are foreign so that there can be communication between cells.

The four stages of translation, initiation, elongation, and termination __________. The four stages of translation, initiation,
Helga [31]

Answer:

All require at least one protein cofactor.

Explanation:

Translation is the process of the formation of the proteins from the different RNA molecules, enzymes and the cofactors. The translation process involves the movement of ribosomes over mRNA.

The three important process of translation are initiation, elongation and termination. All these steps require different enzymes and protein cofactors. The initiation requires the initiation cofactors like eIF, elongation require additional cofactors and same with the termination of translation.

I have a very important question today. NEED ANSWERS QUICK... FAMILY MEMBER NEEDS THIS ANSWER.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A very small number of bone cancers (especially osteosarcomas) appear to be hereditary and are caused by defects (mutations) in certain genes. Retinoblastoma is a rare eye cancer in children that can be hereditary. The inherited form of retinoblastoma is caused by a mutation (abnormal copy) of the RB1 gene. Those with this mutation also have an increased risk of developing bone or soft tissue sarcomas. Also, if radiation therapy is used to treat the retinoblastoma, the risk of osteosarcoma in the bones around the eye is even higher. Finally, there are families with several members who have developed osteosarcoma without inherited changes in any of the known genes. The gene defects that may cause cancers in these families haven’t been discovered yet.

They will most likely survive becuase stage one of bone cancer is the most treatable stage.
