If ice did not float, the world would be a hot mess. Ice reflects lots of sunlight, so if it was at the bottom, our world would be significantly hotter. Additionally, plants grow at the bottom, so if they were trapped in ice, the water would run out of oxygen and everything would die. Bottom feeders would not exist, because they would be frozen. Also, the ice would just like on, because the water above prevents it from melting entirely, leading to all of our bodies of water eventually freezing.

Introduced species can threaten biodiversity because they _______
djverab [1.8K]
<span>The answer is because <u>they compete with native species for resources within a specific niche.
</u>
The new species introduced in an area where it has never been before is known as introduced species. The introduced species usually has no natural enemies (predators) so it can spread in the new area. However, as it spreads more and more, it will use resources of the native species. So, the native species must compete in order to survive. This way, they not only treat the native species but the local biodiversity. This could cause the extinction of many native species and not only those the introduced species compete directly.</span>

Proteins destined for the following locations are sorted in the trans-Golgi:
taurus [48]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Golgi apparatus is an organelle in eukaryotic cells that stores and modifies (might include addition of sugar groups) proteins and lipids for certain functions and prepare them for transport to other parts of the cell.

In the Endoplasmic reticulum, proteins fold into into their correct shape. Some of them are transported to the Golgi apparatus in membrane vesicles. Some proteins need to do their jobs in the Golgi (they are said to be Golgi-resident). They are transported from the golgi appratus to their final destinations through a secretory pathway. It involves sorting proteins into different kinds of transport vesicles, which emanate from the trans Golgi network and deliver their contents to the appropriate cellular locations.

Proteins that are membrane embedded are conveyed to the plasma membrane (integral membrane proteins) by constitutive secretion. Proteins can divert from constitutive secretion pathway and be targeted towards other destinations such as lysosomes (as lysosomal proteins) and regulated secretion from cells (to the cell exterior).
