Why are transport proteins multipass rather than single-pass integral membrane proteins?

Biology
1 answer:
cestrela7 [59]4 years ago
7 0
Transport proteins multi-pass so that multiple alpha helices can form a hydrophilic pore that is able to diffuse small molecules. If transport proteins were single-passing, the alpha helix would not have a core with a diameter large enough to diffuse solutes.
Multi-pass membrane proteins loop in and out, while single-pass membrane proteins cross the membrane once.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The relative size of the crest height and width of offspring raised in the tank without chemical cues is lower as compared to the parent Daphnia.

Explanation:

The size of the crest of Daphnia is directly related to the chemical cues secreted by the Notonecta. If the water has Notonecta , the size of the crest of Daphnia is increases because the crest is sensitive with the release of the chemical cues of Notonecta. So if the water has no chemical cues, the size of the crest height and width of offspring is lower as compared to the parent Daphnia.

sergejj [24]

Answer: A change in allele frequencies caused by random events

Explanation :<u>Genetic drift refers to a process which occur due to sampling error from preceding generations that lead to a change in allele frequency by chance alone within a population.</u> It is a random process which  leads to large significant changes within a population over a short period of time. The rapid changes are due to increasing inbreeding coefficient s and homozygosity from the removal of alleles.

It is peculiar to a population which is synonymous with regular cycle of extinction and recolonization. Therefore, together with evolution, mutation and migration, <u>it is one of the driving mechanism of EVOLUTION.</u>

It is caused by;  

Static or recurring small population sizes,  

"Bottlenecks” form of population, that is drastic reduction in population size;

Repopulation from a small number of individual-FOUNDER EVENTS.

<u>Measurements of Genetic Drift </u>

The magnitude of genetic drift within a population depends on the effective population size for the population.This is represented as Ne.  It is a theoretical number use to quantify the number of genetically distinct individuals that contribute gametes

If you were to use an adult cell’s nucleus with intact DNA from a Tasmanian tiger to replace the nucleus of a Tasmanian devil’s
balandron [24]

Answer:

The organism would be genetically almost similar to Tasmanian tiger.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material and is responsible for heredity. The DNA present in the nucleus of an egg cell contributes genetic traits of the mother to the progeny. It imparts the progeny some of the genetic traits of the mother.

In the given experiment, DNA from the Tasmanian tiger was introduced into the egg cell of the Tasmanian devil and the transgenic egg cell was allowed to produce a new progeny. Since the implanted transgenic egg cell carried the genetic information from the Tasmanian tiger, the resultant progeny would be almost similar to a Tasmanian tiger.
