Answer:

1. break down of food into energy => oxygen

2. absorb x-rays in bones  => calcium

3. cell membrane function  => sodium

4. all organic compounds  => carbon

Explanation:

Oxygen in an element which is required during cellular respiration which in turn generates energy in the form of ATP. Aerobic respiration is not possible in the absence of oxygen.

Calcium is an element which is abundantly present in bones and has great tendency to absorb x rays. It is because of calcium that our bones appear white when they are exposed to x rays.

Sodium ion is present in cells and play a very important role in maintaining cell membrane potential with the help of sodium potassium pump.

Carbon is an important element because it is an important constituent of all organic compounds. All organic compounds are chemically hydrocarbons i.e. compounds having short or long chains of carbon and hydrogen.

This situation will produce a low birth rate, and likely decrease in individuals. It is a K-selected species.

<h3>K selected species</h3>

K-selected species are species in which the populations fluctuate in values near to the carrying capacity.

These species (K-selected) can be characterized by having long gestation periods, slow maturation and long life spans.

Occasional breeding is also a characteristic of K-selected species.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Kinase-connected receptors or receptor tyro-sine kinases react for the most part to protein and chemical go between. A solitary trans membrane helix interfaces the extracellular restricting area to the intra-cellular space. e.g. insulin, development factors. The official of the ligand triggers the commencement of a few succession of occasions related with phosphorylation of proteins, this is called protein kinase course.  

For instance, the official of development hormone to the receptor in the plasma layer causes dimerization (by the actuation of Janus kinase 2, JAK2) of the receptor (conformation change) that bring about auto-phosphorylation of tyro-sine buildups. The official of SH2-space (src homology) protein (Grb-2) to the phosphorylated tyro-sine buildups invigorates cell development through a course of protein phosphorylation.  

a). RTKs are the trans-membrane receptors, which have a ligand restricting site on the extracellular area and tyro-sine authoritative on the intra-cellular space. In the event that it comes up short on the extracellular area, the ligand can't tie to the receptor site, so no cell reaction happens.  

b). On the off chance that it does not have the intra-cellular space, the ligand can tie to the receptor site, the receptor can't impart signs tot eh intra-cellular area because of the absence of intra-cellular space.
