Water is not wet. Water only has the ability to get other things wet
The model demonstrating the importance of solar energy for life on Earth in which the student should make is a model of a local food web
All food chains begin by receiving the energy of the sun. This energy is captured by plants which are the producer link in the chain. Plants are able to utilize the light energy from the sun to produce food such as sugar from carbon dioxide and water.
Answer:
Mass is conserved in living systems through the processes of photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the carbon cycle. It is demonstrated in cellular respiration through the process of braking down food to provide energy and releasing carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
Answer:
Constitutive activation is the alteration of a protein or signaling pathway such that it is functional or engaged even in the absence of an upstream activating event. For example, RasD is constitutively active because it cannot bind GAP and therefore remains in the GTP-bound, active state even when cells are not stimulated by growth factor to activate a receptor tyrosine kinase.
Constitutively active Ras is cancer promoting because cells will proliferate in the absence of growth factors, and thus normal regulatory mechanisms for cell proliferation are bypassed.
(a) A mutation that resulted in Smad3 binding Smad4, entering the nucleus, and activating transcription independent of phosphorylation by the TGFβ receptor would render Smad3 constitutively active.
(b) A mutation that made MAPK active as a kinase and able to enter the nucleus without being phosphorylated by MEK would render MAPK constitutively active.
(c) A mutation that prevented NF-KB from binding to IK-B or that allowed NF-KB to enter the nucleus and regulate transcription even when bound to IK-B would render NF-KB constitutively active.
