Cell membranes do not make nutrients (or energy) for the cells. This is the function of the mitochondria by the electron transport chain, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and beta oxidation. The cell membrane is responsible in holding the cytoplasmic components of the cells. The cell membrane is also involved in substance regulation by acting as a semi-permeable membrane for simple diffusion as well as the site where carrier proteins are embedded for facilitated diffusion (not ATP requiring) and active transport (ATP requiring). The cell membrane is also involved in cell to cell recognition because receptors are also embedded in the cell membrane.

How does the number of genes in human cells compare with the numbers in other species?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

While the number of genes in an organism's DNA (red bars) varies from species to species (numbers at right), it is not always proportional to genome size (blue bars, in millions of base pairs). Note how many genes a fruit fly can squeeze out of its relatively small genome.

zlopas [31]
The correction is B.
The respiratory system is the one that is responsible for transportation of oxygen from the outside to the lungs and the reverse transportation of carbon dioxide from the body to the atmosphere. The muscular system is responsible for the contraction of muscles around the air passages during respiration. These two systems are negatively affected in asthma patients during respiration.
