Tasya [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer is "ligand-gated channel".

Explanation:

The action that is described in the question is an example of a "ligand-gated channel".

The ligand-gated channels are found in the muscles and they are membranes made out of ion-channel proteins which chan be controlled by certain released chemicals into the medium to open them up or closed them and allowing the sodium, potassium or calcium ions to pass through.

I hope this answer helps.

All of the following statements describe kinesin-I EXCEPT__________.
adell [148]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Kinesin -1 is the major anterograde motor which helps in the transportation along micro tubules. This is important for the proper transport of the mitochondria, Golgi derived vesicles,  endoplasmic reticulum tubulin, mRNA and intermediate filament sub units.

It moves along the micro tubules and for this task it gets energy from the adenosine triphosphate.

The heavy chain of KInesin 1 is made of globular head via short flexible neck and has a light chain as well which ends in the carboxy terminal.

Clathrin coated vesicles bud from eukaryotic plasma membrane fragments when adaptor proteins, clathrin and dynamin-GTP are added
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: Clathrin cages assemble, vesicles form but cannot be pinched of but no disassembly occurs so the vesicles remain coated in clathrin.

Explanation:

Endocytosis is a cellular mechanism that allows the introduction of extracellular material into the cell. Clathrin-coated vesicles act to incorporate different molecules that are recognized by specific proteins located in the clathrin-coated pits. Upon invagination of a portion of the plasma membrane, the material is transported to its final intracellular destination.

<u>Clathrin is a protein that forms the lining of cell membrane microcavities where various receptors are located. Once a particle is recognized by the receptors, invagination of the plasma membrane occurs, which then fuses to form an endocellular vesicle.</u> When vesicle budding occurs, the vesicle is detached from its attachment to the membrane with the help of a GTPase protein called dynamin. Then, the vesicle is freed from clathrin by the action of a type of ATP-ase called Hsp70-ATP and docks to late endosomes that are immediate precursors of lysosomes, fusing the membranes of both. The fission of the clathrin-coated vesicle is controlled by the GTPase dynamin and it has been proposed that dynamin acts by generating the necessary force to strangle the "neck" and cleave the vesicles from the membrane. So they are mainly involved in the cleavage of newly formed vesicles from the membrane of one cell compartment, their orientation, and their fusion with another compartment. Also, without the dynamin, vesicles are not freed from clathrin.

<u>In the absence of dynamin, vesicles are formed but the membrane fusion or pinching off will not occur. Then, invaginated coated pits will be found.</u>

PLEASE HELP ME I'M BEING TIMED I WILL DOUBLE THE POINT
jekas [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Honeycreepers arose from a single species that migrated to Hawaii and adapted to different niches over time.

Explanation:

All Hawaiian honeycreeper bird species share similar muscle and skeletal structures. This suggests that all Hawaiian bird species arose from a common ancestor and evolved due to different environmental conditions such as eating particular foods for particular species.

It is believed to be a single species of honeycreeper who migrated from the mainland to Hawaiin island and adapted to different niches over time by the process known as natural selection.
