<h2>Rhizoids absorb water and nutrients from the surrounding soil. </h2>

Explanation:

Rhizoids are primitive root like structure in lower plants like bryophytes and sin fungi. Rhizoids are usually unicellular. However many plants exhibit multicellularity. Rhizoids functions as the roots in these plant,by absorbing water and nutrient from the surrounding soil. They may contain enzymes which helps in extracellular digestion in orgsnidm which have saprotrophic mode of nutrition.Rhizoids provide a little anchorage to the substratum.

<h2>Function of rhizoids</h2>

Explanation:

Rhizoids absorb water and minerals from the surrounding soil

Rhizoids are simply the root hairs on the underside of the thallus especially in some mosses and liverworts which helps in support or absorption
Rhizoids originated from a single cell and helps in absorption of water between threads in a process called capillary action;they are involved in the uptake and transport of water from the substrate in case of liverworts
Rhizoids of some species(like Chara) contain a higher concentration of mineral nutrients and take up nitrate,ammonia and phosphates from sediments
They also form mycorrhiza like association with fungi which helps in increasing the uptake of nutrients from the soil

Process of Sexual Reproduction for honey bees

zalisa [80]

Answer:

The typical story of reproduction is that males and females of an animal species do it sexually. Generally, that's what honeybees do, too. Sperm from a male drone fertilizes a queen's eggs, and she sends out a chemical signal, or pheromone, that renders worker bees, which are all female, sterile when they detect it.

Explanation:

In the Cape bee, female worker bees are able to reproduce asexually: they lay eggs that are essentially fertilized by their own DNA, which develop into new worker bees. The team sequenced the entire genomes of a sample of Cape bees and compared them with other populations of honeybees that reproduce normally

Solid tumors are clusters of cancer cells and often contain blood vessels. When molecule B binds to the wild-type Brec protein i

Agata [3.3K]

The molecule C-P phosphorylates and thus activates D, whereas Kinase D amplifies cellular signaling by phosphorylating many substrates. In this case, it is expected to observe kinase D overexpression in Brec-MUT cells.

<h3>Cancer, phosphorylation and signaling pathways</h3>

Cancer can be defined as a multifactorial disease, which is often associated with uncontrolled cell growth.

Cancer signaling may be associated with defective pathways such as, for example, a mutated kinase protein that affects normal downstream molecular cascades.

A kinase is a specific protein that acts to phosphorylate specific cellular substrates, thereby activating/deactivating a particular signaling pathway.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Helicase, topoisomerase ii /gyrase, single strand binding proteins.</h2>

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process in which DNA is replicated with the help of various enzymes and proteins..

Helicase is the enzyme which unwind the DNA strands, After unwinding, topoisomerase removes these twists. Single strand binding proteins stabilize the single strands of DNA during replication.
