Answer:

rough-skinned newts

Explanation:

The rough-skinned salamander, scientific name (Taricha granulosa) is a North American salamander known for the <u>strong toxin that exudes through its skin strong enough to kill an adult human</u>. Adults stay in ponds and lakes all summer and migrate back to the land in the fall, when the rain begins.

Its appearance is that of a rounded snout salamander, its color ranges from light brown to olive or brown-black at the top, with the bottom, including that of the head, legs and tail, with a yellowish orange contrasts with the brown top.

The diet consists mainly of a variety of invertebrates but also includes salanmandras and frogs, eggs and larvae and even small fish.

How would larger substances like proteins get into or out of the cell membrane?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

It is possible for large molecules to join a cell by a method called endocytosis, where a small piece of the cell membrane surrounds the particle and is brought into the cell. If the particle is solid, endocytosis is also dubbed phagocytosis. If fluid droplets are taken in, the process is called pinocytosis.

kolezko [41]

Complete question:

¿Cual de los siguientes solutos que pueden estar presentes en el liquido extracelular es transportado de acuerdo al modelo de mecanismo propuesto en la ilustracion?

A) Etanol.

B) Calcio.

C) Glucosa.

D) Estrógeno.

E) Oxígeno.

<em>Nota: La ilustración se encuentra como un archivo adjunto.</em>

Answer:

Ión Calcio y Estrógeno son transportados por proteinas canal a traves de la membrana.      

Explanation:

Durante el paso de sustancias al interior o exterior de la celula ocurren dos tipos de transportes. Transporte activo y pasivo. El primero requiere de energia ya que se produce en contra de un gradiente electroquímico. El segundo, por otra parte, no requiere de energía ya que sucede a favor del gradiente electroquimico.

  • El transporte activo es mediado por proteinas transportadoras que actúan como bombas transportadoras.
  • El transporte pasivo puede ocurrir por
  1. difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica (sin ningunaproteina que medie su paso),
  2. difusión facilitada a traves de proteinas canales (estas proteinas tienen forma de poro hidrofílico y permiten el paso de sustancias de un lado al otro de la membrana celular sin sufrir modificaciones. Permiten el pasaje de iones actuando como canales ionicos y de hormonas o neurotransmisores),  
  3. o difusión facilitada a través de proteinas transportadoras o carriers (estas proteinas son altamente selectivas y sufren un cambio temporal en su conformación al hacer pasar una sustancia de un lado al otro de la membrana plasmatica).    

<em>La ilustración adjuntada muestra un ejemplo de </em><em>proteina de canal</em><em> facilitando el transporte de distintas sustancias.</em>

A) Etanol.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica.    

B) Ion Calcio, Ca²⁺.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina canal.

C) Glucosa.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina transportadora o carrier.

D) Estrógeno.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina canal.

E) Oxígeno. Transporte pasivo. Difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica.
