Biology
1 answer:
kumpel [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A) they help transport some substances through the membrane.

Explanation:

The membrane proteins that span the bilayer of phospholipids help in the transport of polar, large and charged substances across the membrane. The nonpolar core of the membrane does not allow these charged and polar substances to pass through. Proteins serving as channels form pores to allow movement of the specific substances.  

On the other hand, carrier transport proteins of the membrane bind to the substances present at one side of the membrane and deliver them to the opposite side.

Suppose we discovered a form of life like our own which utilized 20 amino acids, but had 6 nitrogeneous bases instead of the 4 o
mezya [45]
The minimum legth of a codon could be two. If it was only one of the 6 nitrogeneous bases in a codon, we'd only have 6 possible amino acids. If we have, though, a combination of two amino acids out of the 6 nitrogeneous bases, we would have then 36 possible combinations (6 possibilities for the first position × 6 possibilities for the second position) that would allow the existence of the 20 different amino acids.
In the human case, for example, with only 4 nitrogeneous bases, a combination of two amino acids would be insufficient (4×4=16) for the 20 amino acids.
