Scientists have modified a clathrin molecule so that it still assembles but forms an open-ended lattice instead of a closed sphe

rical cage. How would this clathrin molecule affect endocytosis in cells?
A. Vesicles would be larger, increasing the cargo endocytosed.
B. All movement of molecules into and out of the cell would cease.
C. Vesicles cannot form properly without a clathrin cage, thus inhibiting endocytosis.
D. Endocytosis would be un-affected, since adaptors and receptors can still interact.

Answer:

C. Vesicles cannot form properly without a clathrin cage, thus inhibiting endocytosis

Explanation:

Endocytosis is the process by which substances are brought into the cell.

Clarithrin mediated endocytosis or receptor mediated is the process where metabolites are absorbed through formation of vesicles that will contain the absorbed substances.

Clarithrin proteins are responsible for the formation of these vesicles which are closed spherical cages.

Formation of open ended lattice will inhibit endocytosis due to improperly formed vesicles.

Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down starch. why can’t the same enzyme break down cellulose?
rusak2 [61]
Enzymes are (usually) specific to the substrates they bind to. Thus, each enzyme has one and only one substrate structure they can metabolize, so even substrates with similar structures cannot be broken down by an enzyme specific to one of them.

Why do adult urochordates (tunicates) lack notochords, even though larval urochordates have them? Larvae use notochords to _____
kirza4 [7]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

A tunicate is marine invertebrate animal  which is a part of chordates. They have notochords and dorsal nerve chord. The subphylum of the organism is called as Urochordata.

The adult urochordates lack notochord but the larval stage of the urochordates have notochord. This is because it helps in swimming of the organism which is required only at the larval stage.

The adult stage of the tunicates is sessile and they do not swim so they do not require notochord.
