The answer is C. exocytosis.

Exocytosis is a process in which vesicles in the cell moves to the cell membrane to fuse with it. This way, the vesicles release their contents to the extracellular matrix. The purpose of exocytosis is to transport large molecules out of the cell because they are too large to pass passively through the cell membrane.

Exocytosis is the opposite process of endocytosis, in which cell engulfs molecules, such as proteins. Pinocytosis is fluid endocytosis. In exocytosis, cell transports molecules, such as proteins, out of the cell.

What are the 7 terms / groups used in Taxonomic Nomenclature?

vredina [299]

Taxonomy, or taxonomy, is originally derived from the need for scientific classification of species. It now extends to other sciences, including human sciences, information sciences and computer science. Sometimes we call it "taxonomy" to describe the result of a taxonomic activity, that is to say a classification.

The traditional classification is based on a fixed hierarchy of categories (taxon ranks), defined as follows:

Reign (or Kingdom) (there are currently six) → Division (or phylum) → class → order → family → gender → species.

Look at the data tables below. Which would most likely produce a nonlinear graph?

lora16 [44]

Table 3

A linear graph is one where there is a steady change in the value on the y-axis with a steady change in the value on the x-axis. The first table will produce a positive sloped straight line that has an increase of 5 in the value of distance with each increment in the time value.
Table 2 will produce a graph where there is a decrease of 2 in the value of distance with an increase in the value of time.
Table 4 will produce a graph where the line is horizontal; the y-value does not change with time.

Table 3 has a graph which has to move up and down to accommodate the decreasing and increasing values, so it will be non-linear.

In assembling a nucleosome, normally the …(1) histone dimers first combine to form a tetramer, which then further combines with

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

option 1

Explanation:

In assemblying the nucleosome, this reaction occurs in two main steps. the H3 and H4 are recruited first to the DNA in pairs forming the H3/H4 tetramer; meaning two of H3 and two of H4. This gives rise to the nucleosome precursor. Then after this, the dimers of both H2A/H2B are recruited to this precursor, to give rise to the octamer structure around which the DNA is wrapped.

Photosynthesis transforms blank into chemical energy by blank sugars. Cellular respiration releases the blank from food by blank

creativ13 [48]

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration, both cellular processes are important for life, however, we need to understand what happens to confirm this information....

<h3>Photosynthesis</h3>

Most life on Earth depends on photosynthesis. The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar). Herbivores then obtain this energy by eating plants, and carnivores obtain it by eating herbivores.

Inside the plant cell are small organelles called chloroplasts, which store the energy of sunlight. Within the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast is a light-absorbing pigment called chlorophyll, which is responsible for giving the plant its green color. During photosynthesis, chlorophyll absorbs energy from blue- and red-light waves, and reflects green-light waves, making the plant appear green.

<h3>Cellular respiration</h3>

Cellular respiration, the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules, diverting the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and discarding, as waste products, carbon dioxide and water.

One objective of the degradation of foodstuffs is to convert the energy contained in chemical bonds into the energy-rich compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which captures the chemical energy obtained from the breakdown of food molecules and releases it to fuel other cellular processes.

With this information, we can say that photosynthesis transforms solar energy into chemical energy through sugars. Cellular respiration releases energy from food through sugars.
