Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a high water concentration region through a selectively permeable membrane to a low water concentration region.
In diffusion, selectively permeable membrane is neither required nor involved while in osmosis, it is involved.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane.
Answer:
B) a signal-recognition particle that brings ribosomes to a receptor protein in the ER membrane.
Explanation:
Each synthesized protein has to be targeted to the specific location and transported to that location. There are two possible ways for that transport: post-translational transport or co-translational transport.
• Co-translational transport occurs during the process of translation, and proteins transported this way are proteins bound for organelles in the endomembrane system (such as the ER, Golgi apparatus, and lysosome), plasma membrane proteins or proteins for the exterior of the cell. They have an amino sequence called a signal peptide which sends them to ER first.
• Proteins that do not have a signal peptide stay in the cytosol so, their transport is after the translation (post-translational).
Answer:
Explanation:
The central nervous system (CNS) does not have capacity to repair itself but, the PNS or the peripheral nervous system can repair and regenerate itself. The PNS can regenerate its damaged axon only when its cell body or cyton and its neurilemma are intact. The proximal end of the cyton has growth cones. The axon grows from the cones.
