Endocytosis brings large particles ​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Explanation:

During endocytosis large cells, particles, and cell fragments moved across the plasma membrane through a process of invagination; part of the external cell membrane folds into itself and creates a small pocket that surrounds the target molecule, this breaks off from the membrane to form an intracellular vesicle.

Specific endocytosis processes, such as phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and endocytosis are regulated by receptors-they take in cells, fluids, and specific compounds respectively. During phagocytosis, cells absorb large particles in cell compartments called phagosomes, after which specifically enzyme-containing lysosomes break them down.

Whats the relationship between enzymes and sunstrates?
aleksklad [387]

Enzymes and substrates are related in two main ways because they frequently interact with each other in many biological processes.

1. Enzymes and substrates are  often specific for one another. They have shapes that can be modified to fit into each other which allows them to bind together (induced fit).

2. Together, Enzymes and substrates undergo some transformations  as they interact. They interact by forming hydrogen bonds, covalent bonds  and what is also called hydrophobic interactions.

The enzyme returns to its original shape and state after the reaction but the substrate is often modified or changed completely into a new, different product.

Mammals in Australia are called marsupials, and diverged from the placental mammals very early in mammalian evolution. Australia
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The correct answer is homologous.

Explanation:

A structure that is derived from a common ancestor is called homologous structure. So homologous structure is the characteristic of divergent evolution that means divergent evolution give rise to homologous structures.

So as the marsupials are mammals that were diverged from placental mammals very early in mammalian evolution, the membranes of skin that allow Australian sugar gliders and North American flying squirrels to glide are homologous because divergent evolution gives rise to homologous structures.

The function of these homologous structures can be the same or can be different. Therefore the correct answer is their membrane are homologous.
