The right answer is C.

Synovia is a viscous biological fluid located at the joints and fulfilling several functions. It limits bone friction between them, dampens shocks, provides the nutrients and dioxygen necessary for chondrocytes (cartilage cells) while eliminating their metabolic waste, and benefits from the presence of immune cells to eliminate possible body foreigners.

spayn [35]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: The preferential use of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic leaflet of membranes leads to increased:___ would be, D: All of the answers are correct.

Explanation:

There is still a lot of debate among scientists as to the exact way in which phospholipids are distributed between the two leaflets of a cell´s plasma membrane, but what they do know is that there are four kinds, and that phosphatidylinositol (a sterol) and phosphatidylethanolamine appear most commonly on the cytosolic, or cytoplasmic side of the membrane. They also believe that it is this particular arrangement which allows the cytoplasmic side of the membrane to be slightly negatively charged and this role will play a major part in a membrane´s ability to generate an action potential. Also, it is known that these negatively charged ends of the bilayer will allow certain proteins, positively charged ones, to be inserted, and connected to it, to become transporters, or mediators in action potentials and normal activities of cells. Finally, since fatty acids and cholesterol are associated with phospholipids, but have a tendency to be attracted to these particular two types, they tend to give the overall structure fluidity, but also permit  the inner leaflet to assume its particular circular shape around the cytoplasm. This is why the answer is D.

marin [14]

Answer:1. alternating

2. direct

3. reservoir

4. Solar cells

5. The sun heats up the atmosphere as Earth spins, creating areas of high and low temperature. This temperature difference causes the wind to start moving through convection, which can then drive a wind turbine to produce electricity.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is ribosomes

Explanation:

Bacteria is a prokaryote which means that it does not have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles which are present in all eukaryotic cell-like plant cell and animal cell. All three cells have some common structures like cytoplasm and cell membrane.  

Apart from the cell membrane and cytoplasm ribosomes are the structure which is present plant, animal, and bacterial cell. Ribosomes are present in all these cells because it helps in the translation process to make protein in all there models.

In bacteria, transcription and translation are coupled because the nucleus is not present in them to separate them.
