Explanation:

-the specific binding of a region of the protein to solutes or a substrate

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers or function as receptors.

These include receptor proteins that bind specifically to molecules called lingands; some also use channels which respond to chemical signals by modifying solute-specific regions that aid in regulating ion exchange, through the hydrophobic layer of the plasma membrane.

Trees use narrow tubes to transport water upward. Which property of water allows the water to rise in these narrow tubes?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

C. Cohesion of molecules

Explanation:

Cohesion is the interaction of molecules of the same substance together. By the force of cohesion if two drops of water come together they form one. Water has high rates of cohesion due to hydrogen bonds.  

This phenomenon also called surface tension and is what allows small insects to stand on water.

Cohesion along with adhesion of water to the walls of the narrow tube generate what is called capillarity. This allows liquids to ascend inside the narrow tubes. As long as the cohesion is less than the adhesion, the liquid will rise until both forces are equal.

What part of a tree conducts electricity when hit by lightning?​
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

In most trees, the area just under the bark layer contains moisture in the form of sap and water. And since water is a better electrical conductor than wood, lightning striking a tree tends to travel just underneath the bark.
