Answer:

The correct answer is integral membrane proteins.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is the outer membrane of the cell which is selectively permeable. The small polar molecules and hydrophobic molecules can go through the lipid bilayer, but ions and large polar molecules cannot go through. There are some Integral membrane proteins present in the plasma membrane that enable ions to pass through the plasma membrane by active or passive transport.

Thus, the correct answer is integral membrane proteins. Ions generate electrochemical gradient so they are generally used in secondary transport systems.

Thus, the correct answer is integral membrane proteins.

Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

The fossil records are beneficial in giving us. wide range of knowledge about fossils but sometimes these records are flawed, in that they are incomplete or misleading.

Many of the fossil records available are incomplete because some animals tend to decay within a short period of time due to their soft tissue. Also some are destroyed due to the movement of tectonic plates over time.

Another flaw scientists encounter is that there are no fossils which illustrate or represent the orderly transition from one organism to another. Fossils generally do not support the Darwinian theory of evolution as no evidence is found of ordered, sequential transition from simple to complex life forms as postulated.

These flaws are significant because they influence our knowledge and understanding of life forms and evolution.

xz_007 [3.2K]

The correct answer is <span>d. 62%.

Since Ellie's decision will be based 100 % on Janice's decision, the probability that both will attend the class is 62 % because that is the chance that Janice will attend the class. Since Ellie just depends on Janice, the correct answer is </span><span>d. 62%. I hope this answer helped you. </span>
