Answer:
Tidal volume is the amount of air breathed in with each normal breath. The average tidal volume is 0.5 litres (500 ml). Minute ventilation is the total volume of air entering the lungs in a minute. The average minute ventilation is 6 litres per minute.
Answer:
Part A: Proteins are made from amino acid monomers. There are 20 different types of amino acids which make up all the proteins of the body. The amino acids are made up of a carbon atom which is joined to an amino group, a carboxyl group and a variant group, known as R. Nucleic acids are made up of 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases. Hence, nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.
Part B: Protiens are important molecule which carry out various functions of the body. They are involved in regulation of various body process. Some proteins are involved in the transportation of various molecules. Other type of proteins are involved in various immune functions and hence protect the body. For example, antibodies are proteins which defend the body against pathogens.
Nucleic acids are involved in the storing and expressing of genetic information. They also direct the body for protein synthesis.
Answer:
They are thick, strong and made up of thousands of tubulin which are spiral in shape.
Explanation:
In eukaryotic cells, they have microtubules which are fibres serving as tracks for cell to cell transport and regulate the shape of a cell.
Microtubules are different from other cytoskeletal filaments because they possesses a cylindrical shape with the tube having a larger diameter of 20-25 nm as compared to microfilament that have a diameter of 3-6 nm.
Microtubules are made of subunits of proteins called tubulin named alpha and beta that is not present in other cytoskeletal filaments.
Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. Eukaryotes can be single-celled or multi-celled, such as you, me, plants, fungi, and insects. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle.
