Explain how studying plant movement uncovers specific behaviors that may not have been attributed to plants.
dezoksy [38]

Studying plant movement uncovered some specific behaviors such as irritability in plants as plants were observed to move in response to stimulus.

<h3>What are the characteristics of living things?</h3>

Living things are things that have life in them.

Plants and animals are living things.

The characteristics of living things include:

  • movement
  • respiration
  • reproduction
  • sensitivity or irritability
  • excretion
  • growth
  • nutrition

Certain attributes of living things were not attributed to plants earlier such as sensitivity.

However, studying plant movement uncovered some specific behaviors such as irritability in plants as plants were observed to move in response to stimulus.

TACATCCATCAGTTACGC A guanine replaced the 1st Thymine in the original DNA strand above, how many amino acids would be changed as
Julli [10]

Answer:

One amino acid

Explanation:

This question is describing the occurrence of the process of mutation, which is the alteration in the genetic sequence of a gene. In this question, a DNA sequence was given as follows: TAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC. However, a SUBSTITUTION MUTATION took place in such a way that the thymine base was replaced by a guanine base to have mutated sequence: GAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC.

Since the mutation is a kind of substitution mutation, only the codon affected by that mutation will change. This DNA sequence will be transcribed into a mRNA sequence. The mRNA will be read codon by codon (a group of hree nucleotides) to produce amino acid. Since one codon will be involved, one amino acid will be affected.

This is a type of protein found in the cell membrane, which regulates the coming and going of substances into or out of the cell
natita [175]

Answer:

Gated ion-channels

Explanation:

These ion channels are protein molecules that act as a passageway which span across the cell membrane allowing the movement of ions from one side of the membrane to the other. They possess the ability to open and close in response to either chemical or mechanical signals.They possess a fluidic pore, which becomes available to ions after a conformational change in the protein structure has been activated causing the ion channel to open.  Based on the stimulus to which they respond, ion channels are divided into three groups: voltage-gated, ligand-gated and mechano-sensitive ion channels. Channels responding to electrical (voltage-dependent ion channels), mechanical, or chemical (ligand-gated ion channels) stimuli open and allow rapid ion movement into or out of the cell, and this movement creates an electrical signals.
