Lipids in a bilayer can diffuse laterally at a relatively fast rate, but "flip‑flop" from one leaflet to the other very slowly w

ithout catalysis. Three protein families, flippases (or flipases), floppases, and scramblases, catalyze the movement of lipids across the bilayer. Classify each phrase as describing flippases, floppases, or scramblases.

Answer:

Flippase, floppase and scramblases are transport protein that helps in the movement of lipid molecules between the two leaflets of the Phospholipid bilayer of the plasma membrane.

Explanation:

Flippases

They are the trans membrane protein that helps in the transport of lipid molecules from the extracellular region to the cytoplasmic region.Flippases belong to ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter protein family.

Floppases

They also act as lipid transporter which helps in the movement of lipid from cytoplasmic region to the extracellular region of the phospholipid bilayer.

Scramblases

These proteins help in the movement of lipid molecules between the two leaflet of the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane.Scramblase with its catalytic activity helps in the transport of negative charged phospholipid such as phosphotidly ethanolamine from the inner leaflet to the outer leafet and viceversa.

What is a european starlings ecological role
makkiz [27]
European Starlings have a significant impact on their environment because they congregate in such large numbers.  They probably play a role in seed dispersal because of their consumption of a wide variety of fruits.  European Starlings also control some insect populations, but since they will eat almost anything they cannot be relied upon to eat only pests.  Insects they are known to feed on include the larvae of craneflies (Tipulidae) and moths (Lepidoptera) as well as mayflies (Ephemeroptera), dragonflies and damsel flies (Odonata), grasshoppers (Orthoptera), earwigs (Dermaptera), lacewings (Neuroptera), caddis flies (Trichoptera), flies (Diptera), sawflies, ants, bees and wasps (Hymenoptera) and beetles (Coleoptera).  They will also eat small vertebrates such as lizards and frogs, as well as snails (Gastropoda) and earthworms (Annelida).  European Starlings have a particular technique of inserting their closed bill into the ground or an object and then prying the bill open, creating a small hole.  This allows them to forage efficiently in soil and among roots as well as in feed troughs and on the backs of ungulates where they search for ectoparisites.

If there is a mutation in a zygote, where is it likely to be found in the fetus?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The correct answer is C.
The zygote is a single fertilized egg cell that the embryo develops from.
This one cell possesses one copy of DNA that is going to be passed to all other cells in the embryo because all other cells of the embryo develop through mitotic divisions of the zygote.
Therefore, if a mutation happens in the zygote DNA, all of the cells in the embryo are going to have it as well.
