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.

Plants use glucose to synthesize cellulose. Which statement accurately describes this process?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Sugar, which is a product of the photosynthetic process of green plants can be converted to glucose (a simple carbohydrate). Enormous amount of these glucose molecules can be linked together to form a complex carbohydrate called cellulose, which is a polysaccharide because it is made up of a long chain of glucose molecules. The cellulose is ultimately used to build the cell wall of plants.

Anabolism is the production of a complex molecule by a living organism from a much simpler one. Since, cellulose is produced by the building up of glucose molecules, the process can therefore, said to be anabolic

Choose the best experimental design to test the question “Does the gender of mice affect the time it takes to learn mazes?”
FrozenT [24]
In making an experiment their are two types of variable that should be consider, one is the dependent variable and the other one is the independent variables. I the question that dependent variable would be the result or the effect of the gender of mice and the independent is the ways in determining it. So the variables should be fair if you want your result to have no bias. Thus the answer would be letter B. because it has the same variables but different in gender
