Surface tension allows light insects to walk on water.
The correct option is robin. Scientists usually draw survivorship curve to determine the pattern of mortality and survival in different species. The graph usually show three basic patterns, some species produce a lot of offspring but only a few survive to the stage of active reproduction, some produce a small number of offspring but a large number of them survive to adulthood while the rest of the species are intermediate and have a fairly constant rate of mortality and survival. Robin falls into this last group.
Answer:
F-actin is a double helical filament as opposed to G-actin,which is a globular protein .Each actin filament has two ends,called the plus and
the minus ends, which makes it recognizable from each other.This gives the structure a distinct polarity.
Explanation:
Actin is the most abundant protein that is found in almost all eukaryotic cells.Its a most important part cytoskeleton as its a monomeric subunits(size 42kDa) of two types of filaments i.e. microfilaments and thin filaments in cells. Actin is essentially required to maintain stability and morphogenesis of cell.It is involved in numerous significant processes such as endocytosis,cell division and migration.Actin is present in two forms:
•G-actin
•F-actin
The two forms of actin are different structurally.
G- actin is a globular shaped protein,usually present in free form(a monomer),having a tight binding site for another actin monomer.Each monomer has ATP. Upon polymerization of G-actin monomers, a polymer called F-actin filaments is form. This process is driven by hydrolysis of ATP.
