I believe that the most logical  explanation for this is that the right primary bronchus is wider than the left one (and the right lung is larger than the left lung), therefore the right lung receives slightly more carcinogenic cigarette smoke with each puff. In lung cancer. the cancer cells usually arise from the epithelium lining of large bronchus.

Which of these methods that aids in the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane requires the use of energy which is
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

D. Active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is the method that uses the ATP's energy to move ions and molecules from one side to the other of the membrane. The elements move from a place of lower concentration to one of a higher concentration. They move against their concentration gradient, which is why they need the energy to do it. There are two types of active transport, primary and secondary.

The primary active transport is ion pumps that hydrolyze ATP using one of the phosphates of the ATP to change the pump's shape and move the elements against their concentration gradient. It uses the ATP's energy directly.

The secondary active transport does not use ATP directly. It uses the electrochemical gradient that the primary transport had created when hydrolyzing ATP to transport the ions and molecules.

What is the molecule in this image?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Protein.

Explanation:

In the image above, we see a molecule that is made up of several amino acids. The molecule that is made up of amino acids is protein.

Proteins are the most abundant organic macromolecules in cells, fundamental to cell structure and function. They are found in all cell types and viruses.

They are formed by amino acids linked together and joined by peptide bonds, as shown in the image above.

Of extremely high molecular weight, proteins are composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen, practically all of them have sulfur. Elements such as iron, zinc and copper may also be present.

All proteins are made up of a set of 20 amino acids, arranged in varying specific sequences.

Why was it important for Miller and Urey to sterilized the apparatus to kill any bacteria in it?
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Having bacteria would produce organic molecules and defeat the whole purpose of the experiment which is to make organic molecules from inorganic molecules. The experiment was supposed to demonstrate the formation of the first organic molecules that initiated life on primordial earth. It is believed that lightning powered the formation of the first simple amino acids, like glycine, from the primordial atmosphere which was mainly composed of carbon dioxide and methane.
