A certain type of specialized cell contains an unusually large amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Biology

LekaFEV [45]3 years ago

Answer:

C) The production and secretion of proteins.

Explanation:

In the human body, many cells generally possess regions with low levels of either rough or smooth endoplasmic reticulum. However, many specialized cells can possess large amounts of these regions.

If we analyze the functions of both organelles we can determine why some cells have a higher or unusual larger amount of each. For instance, the main function of the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is the translation and folding of proteins. Therefore, specialized cells that synthesize or produce large amounts of enzymes (proteins), e.g. pancreatic secretory cells, have an expanded amount of ribosomes for protein translation and a higher amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum to fold the proteins.

Naily [24]

Answer: The correct answer is A) A+C=G+T

According to Watson and Crick base pairing-

In a double stranded DNA molecule, Adenine pairs with Thymine and Guanine pairs with Cytosine. This means that number of Adenine in one strand is equal to the number of thymine in the complementary DNA strand. Similarly, the number of Cytosine in one strand is equal to the number of Guanine in the complementary strand.

Thus, the total number of Adenine and Cytosine in one strand becomes equal to the total number of Guanine and Thymine in the complementary strand.

This can be mathematically written as- A+C = G+T

Thus, option A) is the right answer.

Need help ASAP:( What is the relationship among evolutionary mechanisms and genetic diversity?
marishachu [46]

Answer:Evolution and diversity result from the interactions between organisms and their environments and the consequences of these interactions over long periods of time. Organisms continually adapt to their environments, and the diversity of environments that exists promotes a diversity of organisms adapted to them.

How does the ductus arteriosus improve the efficiency of fetal circulation?
Bogdan [553]
The ductus arteriousus is a blood vessel that connects the pulmonary artery to the descending aorta. Otherwise known as the ductus Botalli, this structure pumps blood into the fetus' non-functioning lungs from the right ventricle. This blood vessel will close at birth and becomes the ligamentum arteriousum.
