Binary fission occurs in single-celled organisms only and mitosis is just one cell dividing into two (eukaroytic cells)

What specific part of the cell/structure allows the mucus secretions to be thick and viscous rather than fluid (i.e., is it a me
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The CFTR behaves like a channel for chlorine. Its dysfunction affects both the transport of this ion and other ions and the transport of water, which causes a thickening of secretions, an alteration of mucociliary transport and local defenses, facilitating bacterial colonization and promoting the release of pro-inflammatory mediators in the airway

Explanation:

CFTR is a protein expressed in the epithelial cells of the respiratory system, pancreas, bile ducts, sweat glands and genitourinary system. It is made up of a single chain made up of 1,480 amino acids. It contains 12 hydrophobic regions embedded in the lipid membrane and acts as a channel for chlorine.The highest levels of expression of the CFTR protein are found in serous cells of the submucosal glands of the proximal airway. In them, Cl- is released to the outside. In addition, there are channels for Na +, through which this ion is also secreted in the same direction. These movements cause the displacement of water and also of mucins, originating in the submucosal glands, allowing their presence on the surface of the airway. For all this to occur normally, a basolateral Na + - K + - ATPase cotransporter must function, another basolateral cotransporter formed by Na +, K + and 2 Cl-, which allows the latter to enter the cell, and an apical CFTR channel through which it exits the Cl- of the cell towards the acinar lumen. Na + leaves the cell following Cl- by a paracellular pathway accompanied by water. When CFTR malfunctions, Cl- does not exit through this channel and this implies a decrease in Na + and water in the canalicular lumen, with the consequent thickening of secretions.

What are the three general types of questions that perception helps us answer regarding our environment?
Lisa [10]

Explanation:

Because we always seek to make sense of any perceived stimulus to better understand the reality that surrounds us and act before it. Through perception we process information from the senses, with which the brain builds and tries to give meaning to those stimuli that reach it. However, each person captures, selects and organizes sensory stimuli differently and, therefore, arrives at different interpretations and responses when solving a problem, in which memory and experience also form a fundamental role. Thus, differences between perceptions help explain how people interpret the environment and why they behave differently in the same situation. For example, when we recognize a specific object, an action can be initiated, in which a motor activity is propitiated in response to that recognition, and which can be different in each person.

When a female cow with black hair is crossed with a bull with white hair, the offspring are known as blue roans because of their
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

2) codominance

Explanation:

CODOMINANCE is a non-mendelian pattern of inheritance which occurs when the alleles of a particular gene is neither dominant nor recessive over its contrasting allele, hence, they are both expressed in the resulting hybrid when they combine. The two alleles are said to be CODOMINANT.

This is the case in this question involving a gene coding for hair color in cattle. The allele for black hair is codominant with the allele for white hair, hence, they combine to form an hybrid with both colors expressed (black and white) called blue roan.

According to the attached image, the heterozygous genotype in the offspring exhibits a phenotypic expression of both traits under CODOMINANCE inheritance pattern.

Define the words gene" and chromosome" so that your parents will understand them.
Arlecino [84]

Answer: Look at explanation :)

Explanation:

Gene is a unit of DNA that is found on a chromosome, it controls the development of traits and passes down genetic information down (from parent to offspring)

Chromosomes carry genetic information and are made up of genes. The chromosomes of a cell are found in the cell nucleus.
