Answer:
We live in an era of unprecedented road and highway expansion — an era in which many of the world’s last tropical wildernesses, from the Amazon to Borneo to the Congo Basin, have been penetrated by roads. This surge in road building is being driven not only by national plans for infrastructure expansion, but by industrial timber, oil, gas, and mineral projects in the tropics.
Few areas are unaffected. Brazil is currently building 7,500 kilometers of new paved highways that crisscross the Amazon basin. Three major new highways are cutting across the towering Andes mountains, providing a direct link for timber and agricultural exports from the Amazon to resource-hungry Pacific Rim nations, such as China. And in the Congo basin, a recent satellite study found a burgeoning network of more than 50,000 kilometers of new logging roads. These are but a small sample of the vast number of new tropical roads, which inevitably open up previously intact tropical forests to a host of extractive and economic activities.
Explanation:
Receptors that are embedded on the cell membrane bind to chemicals outside of the cell and this binding process cause a chemical response on the inside of the cell.
These receptors that help in communication between the cell and the outside world are called cell surface receptors or sometimes transmembrane receptors.
A majority of chemical signals are water soluble thus unable to cross the fatty lipid bi-layer of the cell membrane. Their receptors, which are protein in nature therefore must span the membrane, detect their presence outside of the cell and transmit this information into the interior of the cell.
Prediction! hypothesis consists of very little evidence. kind of like a guess
The phylum Echinodermata , which contains about 6000 species, gets its name from the Greek, literally meaning "spiny skin." Many echinoderms actually do have "spiny" skin, but others do not. This phylum exists exclusively in the sea, and cannot be found on land or in fresh water.
