Answer:
Explanation:
Proteins in the plasma membrane have several functions based on their components, location etc. For instance, if the protein transcends the entire plasma membrane it could be a transport protein, responsible for the import and export of certain molecules between the cell and the extracellular matrix (ECM). If the proteins are resting at the surface of the cell, facing the ECM, their role could be to detect components in the ECM, relaying a series of messages back to the nucleus so that the cell can ‘decide’ what it should do with this information (is it being told it should undergo apoptosis, should it begin to divide, should it migrate?). As well as this, it could be involved in the detection of foreign bodies such as pathogens. This is an extremely job for these proteins because if the cell does come in contact with a pathogen, the cell can use these proteins to engulf the pathogen and through a series of steps, present the antigen on their major histocompatibility complexes (either 1 or 2 depending on the cell type) or HLA’s for human cells. Thus it can be concluded that protein functions vary widely in the plasma membrane and due to the vast number of proteins that can be found there, it’s difficult to narrow down the exact main of functions of all these proteins put together.
Answer: Center
Explanation: The space in the center of the eyeball is filled with a clear jelly-like material called the vitreous humor. This material allows light to pass through to the retina. It also helps the eye keep its round shape.
Answer:
The cross of a heterozygous fly with a homozygous fly can be shown as follows:
r r
R Rr Rr
r rr rr
The results show that there is a 50% probability that the flies produced will have red eyes. Their genotypes will be heterozygous.
The results of the punnet square show that there will be a 50% probability that the offsprings will have brown eyes. Their genotype will be homozygous recessive.
A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which has same alleles for the gene which encodes the trait. Heterozygous means that both the alleles for the trait will be different.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Scientists observed and discovered that some traits in certain embryos disappear as the embryo develops.
