Answer: Most viruses can use host machinery to produce more of themselves
Explanation:
Since viruses carry out no metabolism themselves, they rely solely on the living cells of the host (organism they infect) to replicate and spread from cell to cell.
Thus, viruses do not kill the cells they infect since they need them, and use them to replicate more offsprings
Answer: Gas giants are larger, have more moons, and are less dense. They also are outer planets. Terrestrial planets are more dense, have a rocky and hard surface, and less moons sometimes no moons. They are called the inner planets.
Answer:
Either B) increased parasympathetic stimulation of the heart. OR D) Constriction of elastic arteries to maintain blood pressure. I'm leaning more towards D) constriction of elastic arteries to maintain blood pressure.
Answer:
<u>d. Transport proteins within the membrane serve as a tunnel for molecules to enter the cell.

Explanation:
Solutes are typically moved across the cell through either passive or active transport. The cells, surrounded by a bilipid layer or plasma membrane is amphiphlic- its polar, hydrophilic lipid heads face outwards, while their non-polar hydrophobic lipid tails face inwards towards each other.
While lipid-soluble molecules move across the layer easily, it is also difficult for charged and also large molecules to move across its surface, into the cell. Transmembrane channels, <u>embedded within the membrane</u>, help to maintain selective permeability as transport proteins, pores and gated channels. Simple diffusion happens as a method of passive transport in cells through plasma membranes.
The solutes travel through the plasma membrane in the process of diffusion from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration; this occurs without the use of energy. <u>Molecules moving against their concentration require active transport mechanism to cross the membrane</u>.
It would affect our environment very badly. The following reasons are why it is bad: 1)Trees are our main supply of oxygen. 2) Corn is slow at converting carbon dioxide into oxygen. 3) Many wildlife creatures (plants and animals) need that ecosystem to live.
