Answer:

Tubulin

Explanation:

Tubulin is a globular protein with a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa and is found in almost all eukaryotic cells. There are 5 types of tubulin, called α-tubulin, β-tubulin, γ-tubulin, δ-tubulin and ε-tubulin, but α- and β-tubulin are by far the most common forms of tubulin. Tubulin is the subunit that makes up the microtubules that, in turn, form an integral part of the cytoskeleton with essential functions in transporting cellular components within the cell and in cell division itself.

In the case of the above question, as cells do not appear to have normal chromosomal separation, this may have been caused by problems in the formation of microtubules, so it would be better to analyze the gene responsible for tubulin.

A graph of coal reserves in the United States versus time slopes downward. This indicates that coal production could have ______
rjkz [21]
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "decreased" .
________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:
________________________________________________________
        In a graph of "coal reserves in the United States" vs. "time" ; 

→ the "time" is the "independent variable" that belongs on the "x-axis" .

→ The quantity or amount of "coal reserves in the United States" is the "dependent variable" that belongs on the "y-axis" . 

       If the graph "slopes downward" ;  this would indicate a "decrease" in the amount/quantity of "coal reserves" over "time" .  

→  As the value of "x" increases — "time" increases — and; as "x" increases, the value of "y" {the amount/quantity of "coal reserves"} decreases.  

→ This would be represented by a "downward sloping" graph;  

→  and, among the answer choices given, could indicate that coal production:
_______________________________________________________
                     →  "decreased" ;    
_______________________________________________________
→  which is:  Answer choice:  [B]:  "decreased" .

What is the minimum pH difference such that transfer of one H ion across the membrane would provide enough energy to make one mo
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The minimum difference is already the value of 1

Explanation:

When the pH is not balanced between the extracellular and intracellular environment, the cell could go into shock, that is why in the face of the minimal differences in pH between the internal or external environment, the proton pump is activated, this is how the hydrogen ion or positively charged protons cross the membrane and indirectly generate ATP molecules.
