Lady_Fox [76]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

20 amino acids.

Explanation:

Amino acids are the monomers that combine together to form a protein. Two main types of amino acids are non- essential amino acids and essential amino acids.

Thousands of different proteins can be made by the simple 20 amino acids present in the cell. The amino acids can combine in different ways to form all the proteins present in the body.

Thus, the correct answer is option (5).

Compared to freshwater fishes, marine fishes: drink seawater and produce a large volume of urine. do not drink seawater in an ef
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The correct answer is - tend to lose water by osmosis since their internal salt concentration is lower than that of seawater.

Explanation:

In freshwater fishes, the body of fishes has a higher salt concentration inside their body than the surrounding water, water enters through the osmosis process. Without any active regulation of this process, fishes would swell and get bigger and bigger. They have specialized cells called chloride cells in gills to take ions from water as they do not have kidneys.

In contrast, the marine fishes have a lower salt concentration in their body than surrounding water of sea or ocean and they lose water continuously and to compensate for this they need to drink water regularly.

How a change in glycoproteins affects a cell’s ability to maintain homeostasis
Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

Most of the cell surface receptors and glycoproteins. These glycoproteins have active sites that recognize specific signals, like hormones, that initiate secondary signaling pathways inside of the cell, in response to the external signal. This is how cells respond to environmental stimuli.

If a change in glycoproteins makes them unable to bind signaling molecules (like hormones) or makes them permanently bind these molecules, there will definitely be a defect in how the cell responds to external stimuli.  The cell will be, for example, be unable to respond to insulin in case of elevated blood sugar levels as is the case with diabetics.
