Answer:
this means the DNA will unwinds and unzips
Answer:
See the answer below.
Explanation:
<em>Let the allele for eye color be represented by A. Blue is dominant over brown eye color, hence, blue allele would be A while brown eye allele would be a.</em>
Two parents have the genotype blue/brown which is equivalent to Aa.
Aa x Aa
AA 2Aa aa
blue eyes blue eyes brown eyes
a. Different possible outcomes: AA blue eyes, Aa blue eyes, and aa brown eyes.
b. Probability of a child from the cross having brown/brown (aa) genotype = 1/4 or 25%
c. Probability that the child would have blue eye color = 3/4 or 75%
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>.
