Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease in humans in which the CFTR protein, which functions as a chloride ion channel, is missing

or nonfunctional in cell membranes. The CFTR protein belongs to what category of membrane proteins

Answer:

ABC transporter protein

Explanation:

ABC transporter protein refers to the ATP binding cassette protein which utilizes the AT energy to transport the substrates from one side to another side. The ABC proteins are one of the oldest proteins known in the organisms.

The CFTR protein which acts as a chloride channel in the membrane which transports the chloride ions across the membrane utilizes the ATP energy in the transport.

Thus, ABC transporter protein is correct

3)What are some examples of specialized cells
finlep [7]

Answer:

3 Neurons are the specialized cells responsible for allowing all the basic body functions to take place correctly as all the necessary communication happens through them. Muscle cells or myocyte cells are specialized in making all movement possible. These cells have a cylindrical shape that allows them to contract.

Explanation:

4 Each cell must be able to perform as a part of a living organism. Cell specialization is required for cells to perform as a part of a whole living thing. Different cells do different jobs.

Advantage amoeba has over a cell of a lizard in relations to their levels of organism
nignag [31]

Amoebas are single-celled organisms, which means that they are composed of just one cell. Each amoeba is a cell capable of performing all living functions by itself. They can reproduce asexually. They are protozoans with no fixed shape. Most have no hard parts and look like blobs of jelly.

Brain, spinal cord, nerves

The brain controls thought, behavior, emotion, memory, and basic life functions. The brain is also the origin of control over body movement. The spinal cord connects the peripheral nervous system (PNS) to the brain; nerve impulses reaching the spinal cord through sensory neurons are transmitted up into the brain. Nerves primarily involve control and coordination of all parts of the body.

The nervous system interacts with every other organ system. For example the hypothalamus in the brain controls the pituitary gland and tells it when to produce hormones, this shows that the nervous system interacts with the endocrine system.

Hope this helps :)

The destructive force of waves is not felt while they are out at sea, in the open ocean, but it is
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The destructive force of the wave is not felt while they are out at the sea but it is felt when they approach the shore.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When the waves are out in the ocean they are in deeper waters. Once they move towards the shore they approach shallow waters. This movement causes shoaling of the waves by which its amplitude increases.

When the wave reaches the shore its leading edge gets slowed down by coming in contact with the beach floor but its trailing edge which is still in deep water still moves rapidly. The wave thus gets compressed and its wavelength decreases. The amplitude of the wave then increases rapidly making the wave destructive.
