Cells can make proteins that need to be transported out of the cell and moved to another part of the body. Cells also make carbo

n dioxide as a waste product of cellular respiration. Proteins are large molecules; carbon dioxide is a small molecule. Which best describes how the proteins and carbon dioxide are going to exit the cell? The proteins will be transported through endocytosis; the carbon dioxide will be transported by active transport. The proteins will be transported through exocytosis; the carbon dioxide will diffuse through the membrane. The proteins will be transported by active transport; the carbon dioxide will be transported by osmosis. The proteins will be transported by facilitated diffusion; the carbon dioxide will be transported by exocytosis.

Answer:

The proteins will be transported through exocytosis; the carbon dioxide will diffuse through the membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the passive transport of substances down their concentration gradient. The process moves the substances from the region of higher concentration to that of lower concentration. CO2 is a small molecule and does not have any charge. Small, uncharged molecules can diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Therefore, CO2 can exit a cell by simple diffusion.

On the other hand, proteins are too large to be transported by diffusion across the cell membrane. The proteins are transported by exocytosis. During exocytosis of proteins, membrane-bound vesicles are formed inside the cell. These vesicles carry proteins in them and are called secretory vesicles. The membrane of the vesicles fuse with the cell membrane of cells and transport the proteins outside the cell.

Anastasy [175]

2 geological features of Florida state making it fragile is the Everglades and its bio-diverse nature.

Explanation:

The Florida state is one of three Everglades in the world to be marked as such due to its tendency of being in drought condition all the time due its draining capacity and location in its southernmost parts.

The other environmental condition which the state faces, is the bio-diverse nature of the state. It has endangered species population of cougar. It has been marked as the protected area for the panther species. Alligators too have been listed in the state for the endangered kind. Rest fills up the circuity of the state.

In an asexual species, a beneficial allele and a deleterious allele are in linkage disequilibrium. The selection pressure for th
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

selective interference

 

Explanation:

Natural selection acts on genes that are inherited together, which is the case for species of asexual reproduction (where genes are inherited together by clonal offspring).  In asexual species, linkage disequilibrium (i.e., non-random association of the alleles of different <em>loci</em>), can be understood in a similar mode in terms of population allele frequencies. Selective interference underlies the association between beneficial mutations and surrounding sites which are subject to deleterious mutations. It has been shown that asexual species adapt at a slower rate than species of sexual reproduction. In sexual species, selective interference could be bypassed through the mechanism of recombination during meiosis (although there is not conclusive evidence of this). In asexual species, different deleterious and beneficial mutations are generally fixed, whereas beneficial mutations are generally spread and fixed in species of sexual reproduction.

At what temperature does sea ice form in the polar oceans? A. 0°C B. -0.5°C C. -1.9°C D. -2.4°C E. -32°C
goblinko [34]

The correct answer is - C. -1.9 C degrees.

The sea ice in the polar oceans needs little lower temperatures to start forming than what it would need if it was't forming on a saline water. The freshwater starts freezing as the temperature goes bellow 0 C degrees, but that is not the case with the saline water. The saline water, because of the salt that prevents the freezing to a certain point, needs temperature of -1.9 C degrees to start freezing. Once this temperature is reached, the salt can not prevent the freezing anymore, so the water on the polar oceans starts to freeze.
