Which type of membrane protein is characterized by having a unique strand of sugar molecules attached to it?

Biology
1 answer:
3241004551 [841]3 years ago
6 0

1. The answer is; cell recognition protein

These types of proteins are categorized as a glycoprotein because they are proteins with a carbohydrate molecule attached to it. These proteins tag the cell and help the immune system to identify them so the cells are recognized and not destroyed.


2. The answer is; The nonpolar tails are repelled by water, so they position themselves in the middle of the bilayer. The polar heads are attracted to water, so they point outward.

Water is a polar molecule hence dissolves charged molecule which it can form hydrogen bonds with. Non-polar/uncharged molecule tend to be ‘water-hating’ hence form clumps when put in water and do not dissolve.  Amphipathic molecules such as phospholipids tend to form the bilipid layer with the polar heads on the outside interacting with water and the non-polar carbon chains sandwiched in between away from water.


3. As cell size increases, the surface area-to-volume ratio increases is FALSE.

As cell size decreases, the surface area-to-volume ratio increases is TRUE

As cell size decreases, the volume of the cell increases is FALSE

As cell size decreases, the volume of the cell decrease is TRUE

As cell size decreases, the surface area-to-volume ratio decreases is FALSE

As cell size decreases, the surface area-to-volume ratio increases is TRUE.


4. The answer is;  have no nucleus

have no membrane-bound organelles

Prokaryotes DNA is not surrounded by a nucleus membrane hence their DNA is not secluded from the cytoplasm as that of the eukaryotes. In addition, they lack membrane-bound organelles because they are primitive organisms. It is also significant to note that the membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotes were once-living prokaryotes organisms.

a cell is placed in a solution of 3% starch and 3% glucose. After several hours, glucose is detected outside of the cell, but st
Alex17521 [72]

Answer and Explanation:

The cell was placed in a hypertonic solution. Glucose is a monosaccharide while starch is a polysaccharide. The concentration on the outside is higher compared to that on the inside. The cells have cell membrane that is semi-permeable.

Movement of molecules is dependent on the concentation gradient. However, the size of molecules determine the diffusion rate. Small and light molecules diffuse faster than large and heavy molecules thus glucose diffused faster than starch.

The cell membrane being permeable suggested that it allows molecules of small sizes to pass but not large ones.

I’m just a little confused can someone explain ?
Airida [17]

Basically, there is a presentation of types of food and the amount of those foods over 50 years in this graph. This means the graph is showing amounts of certain foods over the time period. I'm guessing that basing off of the the previous text you're just noting a change in the breaks of birds based off of the diet available to them at certain times. The adaptations and natural selection will explain the changes because due to certain limited and available foods the diet of the birds change.

The inhibition of mitosis causes cancer? True or false?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Mitosis is closely controlled by the genes inside every cell. Sometimes this control can go wrong. If that happens in just a single cell, it can replicate itself to make new cells that are also out of control. These are cancer cells.
