Frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes make up the cerebral cortex.
Answer:
E. They decrease the rate at which Ras hydrolyzes GTP.
Explanation:
Activated Ras has GTP bound to it, this propagates an intracellular signal to the nucleus where cell proliferation is induced. Thereafter proliferation is switched off by the hydrolysis of the bound GTP to GDP.
Therefore decreasing the rate of GTP hydrolysis causes Ras to remain active, ultimately leading to uncontrollable proliferation characteristic of cancer.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water in high to low concentration. It doesn’t use energy. It helps equal out the solute concentration.
Answer:
<u><em>All of the above.</em></u>
Explanation:
1. Their watertight skin minimizes moistures loss: <em>Reptiles have a reputation that they are “slimy” when we touch and hold them; however, they have dry skin, which has even fewer glands than mammals or amphibians. The main special feature of their skin is that the epidermis is heavily keratinized with a layer, which also prevents water loss.</em>
2. Amphibians must lay eggs in water or in moist soil to reduce moisture loss: <em>Because amphibian eggs don't have an amnion, the eggs would dry out if they were laid on the land, so amphibians lay their eggs in water.</em>
3. Reptile egg shells are harder than amphibians' eggs: <em>Reptile eggs are coated with a leathery or brittle coating, and the animals that hatch from them are miniature versions of the full-sized animal parent. In contrast, amphibian eggs are transparent and jelly-like. The animals that hatch from them still must go through metamorphosis.</em>

I believe they cannot start with big trees and bushes because the there is not enough nutrients in the soil, so instead pioneer species pave the way for primary succession.
