Endocytosis and exocytosis are similar in that they are both forms of cell transport. They differ because in endocytosis, a cell transports molecules into a cell (think: endo - in), and in exocytosis, the cell's molecules are transported by being expelled.
Answer:
Ginning
Ginning: The cotton picked up from the plants has seeds in it. The process of removing cotton seeds from pods is called ginning. Ginning was traditionally done by hand. Now-a-days, machines are used in ginning.
Answer:
Insulin stimulates the liver to store glucose in the form of glycogen. A large fraction of glucose absorbed from the small intestine is immediately taken up by hepatocytes, which convert it into the storage polymer glycogen. Insulin has several effects in liver which stimulate glycogen synthesis.
Explanation:
Answer: Very unlikely
Explanation:
Generally, point mutation can be easily reversed by another point mutation, so
before any changes occur in the amino acid sequence, it would have been corrected.
However, when point mutation occurs within the protein coding region of a gene it may results in the change of a single nucleotide to cause the substitution of a different amino acid (which renders the protein non-functional) as in the case of sickle-cell disease.
And this kind of point mutation is specifically called Missense mutation.
Above all, because point mutation is easily reversible, it is very unlikely to change the amino acid sequence of a protein
