A researcher is using a modified version of FRAP. She has devised a technique that allows her to label all the peripheral membra

ne proteins with a fluorescent tag, and has bleached a specific area of the cell membrane. After 24 hours, she notices that fluorescence has returned to the bleached area. What can she deduce from this experiment?A. Peripheral membrane proteins are akin to integral membrane proteins.B. Peripheral membrane proteins may not be permanently associated with the cell membrane.C. Peripheral membrane proteins—like transmembrane proteins—are located within the cell membrane.D. Peripheral membrane proteins can move freely within the cell membrane.E. Peripheral membrane proteins can both move freely within the cell membrane and are akin to integral membrane proteins

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

FRAP or Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching refers to a method of finding the kinetics of diffusion in living cells, generally with the assistance of fluorescence microscopy. The method comprises the labeling of a particular cell constituent with a fluorescent molecule, imaging that cell, photobleach a small section of the cell, then image the recovery of fluorescence with time.  

In the given question, as the fluorescence has recovered back to the bleached region. The scientist can come to the conclusion that the membrane of the cell and the peripheral membrane proteins do not always belong together.

Why do lipophilic hormones require carrier proteins while being transported in the blood?
valina [46]

Lipophilic hormones, intuitive as the name suggests, tend to dissolve well in lipids/fats than they do in water. Therefore lipophilic hormone does not dissolve well in blood plasma which would affect their diffusion.  The carrier proteins are mainly the serum albumins.

What is directly related to the function of a cell?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Cells have many structures inside of them called organelles. These organelles are like the organs in a human and they help the cell stay alive. Each organelle has it's own specific function to help the cell survive. The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell directs the cell's activities and stores DNA.

How to write 778,000,000 in scientific notation
Anestetic [448]

To answer the question what is 77800000 in scientific notation let’s recall how to convert 77800000 to scientific notation as detailed on our home page.

When you split the number 77800000 into a coefficient and a power of 10 you do get 77800000 in exponential form, but there is an indefinite number of possibilities.

As you probably want 77800000 in normalized scientific notation, the coefficient or significand of 77800000 in scientific notation must be in the interval [1,10[.

As there are many ways to express 77800000 in scientific notation, in this post we mean 77800000 in normalized scientific notation, unless stated otherwise. Therefore:

77800000 in scientific notation = 7.78 × 107.
