Biology
1 answer:
nika2105 [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer;

-The permeability is directly proportional to lipid solubility and inversely proportional to the size of the molecule.

Explanation;

-The cell membrane’s lipid bilayer structure provides the first level of control. The phospholipids are tightly packed together, and the membrane has a hydrophobic interior. This structure causes the membrane to be selectively permeable.

-A membrane that has selective permeability allows only substances meeting certain criteria to pass through it unaided. In the case of the cell membrane, only relatively small, nonpolar materials can move through the lipid bilayer.

Being able to respond to change (irritability) is one of the necessary life functions. Which body system is mostly responsible f
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is : nervous system.

Explanation:

Irritability is one of the key aspect life which is deal with being able to response or change according to the stimuli that is occur and disturbs the homeostasis of the body which is maintaining the body environment for living.

Nervous system is deal with the irritability by sensing the stimuli in which change occur it can be physical stimuli such as temperature, light, or sound or chemical stimuli such as pH, ions, amount of required chemical or biological stimuli such microbes in body. All these stimuli are sense b the sensory neurons and then send these signals to brain or spinal cord in order t act and respond accordingly to maintain homeostasis.

Thus, the correct answer is : nervous sytem.

Which of the following statements regarding restriction enzymes is NOT true? See Section 15.1 (Page 554) . Which of the followin
irinina [24]

Answer:

Most restriction enzymes recognize sequences of 20-25 bp in length

Explanation:

Sequences of DNA that are recognized by restriction enzymes are called recognition (or restriction) sites are usually are between 4 and 8 bases long. Many of them are palindromic, which means that they are the same when you read it backwards and forwards (mirror-like).

Restriction enzymes are endonucleases, which means they cut phosphodiiester bonds within DNA. These enzymes are from prokaryotic organisms (archea and bacteria) which use them as defending mechanism against viruses. Prokaryotes protect their own DNA via methylation, performed by methyltransferase.
