What kind of molecule passes through the lipid belayer of the cell membrane

Biology

Usually small Nonpolar molecules and further small molecules easily can pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Larger molecules, polar and ionic substances require the use of specific proteins to help with movement across the membrane.

Answer/ Explanation:

The original DNA sequence has a point mutation changing a G to a T. The resulting mRNA produced is always complementary to the DNA from which it is synthesised, so the original mRNA sequence has a T, whereas the mutated mRNA has a U. The tRNA is complementary to the mRNA, so the original has a G, and the mutated has a T.

This is a point mutation called a substitution. This does not affect the entire sequence of the protein, because the mutation is "in frame" meaning the mRNA sequence is still read in the same way by the protein producing machinery. However, it does change the 5th codon from UGC to UGU. If we look up the genetic code, we can see that both of these codons code for cysteine, so there will be no change in the amino acid sequence of the protein

Alma brought her 6-month-old son to the doctor for a well-baby visit. The doctor says that her son's weight is in the 20th perce
sveta [45]

This means that her son is small compared to other 6 month old children.

A percentile is a measure between 0 and 100 that compares children of similar age in order to know if a particular child is growing well. The higher the percentile number, the bigger the child is compared to other children of same age. If a child is in the 50th percentile for height, it means the child is in the middle of the pack.

If a cell contains 95% water and is put into a beaker with 100% water, what will happen
Kisachek [45]

Answer: The quantity of water in the beaker will reduce. The cell will increase size.

Explanation: There is difference in water concentration between the cell and the beaker, therefore water will move from the beaker into the cell causing the cell to expand and the quantity of water in the beaker to decrease. There will be movement of water molecules from an area of high water concentration (beaker) to an area of low water concentration (the cell) through a selectively permeable cell membrane. The aim of this is to create an equilibrium between the water concentration in the cell and that in the beaker.
