Mammalian eyes sense light because the photoreceptor cells have molecules called opsins, which change structure when exposed to

light. Which of the following plant molecules would be analogous to mammalian opsins in their light-sensing ability?
a. Pfr and phytochromeb. cytokinins and phototropinsc. auxin and Pfrd. auxin and phytochrome

<u>Answer:</u>

Pfr and phytochrome  would be analogous to mammalian opsins in their light-sensing ability.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Phytochromes are proteins which are 'sensitive to light', and are able to  detect light sources on the plant body.
  • These form an integral part of the leaves of a plant body.  
  • These proteins are made up of two forms: Pf and Pfr. Pf exists in an inactive form of phytochrome which activates in the presence of light to form Pfr which is an active form.
  • This Pfr induces a cellular response in the plant. Similar to the opsins in Mamalian eyes, these also change in structure when exposed to light.
  • Hence, Pfr and phytochrome are the molecules which can be analogous to 'mammalian opsins' in their 'light-sensing ability'.

You observe a small, nonpolar molecule near a membrane. how would this molecule likely transport across the membrane? you observ
yaroslaw [1]
It will transported across plasma membrane by simple diffusion. simple diffusion refers to a process by which molecules will pass across plasma membrane without the aid of channels located on the surface of the membrane. since the molecule identified was polar once it enter in hydrophobic region of the membrane it will not stick since this region is non-polar and therefore it will move easily across that region.

Which of the following is an example of an environmental variation?
Lera25 [3.4K]
I believe the example of an environmental variation in the above question is, A. Marge dyes her hair blue. Variation represents any difference between cells, individual organisms, or groups of organisms of any species caused by either genetic differences or by the effect of environmental factors. Environmental variation is the ability of an organism to alter its phenotype depending on environmental conditions.
