A. They live for only 120 days is correct. They are created in the bone marrow and destroyed in the spleen "red blood cells graveyard"

B. They have multiple Nuclei. Red blood cells don't have a nucleus but some can present structures called Jolly's bodies that are small pieces of the nucleus that they lost in the differentiation process

C. They only live for only about 20 days. No, red blood cells live for about 120 days

D. Once created in bone marrow, they circulate for our lifetime. Again, they have a limited lifetime

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer;

One can infer that membrane transport proteins are required in order for neurons to fire.

Explanation;

Transport proteins are proteins that transport substances across biological membranes. Transport proteins are found within the membrane itself, where they form a channel, or a carrying mechanism, to allow their substrate to pass from one side to the other.

-Transport proteins transport materials such as; ions such as sodium and potassium; sugars such as glucose; proteins and messenger molecules; and many more. In neurons, they  play a fundamental role in the functioning of nerve cells. These transporters, a third class of membrane transport proteins, move a wide variety of ions and molecules across cell membranes.

Jack has just returned after a walk in the woods. He finds several sticky weed seeds stuck to his jersey with their sharp hooks.
Flura [38]
The reason is to help in seed dispersal. Seed dispersal is the movement or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. Due to the fact that plants have very limited mobility they have to rely upon variety of dispersal; vectors to transport their seeds, including both abiotic and biotic factors. Seed dispersal is important because if seed are not dispersed, many germinating seedlings will grow very close to the parent plant which would result to competition between every one of the seedlings as well as the parent. The competition for essential growth factors such as light, space, water and nutrients.
