In contrast to growing microtubules, shrinking microtubules ............. Group of answer choices have strong lateral interactio
Otrada [13]

Answer:

have curved protofilaments at their plus ends

Explanation:

Microtubules are polymers of tubulin proteins that function as the cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells. Microtubules are dynamic structures that can grow and shrink at a rapid rate. During this process, tubulin subunits can associate and dissociate at the plus end of the protofilament. Tubulin subunits bind to two GTP molecules, one of which is hydrolyzed to GDP after assembly. When microtubules are unstable, protofilaments curl outwards because GDP-bound tubulin has a weak affinity (thereby curving it) and disassemble. The dynamic stability of microtubules is regulated by a feedback loop: when microtubules shrink, free tubulin concentration increases and microtubules start to grow. As microtubules grow, free tubulin concentration decreases and the rate of GTP-tubulin addition also decreases.

9. Because the sun heats sections of the Earth more or less, and hot
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

This shows the interaction between the earth and sun.

Explanation:

  • There is a variation in the amount of heat that reaches the different latitudes as the interaction between the sun and earth which firms different angles of incidence on the surface.  
  • The rays of the sun are more concentrated in mid latitudes that is the tropics and are slanting towards the poles this due the tilt in axis of earth.  
  • This variation lads the warm air to rise and reach the poles and similar the cold polar air reaches the tropics and develops a cycle of convective cells.  This leads to a latitudinal balance in temperatures.

Only green organisms have chloroplasts, so do green frogs and toads have chloroplasts??
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Chlorophyll is a cell that comes from plants not animals.

Explanation:

Chlorophyll is the part of chloroplast and is the light absorbing pigments which provide green color to the plants, but chloroplast traps the solar energy, which is the site of photosynthesis and other chemical reactions and works as the ‘powerhouse of the cell’ like mitochondria.

In easy steps describe protein synthesis
Goryan [66]
<span>The synthesis of proteins takes two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription takes the information encoded in DNA and encodes it into mRNA, which heads out of the cell's nucleus and into the cytoplasm. During translation, the mRNA works with a ribosome and tRNA to synthesize proteins.</span>
