What is the importance of root cap

Biology
1 answer:
dusya [7]3 years ago
8 0

The root cap is a small structure but one that serves a very important function for a plant. Protecting the root apical meristem allows for primary growth in the root, which paves the way for lengthening of the plant as well as cell specialization.

Light energy from the sun is the primary source for all living organisms. So how does the sun provide energy for all living orga
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: Heat or thermal energy coming from the sun provides energy for living organisms through heat transfer. For plants light energy is absorbed by the leaves and enters the stomata which activates the thylakoids and releases amount of electrons for chemical reactions. Through light energy plants produces glucose and releases oxygen gas as a by-product of the reaction. For this process energy is formed (ATP)

Ras is a g-protein that is activated when a growth factor attaches to egfr. its activation results in the replacement of a gdp m
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

A mutation in Ras protein which will cause hyperactivity will eventually lead to cancer.

Explanation:

Ras protein was first discovered in Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and it is a proto-oncogene product. In normal conditions, it plays an important role in cellular signalling but in case of gain of function/hyperactivity it gets converted into cellular oncogene. In several types of cancers a point mutation has been reported in Ras protein.

Just like G protein, it is also a GTPase switch protein but unlike G protein which is trimeric, it is monomeric. In the plasma membrane, it is attached with the help of lipids like prenyl or palmitoyl groups. During signal transduction pathway when it gets activated, it downstream activates MAPK pathway and causes gene expression but when it gets hyperactivated it causes over expression of genes leading to cancer.

Which letter in Figure 1 represents meiosis? Why?
SSSSS [86.1K]

The letter D in Figure 1 represents meiosis, while letter A represents mitosis. Meiosis is a reductional cell division.

Mitosis is a type of cell division where a parent cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells (in this case, diploid cells).

Meiosis is a reductional cell division where a parent cell divides twice to produce four daughter cells having half of the genetic material.

Meiosis occurs in germinal cells, while mitosis occurs in somatic (body) cells.
