Biology

The primary function of our heart is pumping the blood throughout our body. The circulatory system plays a crucial role in providing the body with the oxygen needed by cells.  Oxygen gets from the lungs to the body's cells by attaching to hemoglobin in the red blood cells, which are carried around the body in blood vessels along with blood. Oxygen diffuses across capillary cell membranes into cells, where it is taken into the mitochondria and used as a hydrogen acceptor during the production of ATP to produce water.

How are the nature of genes expressed
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Genes encode proteins and proteins dictate cell function. Therefore, the thousands of genes expressed in a particular cell determine what that cell can do. Moreover, each step in the flow of information from DNA to RNA to protein provides the cell with a potential control point for self-regulating its functions by adjusting the amount and type of proteins it manufactures.
At any given time, the amount of a particular protein in a cell reflects the balance between that protein's synthetic and degradative biochemical pathways. On the synthetic side of this balance, recall that protein production starts at transcription (DNA to RNA) and continues with translation (RNA to protein). Thus, control of these processes plays a critical role in determining what proteins are present in a cell and in what amounts. In addition, the way in which a cell processes its RNA transcripts and newly made proteins also greatly influences protein levels.
