"Facilitative transporter of glucose" is not a role of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR).

<u>Option:</u> B

<u>Explanation:</u>

A protein and chloride pathway of membrane, in vertebrates encoded with the CFTR gene is understood as "Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)". The CFTR gene codes for an ABC-class transporter ion channel protein that conducts chloride ions through epithelial membranes of cells.

The protein helps to keep the salt and water equilibrium on many surfaces in the body, including the lung surface. When the protein doesn't work properly, chloride — a salt part — gets trapped in cells.

Energy is decreasing by 500 because some of it is turned into heat energy.

Explanation:

when an animal/creature consumes another living thing and or something that has energy it is decrease to a certain amount because some of the energy that the original animal/creature had is turned into heat energy because they use some of the energy for themselves to survive and live.

For example:

A flower is a producer because it produces energy and gets it gets eaten by a deer and some energy gets changed to heat and the other is consumed by the consumer (the deer) and so on.

Why is semi-conservative important
inn [45]
The importance of the semi-conservative model is unhealthy old and new genes cancel each other. The result new cells are disease and mutation free. ... DNA replication is semiconservative because DNA is composed of two complementary strands, each of which acts as template to construct a new strand complementary to itself.
