Answer:

Explanation:

Miller and Uray experimented with methane, ammonia, and carbon dioxide in a laboratory condition. Then he keeps them in an experiment environment and applied high electric current to this mixture of 3 gases. After the passing of electric charges in this gas mixture, the molecules are split. After some time this results in another element such as oxygen, amino acids, and water.

Water, amino acids, and water are the essential components of life. Every living animal cell has amino acids and they need water, oxygen for their survival.  

His experiment shows life arose from non - living components. Because in this experiment he created the environment of the beginning of the earth's atmosphere. At that time no oxygen and water were there. Heavy lighting causes the splitting of the methane, ammonia gases along with co2. This creates water and oxygen and also cause heavy rainfall. This rainfall continues for several years to cool down the hot earth. Then the holes of the earth filled the forming ocean and new life arose in it.

That's why Miller and Urey's experiment shows life arose from nonliving things.

If the plasma membrane was permeable, but not selectively permeable, how would that affect the cell?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

It would most likely kill the cell.

Explanation:

If a cell's membrane is fully permeable (not semi-permeable) then substances that are harmful to the cell are more than likely to enter it at one point or another, which can pretty much end up killing it.

In short, the semi-permeable membrane is there to ensure that only the useful stuff gets in and that the bad stuff stays out.

Which shows the correct order of processes for fungi to reproduce sexually
r-ruslan [8.4K]
Sexual reproduction in the fungi consists of three sequential stages: plasmogamy, karyogamy, and meiosis. The diploid chromosomes are pulled apart into two daughter cells, each containing a single set of chromosomes (a haploid state). ... In most fungi the zygote is the only cell in the entire life cycle that is diploid.

What are the components that break down nutrients for absorption in order from simplest to more complex
balandron [24]
Digestive juices break down food into the tiniest nutrient components. Proteins are broken down to amino acids; fats are broken down to fatty acids and glycerol; and carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars for absorption of these vital nutrients. The animal diet needs carbohydrates, protein, and fat, as well as vitamins and inorganic components for nutritional balance. Digestive enzymes are enzymes that break down polymeric macromolecules into their smaller building blocks, in order to facilitate their absorption by the body.

What are the effects of a change in protein? there is 3
Ksivusya [100]
Generally, mutations result in reduced protein function or no protein function. A mutation with reduced function is called a leaky mutation because some of the wild-type function “leaks” through into the phenotype. A mutation that results in no protein function is called a null mutation
