mbrane, or lipid-anchored proteins. Regardless of their classification, these proteins all play an important role in the function and integrity of a cell. Which of the following properly describes the function of membrane proteins?
a. to allow for cell-cell communication
b. to serve as a channel for the transport of molecules between extracellular and intracellular fluid
c. to provide structural stability for the cell

Answer:a,b,c,d

Explanation:

Cell-cell interaction occurs in multicellular organisms. When two cells are in close approximation they form a tight junction which are multiprotein complexes that provide contact between neighboring cells. This tight junction permit calcium and other small molecules to pass through from one cell to another.

Transmembrane protein serves as ion channels for transport of ions between extracellular and intracellular fluid.

Integral proteins are deeply embedded in the bilayers and are attached by hydrophobic bonds. They contribute to the structural stability of the cell.

Carbohydrates are found on the cell surface bindings to proteins to form glycoprotein. This glycoprotein are excellent in providing an immune response, protection of cell and cell-cell recognition.

Answer: One type of map uses the cytogenetic location to describe a gene’s position. The cytogenetic location is based on a distinctive pattern of bands created when chromosomes are stained with certain chemicals. Another type of map uses the molecular location, a precise description of a gene's position on a chromosome. The molecular location is based on the sequence of DNA building blocks (base pairs) that make up the chromosome. Buttt I don’t know if this is the answer your looking for. But I hope this helps in a way.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Opposition

Explanation:

Opposition is the type of movement that is only for the hands. Opposition is them movement where you bring your finger/s in contact with your thumb. When you put it back to its anatomical position, which is beside the index finger (pointing finger) this is called <em>reposition.</em>

Retraction occurs in the scapula (Shoulder blades) and mandible (jaw). Dorsiflexion you see that happen in your foot. When you bring your toes closer to the shin. Supination is more on the forearm and foot, where you rotate it so your palms are facing forward (sole facing the other ankle for feet). Flexion is the movement of body parts where you bring them closer to each other at a joint (the angle between the two parts are lessened). Like when you bend your elbows to "flex" muscles.
