Answer:

C) tissue.

Explanation:

The epithelium is a tissue.

Epithelial tissue is one of the four basic types of animal tissue. Formed by juxtaposed cells, among which there is little extracellular substance. Since your cells have no blood vessels, nutrients are received through the underlying connective tissue.

The lining epithelial cells are joined with each other through structures called cell junctions. The various types of junctions serve not only as adhesion sites, but eventually also as seals preventing the flow of materials through the intercellular space, and they can also offer channels for communication between adjacent cells. Therefore, from a junctional point of view, junctions can be classified as adhesion junctions, tight junctions and communication junctions (gap junctions). In many epithelia several junctions are present in a constant sequence from the apex to the cell.

The codon AUG specifies the amino acid methionine. What would the tRNA anitcodon be that recognizes this codon?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

UAC

Explanation:

This example portrays that translation, which is the second process of protein synthesis, is about to occur. Translation cannot occur without a special type of RNA called tRNA or transfer RNA.

A tRNA contains a set of three nucleotides called ANTICODON. The tRNA matches an mRNA codon with the amino acid it encodes. The tRNA initially binds to the mRNA and reads the mRNA codon using its anticodon (which is complementary to the mRNA's codon). The actual reading is done by matching the base pairs through hydrogen bonding following the base pairing rule i.e. A-U, G-C. After reading the mRNA codon using its anticodon, it then carries the specific amino acid encoded by that codon it binds to, in order to add to the growing polypeptide chain.

For example, a codon AUG (start codon that signals beginning of translation) will be read by tRNA anticodon, UAC. Since the codon AUG codes for amino acid, Methionine. The tRNA then carries Methionine via its amino acid attachment site and adds to the polypeptide chain (future protein).

Which of the following statements about gluconeogenesis in animal cells is true?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

C. THE CONVERSION OF FRUCTOSE 1,6-BISPHOSPHATE to fructose- 6- phosphate is not catalyzed by phosphofructokinase -1, the enzyme involved in glycolysis.

Explanation:

This statement is true as the enzyme involved in this step is FRUCTOSE-1,6-BISPHOSPHATASE.

Gluconeogenesis is the coversion of non-carbohydrate molecules (lactic acid, amino acids, glycerol) through the pyruvic acid into glucose in the cells.

This process takes place mainly in the liver and occurs during periods of fasting, starvation, low carbohydrate diets.

The pathway of gluconeogenesis involves eleven steps of enzymatic catalyzed reactions.

In the conversion of fructose 1,6- bisphosphate to fructose-6-phosphate is catalyzed by fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and not by phosphofructokinase -1 which is involved in glycolysis. This step is a rate-limiting step of the pathway.

The conversion of glucose-6-phospahte to glucose is not catalyzes by hexokinase but glucose -6- phosphatase.

Can someone explain how impulses r transmitted at synapses
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Synaptic impulse transmission takes place from presynaptic to postsynaptic neuron. When nerve impulse reaches presynaptic terminal, calcium ions flow in. This prompts secretory vesicles stored inside axonic terminal to burst and release neurohumor substances in synaptic cleft.
