What is the function of the;
MakcuM [25]
Cell membrane: Scattered in the lipid bilayer are cholesterol molecules, which help to keep the membrane fluid consistent. Membrane proteins are important for transporting substances across the cell membrane. They can also function as enzymes or receptors. On the extracellular fluid side of a cell membrane, you find carbohydrates.

Cytoplasm: Function of Cytoplasm. The jelly-like fluid that fills a cell is called cytoplasm. It is made up of mostly water and salt. Cytoplasm is present within the cell membrane of all cell types and contains all organelles and cell parts.

Nucleus: Function of the Nucleus. The nucleus is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Inside its fully-enclosed nuclear membrane, it contains the majority of the cell's genetic material. This material is organized as DNA molecules, along with a variety of proteins, to form chromosomes.

Cell wall: The cell wall is the protective, semi-permeable outer layer of a plant cell. A major function of the cell wall is to give the cell strength and structure, and to filter molecules that pass in and out of the cell.

Sickle-cell anemia is an example of codominance. What implications does this have for people with one or two copies of the sickl
pogonyaev

Answer: B - People with two copies of the mutated gene have sickle-cell anemia. People with one copy of the mutated gene have both healthy and misshapen red blood cells and are carriers of the disease.

Explanation:

Co-dominance is when both the alleles of a gene in a heterozygote show. In the case of sickle cell anemia (since it is a co-dominant trait) even if the person only has one sickle cell allele, symptoms of sickle cell will still show up in that person. That's why the person in this example has both misshapen and healthy red blood cells.

Question 7
azamat

Answer:

A string is placed under a solution and a crystal grows on the string because the solution is supersaturated.

Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option B.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is defined as a solution in which there is no more space for the solute to be added. All the words in the solution is been filled with the solute which is been added before and mixed well to fill up all the pores. Supersaturated solution is defined as a solution which has a greater number of solute than it was being capable of holding.

As it is clear from the name supersaturated which means more than saturation. And when string is placed under this solution there are some crystal which grows on the strings because of the solute saturation which is being attached to the string.
