Answer:

hypotonic

Explanation:

Ciliates are heterotrophic organisms that lack cell wall and use numerous small cilia for locomotion. They have an outer tough membrane called as pellicle.

There are around 8000 species of ciliates and most of them occur in freshwater. The excess water from outside continuously moves inside the ciliates via osmosis and makes them hypotonic compared to outside solution. This excess water is removed actively via contractile vacuoles. Central ring of the vacuole collects water and actively transports it outside.

butalik [34]

Answer:

2) 100

Explanation:

  • Every 3 nucleotides in an mRNA specifies the addition of one amino acid in a protein.
  • Each three-letter "word" which is the combination of nucleotides is called a codon.
  • Therefore, amino acids are coded by a series of three-letter "words" - a 300 nucleotide mRNA will code for a 100 amino acid protein.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer: B) proteins in the membrane act like gates to control entrance and exit of molecules.

Explanation: Plasma membrane is composed of phospholipids bilayer in which the hydrophobic regions of the phospholipids face each other to form the core of the bilayer. Proteins are embedded in the bilayer through an interaction between the amino acid side chains and the nonpolar acyl chains of the phospholipids. The embedded membrane proteins form channels for passage of ions and other molecules. Each membrane protein is selected for one or more ions or molecules that passes through it. The membrane is said to be semipermeable because it allows the passage of some molecules and excludes the passage of others.

What happens before RNA polymerase begins to work
Kipish [7]
Answer:

D. Nucleic acids attach to the bases in the DNA.

Explanation:

Transcription begins when an enzyme called RNA polymerase is added to the DNA template and begins a new chain a new chain to produce complementary RNA. During the RNA synthesis transcription takes place, then the cap and tail is added and then splicing occurs. RNA polymerase moves from the 3 'end to the template strand creating the RNA-DNA double helix or similar the base sequences. This makes a chain with each sugar by the set of bonds called phosphodiaster linkage. Then, the enzyme unwind the DNA and begins the synthesis of RNA. Therefore, D. Nucleic acids attach to the bases in the DNA.
