The correct answer is option (D) The active transport and the facilitated diffusion both involve the proteins present in the cell membrane.
Facilitated diffusion transport the large and the charged molecules through the protein transport channels present in the cell membrane. In this case, the solute move from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration and it does not require energy.
Active transports takes place when the molecules move from a region of lower concentration to higher concentration via the membrane protein channels.
Both facilitated diffusion and active transport requires the proteins present in the cell membrane.
Answer:
Assimilation
Explanation:
Plant roots absorb ammonium ions and nitrate ions in the process of assimilation to use these ions to make molecules like <em>DNA, amino acids, and proteins</em>.
Animals cannot absorb these ions directly; hence they need to consume these plants for the nutrient supplies.
1 because there’s more absorption meaning less water to runoff
Answer:
Birds can keep themselves warn without any external heat source which is not the case with reptiles and amphibians
Explanation:
Birds are able to generate heat means they are endothermic. They generate heat through various metabolic processes. They have air pockets beneath their feathers to insulate their bodies during cold temperatures. Feathers which are modified reptilian scales help birds to streamline their exterior body and structure feathers in a way that it insulates the body.
Answer:
The effect of amanitin on the maximum elongation rate for the wild-type and modified RNA polymerases is that it binds to the RNA polymerases, and reduces the process of translocation which is essential for RNA synthesis that is required for RNA polymerases elongation.
Explanation:
Amanitin is a peptide that is cyclic in nature. It is repelled by water thereby making it an hydrophobic peptide.
Amanitin is a toxic peptide that is found in Amanita ( a type of mushroom).
Alpha Amanitin in particular is the one that affects the elongation rate of RNA Polymerases in the body.
When Alpha Amanitin gets into the body system, it travels straight to the liver and due to its very strong affinity for RNA polymerases, it immediately attaches itself to them.
After the attachment, Alpha Amanitin, is disturbs the bridge helix found in RNA polymerase, preventing the hindering and slowing down the proces of translocation from happening.
Once translocation is hindered, RNA is no longer synthesized. Hence, the elongation of RNA polymerases is hindered and this results in severe illness in the body such as liver failure, cytolysis of the liver
