Answer: Large molecules and wastes move through the membrane through forms of active transport- endocytosis and exocytosis.

Explanation:

Molecules are moved across the cell membrane via different mechanisms like diffusion, facilitated diffusion and passive transport; however, some very large molecules require specialized types of active transport to cross over- these are endocytosis and exocytosis.

During endocytosis large molecules cells and cell fragments moved across the plasma membrane through a process of <em>invagination;</em> piece of the external cell membrane falls into itself and forms a small pocket that surrounds the target molecule this breaks off from the membrane to form an intracellular vesicle. Different methods of endocytosis such as <em>phagocytosis, pinocytosis </em>and receptor-mediated <em>endocytosis</em>, take in cells,  water and targeted substances respectively.

Like endocytosis, the particles (signal proteins, neurotransmitters and waste material) are surrounded by a phospholipid membrane. However, in exocytosis, this membrane is formed in the cytoplasm, and merges with the plasma membrane’s interior in a process <em>opposite to </em>endocytosis; material is removed from the cell and exported into the cell’s exterior called the extracellular space.

Suppose the human trait for hair type is controlled by a simple dominant and recessive relationship at one locus. Curly hair, C,
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

A) The frequency of the dominant allele, C = 0.4376

B) frequency of the heterozygous genotype, Cc = 0.2461

Explanation:

Given -

Curly hair, C, is the dominant allele, and straight hair, c, is the recessive allele

Number of students with curly hair is 37

Thus frequency of genotype "CC"

= q^{2} = \frac{37}{117} \\= 0.3162

Thus, frequency of allele "q"

= \sqrt{0.3162} \\= 0.5623

As per Hardy Weinberg's first  equation-

p+q=1

Substituting the value of q, we get -

p+0.5623=1\\p= 0.4376

As per Hardy Weinberg's second equation -

p^2+q^2+2pq=1\\

Substituting the values of "p" and "q" we get -

0.4376^{2} + 0.3162+2pq = 1\\2pq = 0.2461\\

Hence,

A) The frequency of the dominant allele, C = 0.4376

B) frequency of the heterozygous genotype, Cc = 0.2461
