Answer:

D) integrins

Explanation:

The extracellular matrix is an intricate network of carbohydrates and proteins in the cells extracellular space. <em>Collagen proteins </em>undergo modification with carbohydrates within the cell to form collagen fibers; they are interwoven with proteoglycan complexes is made up of carbohydrates proteins and polysaccharides. The resulting mesh is capable of providing structural integrity, mechanical strength and support to tissue.

In the ECM, the fibers are joined to integrins by fibrobronectin bridges. Integrin proteins form crucial connections between surrounding cells, are embedded within the cells' plasma membranes and anchors them in the ECM. Also, they facilitate cell communication in the environment- <u>they are capable of detecting mechanical and chemical signals</u> from the ECM and respond by stimulating signal pathways inside the cell.

Describe two inheritance patterns besides simple dominance
Phantasy [73]

Explanation: All of it is in gamete formation. Meaning, it is going through a gamete formation which also means that pairs of alleles that are for different traits, segregate. They move on independently from one another, never touching.

For your question, It's incomplete dominance which is when cases with one allele isn't complete to be dominant over another allele. It's all got to come together in order for it to become a strong and dominant allele, or else it won't be complete and won't become and do what it has to.

I hope this help you and I hope that I gave you what you wanted/needed for this question.

Very low concentrations of detergent make membranes leaky to small molecules and ions without damaging proteins. In isolated mit
Grace [21]

Options

A. Yes, because all enzymes and electron carriers are functional

B. No, because with a leaky membrane, the proton gradient cannot be maintained

C. No, because leaky membranes inhibit glycolysis

D. No, because leaky membranes do not allow NADH and FADH2 to donate their electrons to the electron transport chain

Answer:

B. No, because with a leaky membrane, the proton gradient cannot be maintained

Explanation:

The proton motive force (PMF) provides the needed pump  to generate electrochemical gradients of proton needed for continue influx  into the matix of the mitochondria. The proton Influx generates the energy needed by  protein ATPase Synthase for  synthesis  of ATPs by adding inorganic phosphate to ADP to give ATP.

               ADP + Pi -----------→ ATP.

If the mitochondria;l  intramembrane leaks, then the PMF can  not be sustained, therefore electtrochermical gradient which supplies the energy for ATP synthase for ATP synthesis will not be available. Therefore ATP synthesis stops.
