Answer:

The plasma membrane is selectively permeable

Explanation:

hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules can diffuse through the lipid layer, but ions and large polar molecules cannot. Integral membrane proteins enable ions and large polar molecules to pass through the membrane by passive or active transport.

Which method best helps to prevent wind erosion?
Goryan [66]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, the options are:

A. rotating crops

B. decreasing riverbank slopes

C. growing more vegetation

D. avoiding soil compaction

The answer is C. growing more vegetation

Explanation:

Wind erosion is a type of erosion caused by excessive wind. Wind erosion causes the blowing away of the top soil, which contains nutrients from one location to another. There are, however, various ways to prevent wind erosion from occuring which includes: planting of vegetation to serve as windbreak.

The growing of MORE VEGETATION COVER in form of trees can be used to control wind erosion because the trees will serve as windbreak and prevent the flooding effect of wind on the soil.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Cyanobacteria; Horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

According to the endosymbiotic theory it is believed that the eukaryotic plastids (mitochondria and chloroplasts) have developed from symbiotic bacteria, such as cyanobacteria and alpha-proteobacteria.

During this symbiotic process, some genetic material may have been move in between the symbiotic counterparts in a process called Horizontal gene transfer or lateral gene transfer.

thus, the correct answer- Cyanobacteria; Horizontal gene transfer

What is a dominant and recessive allele (and trait)<br><br> (please help!)
harina [27]

Answer: The principle of dominance states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive. An organism with a dominant allele for a particular form of a trait will always exhibit that form of the trait. An organism with a recessive allele for a particular form of a trait will exhibit that form only when the dominant allele for the trait is not present.

Explanation:

  Dominant                 T     t

    TT Tt Tt             T   TT  Tt

 Recessive=           t   Tt   tt
