An internal membrane system where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials

1 answer:

3 0

A. Lipid bilayer: the phospholipid bilayer is the membrane of a cell. The bilayer contains lipids, membrane proteins, cholesterol, receptors for various molecules, pumps to transport ions and solutes against the concentration gradient, and many other items necessary for a cell to function and work together with other cells.

b. Osmotic pressure: Osmosis is the flow of water across a semipermeable barrier from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration. Osmotic pressure is the lowest possible pressure to prevent this water movement.

c. Endoplasmic Reticulum: the Rough ER synthesizes proteins for use outside the cell. The Smooth ER produces lipids and some steroidal hormones.

A. Lipid Bilayer is therefore the correct answer. Osmotic pressure does not involve the various components of the cell membrane, and the ER's produce proteins and hormones. Therefore A is right.

Hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need a clarification.

Which of the following is a way that new DNA can be introduced to bacteria?

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer here would be that it can be injected by a virus.

Since a virus operates by taking over the genetic system of the host and uses its replication, transcription, and translation to make virions or viral particles through the lytic or lysogenic life cycle. In the process, if the virus is utilized as a vector to carry a foreign DNA, the DNA is introduced into the genome of the bacteria. This is exactly what happens during the process known as transduction.

The correct option is, therefore, B.

Answer:

1. Atmosphere and ecosystem

2. Carbon/CO2 is absorbed by the plants and then released as oxygen.

3. Carbon is used in the cellular respiration process to make ATP.

4. Decomposers break down dead material and release CO2 in that process into the atmosphere for plants to use that carbon for photosynthesis again.

Earth's surface winds generally blow from regions of higher

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Earth's surface wind generally blow from regions of higher AIR PRESSURE TOWARDS REGION OF LOWER AIR PRESSURE.
The direction in which the wind blow on the earth surface is a product of many factors, the most important of these factors are: pressure, friction and Coriolis effects. On the earth surface, the wind normally blow from high to low pressure. A high pressure system followed by a low pressure system allows the wind to flow in clockwise direction outward toward a low pressure system. This ensures the continuous flow of the wind.
