Answer:

The correct answer is a. messenger RNA

Explanation:

The plasma membrane mainly contains lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. Phospholipids make the bilayer of the plasma membrane. Carbohydrates can be found attached to proteins and lipids.  

The carbohydrates that are attached to lipids are called phospholipids and those with proteins are called glycoproteins. mRNA is the molecule which is not the part of the plasma membrane. mRNA is produced in the nucleus through the transcription process and is responsible for proteins formation.

So phospholipids, glycolipids, and glycoproteins are the part of the plasma membrane but not messenger RNA.

Answer: Messenger RNA  

Explanation:

The main component of the cell membrane are made of cholesterol and phospholipids. Carbohydrates might also be one of the components of plasma membrane.

A phopholipids is a lipid bylayer which is made of glycerol,phosphate linked head group and two fatty acid tails and a  

Messenger RNA is not a component of the plasma membrane.

It is a semipermeable in nature because of its constituents.

Which type of transport requires energy to move a molecule?
wlad13 [49]

Active transport

requires energy. This is because it is going against the natural process of diffusion. Substances diffuse when their net movement is down the concentration gradient (from higher concentration to lower). Active transport is movement from lower concentration to higher. Cytosis (phagocytosis , pinocytosis) also requires energy.

Was the bag that gained the most weight hypertonic hypotonic or isotonic
pychu [463]
Definitely hypotonic. isotonic wouldn't change weight and hypertonic would lose weight.

Which process is responsible for the conversion of dna information into messenger rna?
Mamont248 [21]
The conversion of DNA information into the messenger RNA is transcription. In the transcription process the genetic code sequence is transcribed into the mRNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase. Hence the process conversion DNA sequence into mRNA is called as transcription.

How would a mistake in transcribing the DNA message affect your ability to catch the killer?
mel-nik [20]

Answer: When the DNA collected on the crime scene is being analysed in the forensic lab, the results will be inconclusive, because error in DNA transcription, particularly in mRNA encoding leads to inheritable phenotype change by reprogramming the transcriptional network, without changing the DNA. Transcription errors are brief with no long-term consequences. Due to mRNA being short-lived and the erroneous proteins are degraded. A decrease in transcription accuracy triggers cellular identity change.

Explanation: This is called epimutation, a heritable modification that results in the change of gene expression, but not the DNA sequence. Epimutation is not associated with DNA mutation, but is associated with the loss or gain of DNA methylation or other heritable changes of the chromatin.
