8. The cell wall is the outer most covering of the cell. ... The cell membrane is present in almost all types of cells. The cell wall is present in bacteria, fungi, algae and plant cell.
9. the spreading of something more widely.
10. In facilitated diffusion, molecules only move with the aid of a protein in the membrane. In simple diffusion, molecules move down the concentration gradient but in facilitated diffusion molecules move up the concentration gradient.
11. a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one
12. Differences: Passive Transport (or Diffusion) moves ions from high concentration to low, using no metabolic energy. Active Transport moves ions from low concentration to high, using metabolic energy in the form of ATP. ... Both use ion channels to move ions across the cell membrane, in or out of the cell

The rate of a reaction catalyzed by an enzymes usually ________ with temperature; however, at temperatures above the optimum ran

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

increases; protein denaturation occurs

Explanation:

One of the characteristic of enzymes is the sensitivity to temperature .

Enzymes are sensitive to the changes in the environmental temperature.The enzymatic activities increases with increase in temperature,up to the optimum of 37 degrees in most animals.

However,once the optimum temperature has been exceeded,enzyme activities drops.This is because below optimum the rate of collision between the enzyme active sites and substrate molecules is very high,therefore more products are formed which increases the rate of reactions.

At temperature above the optimum,the high temperature breaks the bonds,especially the hydrogen bonds holding the 3D structure of the active sites.Therefore,substrate molecules can not fit into the active site,and therefore enzymatic actives of the enzyme is affected,and the enzyme is said to be denatured

Explain why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins

Harman [31]

The sole reason why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins is that red blood cells lack DNA and cell organelles such as nucleus, ribosomes and mitochondria which are crucial for protein synthesis, assembly and repair. In other words they lack both the information and the machinery for making or repair of proteins.

Due to lack of DNA and cell organelles, red blood cells cannot be able satisfy the central dogma which summarizes synthesis of proteins as DNA → RNA → proteins.

DNA has the genetic information on how proteins should be made, RNA is responsible for transferring the information from DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, then translating or decoding this information, which results in the making of protein.

Chemical energy in the form of food is changed into what?

RSB [31]

Food is the most important source of chemical energy for living things. The chemical energy in food is converted, or changed, by the body into moving mechanical energy and heat energy. People have invented ways to use the chemical energy of substances to power machines.
