Answer:
b) Channel pumps
Explanation:
The channels are the transmembrane proteins that serve in the passive transport of substances down the concentration gradient. The channels can be gated or non-gated. The gated channels are opened and closed in response to certain stimuli such as electrical change.
For example, aquaporins are the gated water channels that transport the water across the plasma membrane. The process is driven by the osmotic gradient and does not use the energy of ATP.
<span>The trick here is to understand the definition of each of the cellular transport or function mechanisms listed. These are some interesting (and strange) analogies!
Facilitated Diffusion
This is when a mechanism assists in diffusing (spreading) some material into an environment. The dog on the wagon going through a spring loaded door would shoot it out into the environment. This is an odd analogy but Point 3 would be the one.
Active Transport
Is when energy is expended to transport molecules somewhere against a concentration gradient or some other barrier. Examples include transporting molecules across a cell wall. The best analogy is the dog being dragged into a bathtub (Point 1).
Phagocytosis
This is when a larger cell consumes a molecule often like eating. This matches to point 2 - the child eating the doughnut.
Passive Diffusion
Is when a concentration of molecules naturally diffuse into an environment. This suits point 5 - the crowded room full of people.
Pinocytosis
Is the budding of cell membranes to consume liquid in the surrounding environment. I guess a woman drinking tea is the closest analogy listed (Point 4).</span>
Answer:
We mean that a cell changes to another type of cell.
Explanation:
<em>Stem cells </em>are a type of cell that has the potential to become a specialized cell, this change or differentiation, is possible thanks to the activation or deactivation of certain genes that promote (or inhibit) the expression of certain proteins that origins different types of cells (fmuscle cells, osteocytes, neurons). This differentiation happens when the cells receive cues internally ( through signals or contact between a group of cells and another or through transcription factors) or externally.
Then, a differentiated cell is a cell that had gone under the previously described process.
I hope this information is useful to you!
Answer:
This is false.
Explanation:
Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements. ... Most stars have small amounts of heavier elements like carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and iron, which were created by stars that existed before them.
Answer:
<em>The offspring which carries the allele II will be homozygous dominant.</em>
Explanation:
A dominant trait can be described as a trait which masks the effect of a recessive trait. A recessive trait can be described as a trait which gets masked by the dominant trait.
A homozygous dominant trait occurs when both the alleles for the gen are dominant. A heterozygous dominant trait occurs when one allele is dominant and the other is recessive for the trait.
Hence, a homozygous dominant trait will carry the alleles II.
