A white blood cell engulfing foreign materials is more likely to carry out Endocytosis.

Explanation:

  • Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes up a macromolecule into is cytoplasm by forming a vessicle.
  • In the question two cases are given, both the cases involve the formation of membrane bound  vessicle but in different ways.
  • The excretion of hormones involves the movement of molecule outside the cytoplasm. This process is exocytosis.
  • The engulfment of an antigen by WBC involves taking up of molecule within the cell so that it can be killed and digested. Thus in  this case  Endocytosis is more likely to occur..

What could happen if a mutation in a gene caused a hydrophobic amino acid in a polypeptide to be replaced by a hydrophilic amino
Marysya12 [62]

The new hydrophilic amino acid would not form the same interactions with hydrophobic R groups. As a consequence,   protein's 3D structure would likely be affected.

Different types of amino acids have different properties and thus form different interactions. For example, hydrophobic amino acids (water-repelent) such as alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, cysteine and methionine. participate in van der Waals type of interactions. They often form the hydrophobic core of the protein which doesn’t interact with water surrounding.

On the other hand, hydrophilic amino acids (arginine, asparagine, glutamine, aspartat..) are polar, can dissolve in the water and can join the hydrogen bond network.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

I don't remember much, but I'll try my best.

Explanation:

Over time, sediments rocks pile up to form horizontal layers of sedimentary rocks. The bottom layer of rock forms first, which means it's the oldest. This would mean that while you can't be sure when each layer of sediments formed, each layer is younger than the one below it.

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

The madreporite, which is present in the animals of echinoderm family including sea stars, sea cucumbers and sea urchins, is a part of the circulation system and an opening on the body of the animal that allows it to filter the sea water before taking it in to it's vascular system and control what goes in and out, sort of like a mouth.
