Biology
1 answer:
Vlada [557]3 years ago

Answer:

  • Liver cells are abundant in SER.  
  • The testes and ovaries are tissue types whose cells are abundant in SER.
  • Cholesterol is made in the SER.
  •  Phospholipids are synthesized from cytosolic water soluble precursor molecules.  

Explanation:

This is because liver cells contain enzymes that metabolize various lipid-soluble compounds.

This is because testes and ovaries produce steroid hormones (cholesterol is the precursor for their synthesis).

ER is the organelle at which all membrane lipids are synthesized.

Phospholipids are the main lipids that are the main structural components of the cell membrane. They are synthesized on the cytosolic side of the ER membrane, from water-soluble cytosolic precursors.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Option (4).

Explanation:

Cell membrane potential may be defined as the difference in the electric potential between inside and outside of the cell. This potential is important for the action potential.

The resting membrane potential of the cell is -70mV. This membrane potential is maintained by the potassium ions of the cell. The cell membrane are almost 40 times more permeable to potassium ions than sodium ions and makes the cell membrane potential negative.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

Explanation on Mitosis​
Kipish [7]
Mitosis is the division that results in two “daughter” cells. Both of these daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the “parent” cell.
Mitosis consists of 4 phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Prophase: the DNA is copied and the chromosomes pair up
Metaphase: the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled apart from each other towards opposite sides of the cell
Telophase: the cell begins to pinch in the middle and separates into two identical daughter cells
