Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Using the prefix micro- and using what you know about meteoroids, which description below would best fit?

A. a large particle of dust or rock moving at slow speeds through space.  B. a small particle of dust or rock moving at fast speeds through space.  C. a large particle of dust or rock moving at fast speeds through space.  D. a small particle of dust or rock moving at slow speeds through space."

Answer:

B. a small particle of dust or rock moving at fast speeds through space.

Explanation:

Micrometeoroids are small particles of dust or rock, smaller than asteroids, sometimes smaller than an atom, and that roam in space at high speeds. Depending on the diameter of a micrometeoroid, it can reach speeds close to the speed of light.

Micrometeoroids are fragments that have been released from an asteroid or from another rocky celestial body. They are a concern for astronauts who can be reached by them.

How are the based-pairing rules different for RNA then DNA
DedPeter [7]
The “bases” of RNA differ from those of DNA in that thymine (T) is replaced by uracil (U) in RNA. ... In DNA/RNA base pairing, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G).

Name 3 similarities between Saturn and Venus
Tanya [424]

Answer:

All four planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are inner planets or also referred as terrestrial planets. Those are the planets orbiting closest to the Sun.

Earth is the largest of the Inner Planets, with a diameter of 12,756 km and Mercury is the smallest with a diameter of 4,878 km (3,031 miles). They have solid surfaces and thin/no atmospheres. Mercury is one of the densest planets in the Solar System. Venus is the brightest object we see in the sky, has a thick toxic atmosphere and is the hottest planet. Earth is the only planet that has liquid water.Mars surface contains iron-rich materials and has the most interesting terrain: the surface is very old and filled with craters.

1. How does the cell membrane allow animals to move without rupturing the cells in the body?
oksian1 [2.3K]

.

Explanation:

1)The cell membrane functions as a semi-permeable barrier, allowing a very few molecules across it while fencing the majority of organically produced chemicals inside the cell. Electron microscopic examinations of cell membranes have led to the development of the lipid bilayer model (also referred to as the fluid-mosaic model). The most common molecule in the model is the phospholipid, which has a polar (hydrophilic) head and two nonpolar (hydrophobic) tails.

2) simple diffusion across the cell plasma membrane. The structure of the lipid bilayer allows small, uncharged substances such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, and hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, to pass through the cell membrane, down the concentration gradient is , by simple diffusion.

3) some molecules, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen, can diffuse across the plasma membrane directly, but others need help to cross its hydrophobic or however, because they are charged the polar, they can't cross the phospholipid part of the membrane without help .

4) during fission a copy of the DNA is made and attached to the cell membrane as well. As this cell elongate in preparation for fission, the two DNA copies are pulled apart two opposite ends of the cell. New membrane material is deposited between the two ends of the cell, and a new wall grows between them .

5) UMASS STEM-ED From Bubbles to Cell Membranes Workshop. Bubble ... dynamic nature which can't be properly appreciated in a static textbook. ... the small thread through one of the straws.

6) example of passive transport and active transport across a cell membrane so, cell membranes are semipermeable meaning they have control over what molecules can or cannot pass through. Some molecules can just drift Inn.
