Answer:
Fibrous
Explanation:
Proteins are assembled according to their functions. Fibrous proteins usually provide protection and support to cells. They are made up of polypeptides that have elongated shape and assembles in large cables or threads. These proteins are differentiated from globular proteins by their globular form and repeated units of amino acids.
For example the fibrous proteins involved in horns, hair and nails is alpha-keratin. Elastin found in skin and ligament is also a fibrous protein. Collagen includes collagen fibrils that have tensile strength of steel is also a fibrous protein found in cartilages and bones.
Answer:
The cell membrane is an important factor for homeostasis to happen.
Explanation:
Because the cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that prevents that passage of water and ions. This allows cells to maintain a higher concentration of sodium ions out the outside of the cell.
They are thus known as the "supporting cells" of the nervous system. The four main functions of glial cells are: to surround neurons and hold them in place, to supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons, to insulate one neuron from another, and to destroy and remove the carcasses of dead neurons (clean up).
Answer:
I) Sexual reproduction
II) Mutation
Explanation:
Variations refer to the difference observed within organisms of the same species. Variation are introduced into a population by:
- new genetic combinations that occur during sexual reproduction (i.e during meiosis)
- mutations, spontaneous changes that occur in genes and chromosomes.
