Although choanoflagellates are fundamentally unicellular organisms, they possess genes that code for cadherins and integrins. Wh

ich of the following hypotheses regarding the function of these molecules in choanoflagellates is supported by laboratory experiments?
a. Cadherins and integrins are used for cell adhesion during the formation of temporary multicellular structures to defend against predators.

b. The genes are not actually expressed and are simply vestiges of an ancestor that used cadherins and integrins for adhesion.

c. Cadherins and integrins are used for cell adhesion during the formation of complex multicellular structures that are resistant to freezing temperatures.

d. Choanoflagellates use adhesion molecules to help capture bacterial prey.

e. Choanoflagellates are parasites and use cadherins to attach to host organisms.

Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within _______.
horsena [70]

Frozen red blood cells that have been thawed, deglycerolized and reconstituted in an open system must be used within 24 hours.

Cryopreservation of Red blood cells (RBCs) can be done with a long time span of usability of 10 years. Glycerol safeguards RBCs during freezing and defrosting, yet it can cause hemolysis if it is not washed off or eliminated before transfusion. When a unit has been deglycerolized, the shelf life of RBCs in an open system is only 24 hours, bringing about sporadic utilization of Frozen RBCs from the outset of the procedure or in close system cases it is up to 14 days.

Glucose enters erythrocytes via a GLUT-1 uniporter. As the levels of glucose in the bloodstream decrease between meals, what hap
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

A. Glucose leaves the cell through the GLUT-1 uniporter, traveling down the new concentration gradient.  

Explanation:

The Glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) protein is a critical uniporter transporter that facilitates the movement of glucose molecules across the plasma membrane. The expression of GLUT1 is increased when glucose concentration is reduced and, inversely, GLUT1 expression is reduced when glucose levels are increased. The erythrocytes are cells that continuously require the supply of glucose from the blood plasma, this mechanism involves the function of GLUT1 that permits the energy-free passage of glucose by diffusion.
