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.

How is it possible for two proteins in the same cell to perform different functions
DedPeter [7]

Enzymes are regulated by more than the binding of small molecules. A second method that is used all the time by eucaryotic cells to regulate a protein's function is the covalent addition of a phosphate group to one of its amino acid side chains. These phosphorylation events can affect the protein in two important ways.

Answer: Maybe if you knew the def's you could answer it.

Initial Decay – Bacteria located mainly in the lower intestine begin decomposition, giving a greenish color to the lower abdomen. Stage 2: Putrefaction – Bacteria grow throughout the body, releasing gases, including cadaverine, which in turn bloat the body and cause unpleasant odor.

putrefaction

the process of decay or rotting in a body or other organic matter.

Black putrefaction occurs, which is when noxious odors are released from the body and the parts of the body undergo a black discoloration. 2 weeks: The abdomen is bloated; internal gas pressure nears maximum capacity. 3 weeks: Tissues have softened. Organs and cavities are bursting.

Fermentation occurring in putrefaction and apparently in the digestion of herbivorous mammals in which butyric acid is produced by certain chiefly anaerobic bacteria acting upon various organic substances (such as lactic acid or butter)

A dry body will not decompose efficiently. Moisture helps the growth of microorganisms that decompose the organic matter, but too much moisture could lead to anaerobic conditions slowing down the decomposition process
