When you are exposed to sunlight for a long time, your skin, which otherwise appears normal, gets heavily tanned. What could be

the reason?
A.The genes for melanin pigmentation remain turned on and prepare more melaninthan usual to protect the skin from photo-damage when it is exposed to sunlight for long time.

B.The genes for melanin pigmentation remain turned off and synthesize more melanin than usual to protect the skin from photo-damage when itexposed to sunlight for a long time.

C.The genes for melanin pigmentation are switched off to stop the synthesis of melanin to protect the skin from photo-damage when it is exposed to sunlight for a long time.

I think it would be the first one:
The genes for melanin pigmentation remain turned on and prepare more melaninthan usual to protect the skin from photo-damage when exposed to sunlight for long time.

I could be wrong, i had a similar question in the 8th grade, I can't remember.

Place the following steps of endomembrane system function in the correct order.
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

<em>The correct option here would be</em><em> D</em><em>.</em>

The endomembrane system refers to a group of membrane-based organelles whose primary function is to synergistically work together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. The system includes organelles such as the lysosome, the nuclear envelope, the endoplasmic reticulum, and the Golgi apparatus.

For an endomembrane system function involving a protein, the protein would first of all need to be synthesized by the ribosome - the free ones or the ones attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Thereafter, the synthesized protein would then be folded or packaged into transportable vesicles. The vesicles are then received by the Golgi apparatus which further modifies the proteins before transporting them accordingly.

Hence, the correct order of a typical endomembrane system function would be:

  1. <em>Ribosomes on the RER synthesize proteins.</em>
  2. <em>Proteins are packaged into transport vesicles.</em>
  3. <em>Golgi apparatus receives transport vesicles from the RER.</em>
  4. <em>Proteins are modified by the Golgi apparatus.</em>
  5. <em>Modified proteins may be secreted from the cell by exocytosis.</em>

guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The ash trees are being cut when the show signs of infestation of the ash borer. Ash borer in particular the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) is a tiny bug but can really do a great damage to the tree. When the tree is infested with the ash borer, they lay their eggs in the bark of tree, when the eggs hatch the lavas would start eating on the inner tissues of the tree blocking the flow of nutrients and water in the tree that causes the tree’s to death.  If the tree is infested they cut it down, burn and bury the wood to stop the spread of infestation. Ash trees are valued for its strength and elasticity that is often used to make baseball bats, bows, tool handles and other products that needs durable wood.</span>
