What was the main function of the protocell’s fatty acid membrane?

Biology
2 answers:
rewona [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is - To allow chemical compounds to enter into the cell.

Explanation:

Protocells are the first cell-like structures that are produced by self-assembly of macromolecules in the membrane-bound spheres called microspheres which have the ability to divide and grow.

So protocells contained RNA ribozyme and fatty acid double membrane. The main function of protocell's fatty acid membrane was to allow the chemical compounds to enter the cell by membrane absorption so that the cell can grow and reproduce with the help of these organic compounds.

Later these reproducible cells may have selected by natural selection and they may evolve to produce prokaryotic cells.

A client is diagnosed with addisonian crisis. list the lab values that will be affected by this disease process.
Rama09 [41]
The values that will be affected by this disease process are;
-Electrolytes; which includes; increased potassium, decreased sodium and increased calcium.
-Increased BUN (blood urea nitrogen) and creatinine 
-Decreased blood glucose (hypoglycemia)
-Decreased cortisol levels.
Addison crisis or Addisonian crisis is a disorder that occurs when the body produces insufficient amounts of certain hormones produced by the adrenal glands. In this disorder, the adrenal glands produce too little cortisol and often insufficient levels of aldosterone as well.

What is the order of cellular respiration reactions quizlet?.
Grace [21]

the citric acid cycle, the electron transport chain, and glycolysis are the 3 steps of respiration.

A glucose molecule gradually decomposes into carbon dioxide and water during cellular respiration.  But far more ATP is later created through a procedure known as oxidative phosphorylation.  A gradient is created as protons are pumped out of the matrix as electrons move down the chain, releasing energy and form ATP as they do so. Oxygen absorbs electrons and takes them at the conclusion of the electron transport chain.

Which of the following terms describes how a neuronal membrane's potential is altered in the presence of inhibitory signals? Vie
pogonyaev

Answer:

Hyperpolarization

Explanation:

When the membrane potential becomes more negative than the resting potential, the membrane is hyperpolarized. Hyperpolarization is inhibitory in nature and decreases the ability of the neuron to generate a neural impulse. During signal transmission at a chemical synapse, binding of neurotransmitters to the receptors stimulates the opening of ligand-gated ion channels. The flow of ions changes the voltage across the membrane and may cause depolarization or hyperpolarization. For instance, the opening of Cl– or K+ channels causes hyperpolarization.
