What major structure brings oxygen and nutrients to the cells and carries away waste?

liubo4ka [24]3 years ago

<span>The major structure that supplies the cells with nutrients and removes their waste is the circulatory system. The circulatory system is composed of the heart, the blood vessels going from and back to the heart, and the blood that travels inside them. The blood vessels that carry nutrient and oxygen-rich blood to the cells are arteries. They become the thinner arterioles, and then the thinnest capillaries. With the exception of the pulmonary arteries, which carry non-oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs, all arteries carry oxygenated blood. The capillaries disburse the nutrients and oxygen to the cells and pick up wastes and carbon dioxide, form into the thicker venules, then to form veins, which lead back to the heart (with the exception of the pulmonary veins, which carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart). Veins also differ from arteries in that veins have valves to prevent blood from flowing backward.</span>

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Crossing over increases the genetic variation  

Errors in crossover formation result in chromosomal rearrangements (duplications and deletions) and may also cause chromosome nondisjunction

Explanation:

Crossing over, also known as recombination, refers to the exchange of genetic material (DNA) between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Crossing over increases the genetic variation of the resulting gametes, allowing different genetic combinations to be passed from parents to offspring. Unequal crossing over is a type of error associated with chromosomal duplication and/or deletion events. Unequal crossing over occurs when homologous sequences are not paired precisely. Moreover, errors in crossing over may also cause chromosome nondisjunction, thereby leading to aneuploidies.

inna [77]

Answer:

In the extracellular space

Explanation:

Disulfide bonds are interconnections between chains (or between parts of a chain) formed by the oxidation of cysteine ​​radicals, this reaction is catalyzed by specific enzymes.

Intracellular proteins have no disulfide bonds, which are more common in proteins secreted into the extracellular environment.

Disulfide bonds do not form in the cytoplasm because there are a lot of reducers in the cytoplasm (intracellular environment) , making the disulfide bonds unstable. The reducing environment of cytoplasm causes disulfide bonds (S-S) to return to the form of cysteine ​​groups (-SH).
