Answer:
B. The membrane lets certain substances move across it freely, while others must move through a “gate”.
Explanation:
Selective permeability is a property of cellular membranes that only allows certain molecules to enter or exit the cell. This is important for the cell to maintain its internal order irrespective of the changes to the environment. For example, water, ions, glucose and carbon dioxide may need to be imported or exported from the cell depending on its metabolic activity. Similarly, signaling molecules may need to enter the cell and proteins may need to be released into the extracellular matrix. The presence of a selectively permeable membrane allows the cell to exercise control over the quantum, timing and rate of movement of these molecules.
Answer: Y goes to proteins.
Explanation:
Enzymes, which are a form of protein, are used by the cell to accelerate chemical reactions.
Answer:
The complimentary strand of codons would be CAG-UAC-AAA-UCA-AGG-GAU-AUC.
Explanation:
C (Cytosine) pairs to G (Guanine).
Think of it as *C*ar in the *G*arage.
A (Adenine) pairs to U (Uracil).
Think of it as *A*pples *U*nder the tree.
