Which of the following is NOT a capillary transport mechanism?

Biology

Answer:

Bulk flow

Explanation:

Generally when there is  mass movements of molecules of the fluids from a high pressure gradients to low pressure gradients; that is down the concentration gradients, the process is called Bulk flow. In relation to cells, it is  the exchange of material between cells  through the pores of the adjoining  cells. In xylem , water and minerals flow from high pressure roots to the leaves, and phloem transport food substances from the  leaves the sources at high pressure to other parts of the plants.

The capillary transport mechanisms involves the movements of fluids, ions across the fenestration of the capillaries due to  the hydostatic  pressure of the fluid from the high pressure to the low pressure cellular environments.This is common in the  glomerulus of the kidney, intestine, and some endocrine glands.

The single wall endothelial lining of  capillaries forms continuous wall which allows passage of ions and fluids while restricting movements of large molecules. Generally the high pressure  from the hydrostatic pressure forces these materials across the walls.

Simple diffusion  which follows concentration  gradient across membranes ensures distribution of substances across the walls for fast uptake by the cells.

The movement of Macromolecules  across capillary wall is called vesicular transport.

Thus Bulk flow is odd.

Describe the direction of DNA replication. Why is that important?
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

DNA replication is the process by that DNA make a copy to the cell division.

Explanation:

  • DNA replication is the double structure to the DNA molecule,it is biological process.
  • DNA replication molecule the serve that template for the production to referred conservative replication.
  • DNA replication occurs living the biological property of division and they performed complementary stand.
  • DNA replication to that begin the specific location and origins in the genome, and growing from the origin.
  • DNA replication is performed to the outside and artificially to the cell,in the DNA molecule.
  • DNA replication is single strand by the DNA chain of nucleotide function, DNA contain the sugar .
  • DNA replication is the basis of single strand to 3 prime and 5 prime  end, these refer to the carbon atom in the chain attaches.
  • DNA replication allow the strand to the one another strand to used in partner strand.
  • DNA replication is to matched in the template strand at one time with the creation of bonds,they high energy bonds.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

d) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.

Explanation:

This occurs in the process of Glycogenolysis. The process involves breaking down of glycogen to glucose  -1- phosphate and glycogen which helps in the release of glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia(low blood sugar). The glucose-1-phosphate is later converted to glucose -6-phosphate. The latter enters the glycolytic pathway in which the reaction is catalysed by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

This homeostatic glucose regulation  is regulated by the protein kinase(PKA)/ cAMP pathway in the skeletal muscles, the liver and the pancreas.
