Because the cell membran is selectively permeable it allows the cells to do what?

1 answer:

7 0

The presence of a selectively permeable membrane allows the cell to exercise control over the quantum, timing and rate of movement of these molecules. Movement across a selectively permeable membrane can occur actively or passively. For example, water molecules can move passively through small pores on the membrane.

Answer:

For example, the respiratory and circulatory systems work together to provide the body with oxygen and to rid the body of carbon dioxide. The lungs provide a place where oxygen can reach the blood and carbon dioxide can be removed from it. Each of your body systems relies on the others to work well. Your respiratory system relies on your circulatory system to deliver the oxygen it gathers, while the muscles of your heart cannot function without the oxygen they receive from your lungs. ... Your circulatory system delivers oxygen-rich blood to your bones.

Phytoplankton are microscopic marine plants that perform photosynthesis. They are responsible for removing the majority of carbo

MAVERICK [17]

The correct answer is - oxygen.

The phytoplankton and the microscopic marine plants are using the process of photosynthesis in order to produce energy for them. In order for this process to take place, two things are needed, sunlight and carbon dioxide. The consumed carbon dioxide is not totally used, but there's some waste from it. The waste is actually the oxygen. The oxygen is released and it gets back into the atmosphere. This gas is crucial for the survival of the living organisms on the planet, especially the animals, so it is extremely import that the environment of the phytoplankton and the microscopic marine plants is not destroyed, as they are the ones that release the biggest amount of oxygen into the atmosphere.

1. What is meant by the term semiconservative replication? How does a leading strand differ from a lagging strand? List the ways

Reil [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Semiconservative replication is one of the type of replication methods proposed to take place in the cell and has also been confirmed to be the type that actually takes place in the cell. Semiconservative replication involves the production of two copies (of which one is the parental strand which acts as template and the other is the newly synthesized strand) of the original DNA molecule. A leading strand is the newly synthesized strange running in the 5' to 3' direction, the template strand runs from the 3' to 5' direction while the lagging strand is the newly fragmentally synthesized strand oriented in such a way that its production runs in the 5' to 3' direction for each okazaki fragment. Its template strand runs in the 5' to 3' direction.

The cell copes with errors in replication either by performing the 3' to 5' exonuclease proofreading during replication or by utilizing the cell's DNA repair system.
