The correct statements are:
•An NLS can be a monopartite or bipartite signal which includes a significant number of basic amino acids.
• The recycling of importins back to their original conformation requires GTP hydrolysis in the cytoplasm.
The other answers are incorrect because GTP is not required for an importin to bind to an NLS but for the release of importin and an NES or nuclear export signal is the sequence in a protein for export from the cell nucleus to the cytoplasm, not to the nucleolus.
Oceanic lithosphere consists mainly of mafic crust and ultramafic mantle (peridotite) and is denser than continental lithosphere, for which the mantle is associated with crust made of felsic rocks. Oceanic lithosphere thickens as it ages and moves away from the mid-ocean ridge. This thickening occurs by conductive cooling, which converts hot asthenosphere into lithospheric mantle and causes the oceanic lithosphere to become increasingly thick and dense with age. In fact, oceanic lithosphere is a thermal boundary layer for the convection[9] in the mantle. The thickness of the mantle part of the oceanic lithosphere can be approximated as a thermal boundary layer that thickens as the square root of time.
Answer:
Liquid and with a higher osmotic pressure
Explanation:
Remember that a cell that is surrounded by an environment with a higher osmotic pressure, will produce that the cell get some water outside to make some dilution to the salt concentration that surrounds the protozoan.
Answer:
.
Explanation:
The cytoskeleton is responsible for contraction, cell motility, movement of organelles and vesicles through the cytoplasm, cytokinesis, establishment of the intracellular organization of the cytoplasm, establishment of cell polarity, and many other functions that are essential for cellular homeostasis and survival.
