What’s a biotic factor

Biology

Biotic factors are the living components of an ecosystem. They are sorted into three groups: producers or autotrophs, consumers or heterotrophs, and decomposers or detritivores.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The new cells are the same as the previous ones, since they are the result of the mitosis process.

Explanation:

When we cut our skin, our brain sends information to millions of cells to take action and prevent this cut from putting us in danger. At that moment, the blood cells begin their work, supplying enough oxygen to stop possible bleeding and start the healing process. Then another group of cells swap out possible bacteria that may be trying to get into the wound. Last but not least, skin cells enter cell division and undergo mitosis, to generate new cells and create a new skin layer.

New cells are the same as old cells, as they are the result of mitosis. Mitosis is the process of cell division where one cell gives rise to two cells exactly the same as it.

Common proteins are polymers of 20 different amino acids. How many amino acids are necessary for a protein polymer to have at le
VikaD [51]

Answer:

This way, for 20^2.55 = 2109 amino acids are require to have 2*1056 number different sequences.

Explanation:

Protein should contain 2*1056 of different sequence so

2*1056 = 20^x

 Log (2*1056) = log 20^x

3.3246 = (x ) * 1.3010

X= 2.555

Once a neuron is stimulated and the membrane potential is depolarized, the depolarized axonal membrane is helped to return to it
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cell membrane separates the cell from the outer environment. The extracellular fluid contains the sodium ions (Na+), chloride ions (Cl-), while intracellular fluid contains potassium (K +) and negative anions.

The potential difference arises when the membrane is selectively permeable to some ions. The resting potential is -70mV.  

When the neurons get excited, the sodium ions start to enter by sodium channels.  

Now there are more positive ions inside the cell membrane. It disturbs the resting potential i.e. -70mV. This stage is known as depolarization.

When the inside environment of the cell is more positively charged, the potassium ions start to move out of the cell. It goes out by the voltage-gated channels. Thus resting stage is maintained and it is known as repolarization.

But the initial stability of the cell membrane has to be maintained. To restore the resting stage, the sodium ions start to move out of the membrane and potassium ions enter into the cells again. This is an active transport and has done by the Na+ - K+ pump. Here 3 sodium ions move out and 2  potassium ions pumped into the cell through the plasma membrane.  

Thus the resting potential regains. The potassium ions come back into the cells against the concentration gradient and ATP provides the energy for this phenomena.

Anni [7]
Because gametes (sex cells) are the only cells that pass along genetic information. Somatic cells are the cells that have already differentiated into various organs or tissues. They can't pass on a mutation to offspring because they're not involved in creating it.

The answer is D. They fuse during sexual reproduction
