Answer:
The protein is targeted to Golgi apparatus.
Explanation:
Protein targeting or sorting is a process by which synthesized proteins are transported to their appropriate localizations in the cell or outside it. Proteins can be targeted to the inner space of an organelle (such as Golgi apparatus or endoplasmic reticulum) or its membrane, plasma membrane, or to exterior of the cell via secretion.
Usually, protein contains signal sequence on the N terminus that is involved in destination targeting.
Answer:
When a species goes into hibernation, the heart rate drops drastically, and the body temperature does as well, in order to conserve energy. The body becomes induced into a comatose state by releasing chemicals from the brain to body to go into sleep mode.
Explanation:
Hibernation usually occurs during the winter.
Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be endemic.
Explanation:
Endemic organisms are taxonomic species (plants and animals) which originates and distributed only in specific geographic regions. This state of evolution is called endemism.
They are said to be native or indigenous to that particular region which can be an ecological habitat, an entire nation, an island, a mountain range etc. Certain parts are known for majority of their species being endemic like St. Helen Island, New Caledonia Island, Hawaiian Islands, Southern regions of Africa, and Australia.
The species becomes endemic to a particular region because of the presence of certain bio-geographical environmental qualities of that habitat which are favorable to that species.
When these conditions become unfavorable, then species becomes restricted leading to endangerment or extinction of the species.
Examples:
- Kangaroo - Australia
- Nilgiri Tahr, - Nilgiri Hills, India
- The Redwood trees of West Coast of the USA
- Plants like kalo, sumac of Hawaii
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Cardiac muscle cells appear striated. However, they are involuntary, unlike skeletal muscle cells, because they contract outside of human control. For example, you do not have to think about contracting your heart muscles as the already contract for you. On the other hand, skeletal muscle cells are controlled by humans as they decide which body movement to perform, such as walking or pointing.
Starting from the outer part:
•Tunica externa (fibrous layer)
•Tunica media (smooth muscle)
•Tunica intima (endothelial cells layer)
