Answer:

When group of tissues are formed from a cell layer of squamous cell,then the epithelium formed is said to be simple squamous epithelium.These cells are tightly packed together,to form the lining of the cell surface.Thus they are in directs contact with the basement membrane underlying the cell structure. Therefore,they act as selectively membrane structure for osmosis,diffusion,This explain their presence in the alveolar and kidney,where filtration takes place

In additions ,due to their one cell layer thickness,they form the lining of fragile of delicate body cavities. e.g the alveolar in the lungs, lymphatic vessels,and inner lining of the wall of the heart.

Besides they also contain membrane proteins,which aids the control of substances across their walls of tight junctions.Thus ions, molecules passages is regulated

Genes that code for proteins that promote the cell cycle and inhibit apoptosis are called _____.

garik1379 [7]

Genes that code for proteins that promote the phone cycle and inhibit apoptosis are known as proto-oncogenes.

In distinction to the cell proliferation-stimulating function of proto-oncogenes and oncogenes that power the cell cycle forward, tumor suppressor genes code for proteins that generally function to preclude mobile growth and division or even promote programmed mobile death (apoptosis).

<h3>Which of the following is a gene that generally codes for a protein that suppresses mobilephone division?</h3>

Tumor suppressor gene.

Difference between specialist and generalist species and their niches?? Example of both?? A little help please

igor_vitrenko [27]

A generalist species is able to survive in a wide variety of environmental conditions and can make use of lots of different resources. Generalist species have a big niche. Humans, rabbits, house flies, and raccoons would all fall under the generalist species list.

A specialist species can only thrive is a small variety of environmental conditions and/or only has a limited diet. Specialist species have a small niche. Pandas, koalas, and salamanders would all fall under the specialist species list.
