What's one way that the shape of the insulin receptor is related to its role in cell communication ?

Biology

The insulin receptors have specific shape that is compatible to the glucose molecules. The glucose molecules bind to these receptors, which tells the pancreas to release insulin in order to lower the blood glucose level. Any kind of change in the shape of these receptors because of mutation will hinder this cell communication and stop the insulin release. This will lead to high levels of blood sugar level.

Answer - In general Insulin receptors help by providing specific shape requirements for the glucose or sugar, so that it can produce insulin and release. 

Just like the role in cells communication it gives role and commands to specific order. In this case its like the insulin receptors.

Which is not a major difference in the organization or content of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

All of the above are true

Explanation:

Organisms possess two types of genome viz; prokaryotic genome and eukaryotic genome. The eukaryotic genome is possessed by cells with a well-defined nucleus, where their genetic material (DNA). The prokaryotic genome, on the other hand, lacks a membrane-bound nucleus. The major organization or content between these two genomes are:

- Prokaryotic genomes generally have less DNA and fewer genes than eukaryotic genomes.

- Prokaryotic genomes have fewer repeated sequences and noncoding, intragenic sequences than eukaryotic genomes.

- Most prokaryotic genomes are contained in one circular chromosome while most eukaryotic genomes are contained on several linear chromosomes.

- In general, eukaryotic genomes contain many introns, repeated sequences, and transposable elements.

Based on this, all of the above options are TRUE

What is a type of weathering where rock is dissolved by an acid
nignag [31]

Answer:

Chemical weathering

Explanation:

The weathering of rocks by chemicals is called chemical weathering . Rainwater is naturally slightly acidic because carbon dioxide from the air dissolves in it. Minerals in rocks may react with the rainwater, causing the rock to be weathered. Some types of rock are easily weathered by chemicals.

Definition of chemical weathering: the erosion or disintegration of rocks, building materials, etc., caused by chemical reactions (chiefly with water and substances dissolved in it) rather than by mechanical processes.
