I’m almost 100% sure it’s D, because environmental factors can induce a mutation. A mutation can be beneficial but it can also be harmful, so it’s neither B or C, and it can’t be A, because mutations can come from natural selection as well. So it’s D.

Which is a mechanism for restricting the movement of proteins in the plasma membrane? Choose one or more:
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The correct answers are option A. "tethering proteins to the cell cortex", B. "using barriers such as tight junctions", C. "tethering proteins to the extracellular matrix", D. "forming a covalent linkage with membrane lipids", E. "tethering proteins to the surface of another cell"

Explanation:

According to the fluid-mosaic model, the components of cell membranes are in constant movement forming a barrier to avoid unwanted exterior component internalization and to avoid the loss of precious internal components. This constant movement could cause that proteins move across the plasma membrane. But, this is avoided by several mechanisms including:

A. Tethering proteins to the cell cortex. The cell cortex is a rigid structure made of actin and actomyosin. Proteins found in the plasma membrane are tethered to this structure to restrict their movement.

B. Using barriers such as tight junctions. Tight junctions are barriers found in epithelia made of claudin and occludin proteins. These barriers are impenetrable, which avoid the movement of proteins in the cell membrane.

C. Tethering proteins to the extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix is made of several proteins and macromolecules that provide a structural and biochemical support to cells that are nearby. Proteins could be tethered to this rigid structure as well.

D. Forming a covalent linkage with membrane lipids. The proteins in the cell membrane that form a covalent linkage with membrane lipids are known as lipid-anchored proteins, or lipid-linked proteins.

E. Tethering proteins to the surface of another cell. When cell-cell communication take place it is possible that proteins in the cell membrane got tethered to the surface of the other cell.

Why are plants crunchy when your eat them, but animal protein (meat) is not?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - cell wall made up of cellulose that makes it crunchy.

Explanation:

In plant-based foods, the outer membrane is a cell wall that provides structure and supports the plant to stand erect and protect from the outer environment. The cell wall is mainly composed of cellulose that is a carbohydrate which is comparatively crunchy or tough to the animal protein with a fatty cell membrane that makes it chewier than the crunchy.

The composition of the protective layers of the plant cels and animal cell causes this difference in their texture.
