Answer:
a. Biomagnification
Explanation:
Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.
For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.
The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.
Answer:
The protein likely travels through a common lumen shared by thylakoid membranes and grana, and cannot easily diffuse through the thylakoid membrane.
Explanation:
There is a lot of scientific research in which a specific molecule can be labeled with some fluorescent marker (usually carbon 14). This type of marking allows the researcher to make observations about the movement of these molecules, as you can see in the question above. About the research shown in the question, the researcher realized that the protein labeled with the fluorescent marker moved between the grana and was always in the lumen, so she can conclude that the selocomovement protein moved through the lumen that is shared between the tilacoid membranes and the grana.
Answer: 1
Homeostasis in terms of temperature within the human body is achieved by reaction to stimulation from the environment. For example, in cold temperatures our bodies shiver to get warm.
Lysosomes, because they are the organelles that secrete these hydrolytic enzymes and help break down old organelles, viral/bacterial invaders, and food particles.
Answer:
Each organism absorbs minerals produced by the other
Explanation:
Lichen is a symbiotic association between fungi and alga. The fungus is able to absorb essential mineral ions like calcium, phosphate and potassium better than the alga thus benefiting the alga. The fungus in return gets organic materials from the alga. The alga provides organic nutrients for the lichen through photosynthesis and the lichen provides protection from drying out because the alga lives within the fungus's cell wall.
