Answer:
<em>In biochemistry and pharmacology, receptors are chemical structures, composed of protein, that receive and transduce signals that may be integrated into biological systems</em>
Answer:
Among the seven characteristics in life, the one should be sensitivity. It is where living organisms detect and react to stimulus or changes to the environment.
Specifically among plants, this change is called a tropic response, or tropism for short. Plants reacts to aspects like light, gravity, or water.
This response is controlled by a plant hormone called auxin. Auxin is produced at the tip of the plant, and they diffuse among the plant. The auxin accumulates at the side of the plant that doesn't receive as much sunlight, and auxin can stimulate its growth on that side so the plant bends. That's how a plant bending works.
Anyways, the answer to the question should be sensitivity.
Answer:
Apoptosis does not involve:
c. lysis of the cell
Explanation:
Apoptosis is a programmed cell death that occurs under normal physiological conditions and in a controlled manner. Normally seen in cell turnover, embryogenesis, also involved in processes of immune, nervous and endocrine systems.
The main morphological and biochemical changes seen during the apoptosis are the fragmentation of DNA by endonucleases, nuclear, chromatin and cytoplasmatic condensation, apoptotic bodies formation (membrane bound-vesicles form of cell parts) and the phagocytosis (digestion) of those bodies by the scavenger cells.
Apoptosis is regulated by cell- signaling pathways, the caspases, a family of cysteine proteases, are the ones involved in the process.
In the process there is no lysis of the cell as this could lead to a inflammatory response (just happens in necrosis) which would affect contiguous cells, and will involve immune cells. In apoptosis there is just a membrane blebbing, but it does not loss its integrity.
Answer:
ATP production.
Explanation:
The result will be the production of ATP molecules if we place thylakoids in a beaker with a solution that mimics the chloroplast stroma in direct sunlight. The thylakoids are able to formed ATP in the dark because H+ gradient is required for ATP synthesis. The scientists find out that the light reactions were not necessary to establish the H+ gradient required for ATP synthesis by ATP synthase.
