What part of the cell is selectively permeable and critical for maintaining homeostasis?

Biology
1 answer:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The cell membrane

Explanation:

One way that a cell maintains homeostasis is by controlling the movement of substances across the cell membrane. The lipid bilayer is selectively permeable to small, nonpolar substances. Proteins in the cell membrane include cell-surface markers, receptor proteins, enzymes, and transport proteins.

Silvia has blond hair, even though her mother and father each have brown hair. What do we know about Silvia's parents? At least
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Each of her parents must have one recessive gene for blond hair color

Explanation:

  • Blond is a recessive trait
  • Since Silvia is blond this means she has both copies of the recessive gene for hair color
  • Therefore, both her parents have a recessive gene for blond hair and passed it down to her.
  • The parents don't have blond hair because their dominant gene for browns masks the recessive gene for blond.

What happens when the s phase cannot enter the g0 phase?
Shtirlitz [24]
<span>The importance of the G0 phase is that during cell division when the cell get a signal that there are enough of cells (not more required) or there is a mutation in the cell that need to be fixed before they differentiate fully or the cell during its division gets damage then it is signalled to rest, and it is this phase that cell leave the cycle and quit dividing. It could be temporary resting period (so when cell again required, or damaged got fixed) then the cells will again join the cycle and continue to divide again or it can also be permanent for example neurons, which are resting in G0 phase and never divides again.</span>

In the early 1900s a scientist hypothesized a link between DNA and the production of proteins in the cytoplasm. However, the fac
Vladimir [108]
Let us go over the definitions and the functions of each term:
a) Gene is a bit vague but in general it means a part of DNA that encodes one protein. Genes are the building blocks of our genomes but not the answer to this question.
b)mRNA. This is correct. The name itself means messengerRNA and its role is to copy the genetic information in the nucleus and bring it outside to be translated into protein.
c) ATP is an important molecule in our metabolism; energy is stored in this molecule and then used. It has no relationship to the mechanisms concerning DNA.
d) Thymine is one of the 4 nucleotide bases that are found in DNA, the other three being guanine, cytosine and adenine. They are essential components of a nucleotide (building blocks of DNA and RNA) but again, they do not transfer information out of the nucleus.
