You are studying a cloned line of neuronal cells that grow in culture and form synapses with a cloned line of muscle cells. Thes

e synapses use serotonin as the neurotransmitter, and you have determined, that, as expected, these neuronal cells synthesize serotonin from tryptophan. Using sophisticated molecular cloning techniques, you have isolated the genes for two serotonin transporters, called TransA and TransB, which are expressed in these neuronal cells. A preliminary immunofluores- cence localization of fixed and permeabilized cells found very bright staining of TransA at the nerve cell plasma membrane and little staining elsewhere. TransB, in contrast, stained only very faintly at the nerve cell plasma membrane, but there was intense staining within the cytosol.
Required:
In which subcellular membrane or organelle would you expect most of the TransB to be found?

Answer:

Explanation:

TransA can be found in the plasma membrane, while TransB is found in the cytoplasm, according to the immunofluorescence localization test analysis. There are two main varieties of serotonin transporters in the neural system when it comes to serotonin signaling.

  • An intracellular transporter that carries and delivers serotonin throughout synaptic vesicles.
  • A transmembrane transporter that prevents hyperactivity overstimulation by re-uptaking serotonin from the synapse.

Therefore, suppose we compare this signaling pathway model to the analyzed experimental test. We can vividly acknowledge that TransA acts as a serotonin reuptake transporter since it is present in the plasma membrane of nerve cells and TransB is a serotonin vesicle transporter that is present and located in the cytoplasm. As a result, the majority of TransB is speculated to be present in synaptic vesicle membranes.

What two characteristics do fungi lack that forced them to become decomposers?? Please help :) **25 points**
Tamiku [17]
Fungi lacks the ability to produce their own food because they do not have chloroplast which is needed to obtain energy from the sun and convert it into food. Also fungi lack ability to fix nitrogen which has to be incorporated into their food. They also can not fix carbon and utilize it to produce food. Because of these they have to depend on dead organic matters for food.

what is the defining characteristic of eukaryotic cells? what types of organisms have eukaryotic cells?
solniwko [45]

Answer: What is the defining characteristic of eukaryotic cells? Put these in your own words.

Eukaryotic cells are defined by the presence of a nucleus containing the DNA genome and bound by a nuclear membrane (or nuclear envelope) composed of two lipid bilayers that regulate transport of materials into and out of the nucleus through nuclear pores.

What types of organisms have eukaryotic cells?

There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae. Eukaryotes may be either single-celled or multicellular.

suppose a persons stomach wall was irritated by an over-secretion of stomach acid. why do you think a person would take milk of
il63 [147K]

The pH of stomach secretion is low. This means it is acidic. Too much production can corrode the stomach wall. Therefore in such a situation drinking a basic solution with a higher pH neutralizes some of the stomach acidic secretions hence relieving the effect;

Acid + Base - Salt + Water

What reasoning correctly pairs a body system with its relationship to the digestive system?
Elodia [21]

excretory system: removes waste from blood.

respiratory system: obtains oxygen so the energy in the nutrients can be extracted.

circulatory system: transports nutrients from small intestine to the othet tissues.

nervous system: regulates and controls digestive functioning.
