Answer:

Diatoms have two distinct shapes: a few (centric diatoms) are radially symmetric, while most (pennate diatoms) are broadly bilaterally symmetric. A unique feature of diatom anatomy is that they are surrounded by a cell wall made of silica (hydrated silicon dioxide), called a frustule.

nata0808 [166]

A mutation in human ATPase 6 from leucine to arginine at position 156 may allow the movements of protons across the membrane, but not rotating of the ring of c subunits.

 This possible mechanism affect the function of ATP synthase because there would be an uncoupling of proton translocation and ATP synthesis. ATP synthase would remain sensitive to F0 proton conduction inhibitors

What are the functions of the larynx and how does it carry out them on a daily basis?
MArishka [77]
The larynx is an nicknamed the "voice box" because it holds the vocal cords inside. It helps change the pitch and volume of our voices as we speak. It is the only part of the body capable of doing this job, so we don't ever want it removed. Our voices would be much more monotone sounding. The larynx connects the pharynx to the trachea in the neck. It is also capable of allowing air through for us to breathe, but does not let anything (food or drink) block the airway. This is obviously a daily function since we eat and drink numerous times daily and usually have no problems breathing while eating and drinking. This is thanks to the larynx.

Hope this helps! :)
