I'm pretty sure that the benefit would be that fermentation allows the possibility for reproduction
The student is wrong. Phosphorylation
cascade is important in cell signaling. Most cell signaling involves cyclic AMP (synthesized from
ATP). The cAMP activates Protein Kinases (PKA)
that phosphorylates protein
substrates involved in the signaling pathways
such as the GPCR. This helps in amplifying the initial signal.
<span><span>A. </span><span>Fats would be the correct answer. For an organism to have energy, fats are burned when the cell diet does not consist of the fat needed from the food intake. Fats are necessary in order to transport other nutrients. Some vitamins are even fat soluble which means they need fats in order to be transported. Such vitamins are A, D, E, and K. Fats also provide protection for the vital organs from pressure and change in temperature by providing proper insulation and cushion. It also helps regulate body temperature.</span></span>
Simple diffusion is the concept of a substance moving from an area of high concentration to a lower concentration without energy input. Because the plasma membrane is made of lipids which are non-polar, this membrane readily allows non-polar substances to diffuse through easily. If a substance has a charge like that of an ion, it will be difficult for the ion to cross the plasma membrane through simple diffusion. The answer should be B.
