Pancreatic cells, which secrete a large amount of digestive enzymes, are labeled with radioactive leucine and then chased for se
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

A pulse-chase experiment which is used to study the cellular process taking place in the cells. This uses the labelled molecule which is incorporated into the cellular pathway and then the unlabeled molecules are used over time to determine how much time is required by the unlabeled molecule to replace the labelled molecule.

In the given question, the pancreatic cell which secretes the digestive enzyme known as the acinar cell is labelled with the leucine and then used unlabeled leucine.

When observed after three hours, the black spots will appear on the exterior of the cell as the protein has been synthesised by the ER and now has been secreted from the cell.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Which statement about endotherms and ectotherms is correct?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

3.  Endotherms spend more energy on internal temperature regulation compared to ectotherms.

Explanation:

Ectotherms, are considered  as cold-blooded animals (reptiles and amphibians),  and are organisms that don't have the ability to generate enough heat to keep themselves warm. Endotherms, in contrast, do possess the ability to generate their own body heat.

Endotherms also called warm blooded animals  (mammals) have the ability to regulate their body temperature by themselves. If the endotherms are in a cold place their body increases the metabolism and generates more heat. This will compensate for the cold outside.
