Answer:

When an organism excretes or dies, nitrogen is in the form of organic nitrogen in its tissues (e.g. amino acids, DNA). During the ammonification process, many fungi and prokaryotes then break the tissue down and release inorganic Nitrogen into the atmosphere as ammonia.

Explanation:

Plants use their roots for nitrogen compounds. When they consume the seeds, animals acquire certain chemicals. When plants and livestock die, or animals excrete waste, the organic nitrogen compounds return to the soil, where microorganisms known as decomposers break down their compounds.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

<h2>EGFR will activate other proteins without dimerization, causing uncontrolled cell growth.</h2>

Explanation:

EGFR gene :

Epidermal growth factor receptor,

-which spans the cell membrane so that one end of the protein remains inside the cell and the other end located outer surface of the cell. This causes receptor to attach ligands, and to receive signals ,by which cell respond to its environment. Epidermal growth factor receptor binds to many different type of receptors. The binding of a ligand to receptor allows the receptor to attach to another nearby epidermal growth factor receptor protein (dimerize), activating the receptor complex. As a result, signaling pathways within the cell are triggered that promote cell growth and division and cell survival. If there is abnormlty in the expression of EGFR gene , then the cell show uncontrolled growth.

Help please!!!!! It's 2.

Since a lot of people like to litter and not clean up around their community, it would attract rodents (mice, rats, raccoons). Also, bugs and insects (like cockroaches) would be attracted to the trash in the area. If there are rats then, something must eat them. This means that cats would be apart of this community. Humans naturally like to settle where water is so, fish would also be something to consider as your answer.
