Answer:
The given statement is true.
Explanation:
A channel protein refers to a protein, which permits the conduction of particular substances like small molecules or ions through the cell membrane. They perform this task either through the process of active transport or facilitated diffusion on the basis of the concentration gradient or due to the variation in the concentration of components outside and within the cell membrane.
Answer:
fixed action pattern, key stimulus; key stimulus, fixed action pattern
Explanation:
- An innate behavior which specific to a species and is highly stereotyped is termed as a fixed action pattern.
- This behavior occurs due to a neuronal network that is hard-wired in the species and the response is said to be generated following a key stimulus.
- A key stimulus is the one that generates a fixed action pattern and this is also called a releaser.
- A key stimulus can be in the form of shape, sound, color, or a combination of these.
- In this case, the red spot is a stimulus for the chicks which causes them to peck at their parent's bill, and hence, the red spot is a key stimulus, and pecking of the chicks is a fixed action pattern.
- The parents regurgitate the food only when the chicks peck at their bills, so pecking is a key stimulus for the parents which causes them to regurgitate the food which is a fixed action pattern.
Transmitted, vertical
A transparent specimen is viewed through a microscope using transmitted light while an opaque object requires vertical illumination.
Transmitted light is the light that passes through an object. Transmitted light microscopy is any kind of microscopy in which the light is transmitted from a source located directly across the specimen from the objective. The light is commonly passed through a condenser in order to focus it on the specimen to obtain very high illumination. After the light passes through the specimen, the image of the specimen moves through the objective lens and later to the oculars where the enlarged image is viewed.
Answer:
A couple of examples
<u>amylase</u>: break down starch into sugar.
<u>protease</u>: break down proteins into amino acids.
<u>lipase</u>: break down lipids (fats and oils) into fatty acids and glycerol.
