Plants and fungi both have cell walls.

Fungi are more like animals because they are heterotrophs, as opposed to autotrophs, like plants, that make their own food.

Name the 6 roles of proteins in the body.
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: 1. Repair and Maintenance

Protein is termed the building block of the body. It is called this because protein is vital in the maintenance of body tissue, including development and repair. Hair, skin, eyes, muscles and organs are all made from protein.

2. Energy

Protein is a major source of energy. If you consume more protein than you need for body tissue maintenance and other necessary functions, your body will use it for energy. If it is not needed due to sufficient intake of other energy sources such as carbohydrates, the protein will be used to create fat and becomes part of fat cells.

3. Hormones

Protein is involved in the creation of some hormones. These substances help control body functions that involve the interaction of several organs. Insulin, a small protein, is an example of a hormone that regulates blood sugar. It involves the interaction of organs such as the pancreas and the liver. Secretin, is another example of a protein hormone. This substance assists in the digestive process by stimulating the pancreas and the intestine to create necessary digestive juices.

4. Enzymes

Enzymes are proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions in the body. In fact, most of the necessary chemical reactions in the body would not efficiently proceed without enzymes. For example, one type of enzyme functions as an aid in digesting large protein, carbohydrate and fat molecules into smaller molecules, while another assists in the creation of DNA.

5. Transportation and Storage of Molecules

Protein is a major element in transportation of certain molecules. For example, hemoglobin is a protein that transports oxygen throughout the body. Protein is also sometimes used to store certain molecules. Ferritin is an example of a protein that combines with iron for storage in the liver.

6. Antibodies

Protein forms antibodies that help prevent infection, illness and disease. These proteins identify and assist in destroying antigens such as bacteria and viruses. They often work in conjunction with the other immune system cells. For example, these antibodies identify and then surround antigens in order to keep them contained until they can be destroyed by white blood cells.

In some chickens, the gene for feather color is controlled by codominance. The allele for black is B and the allele for white is
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, it lacks the main questions, those questions are:

a. What is the genotype for black chickens?

b. What is the genotype for white chickens?

c. What is the genotype for erminette chickens?

Explanation:

This question involves a gene coding for feather colour in some birds, in which the black allele (B) and white allele (W) is involved. According to the question, the gene coding for feather colour exhibits co-dominance i.e. both the black (B) and white (W) allele are expressed in a heterozygous state (BW) to form an erminette phenotype.

Hence, if the neither alleles is dominant or recessive over the other. The black phenotype will only be expressed when the genotype is BB.

The white phenotype will only be expressed when the genotype is WW

The combination of both alleles which results in the simultaneous expression of both in the erminette phenotype, will be BW genotype.

Evolutionary theory has become the central organizing principle of biological science. Could this scientific theory ever become
sveta [45]

The answer requires looking at the meaning of the words 'theory' and 'law'. The formal definition of a theory is that it is a comprehensive explanation of a observed phenomenon supported by a lot of evidence. Law is a fact that is bound to be true in nature, example Newton's second law. However, a theory is subjected to continuous refinements based on the several new findings that happen with time. These refinements make the theory appear incomplete. As with the theory of evolution, a lot of research work is being put to understand the complex phenomenon of genetic inheritance of traits of behaviour. Unless there are evidences from nature for all the aspects of evolution in theory, it'll remain a theory and not become a law.

Answer is A) Yes, if scientists decide that enough evidence supports the theory.
