Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are: a. cytoplasm b. golgi body c. mitochondrion d. ribosome e. vacuole

The answer is Golg body/apparatus

Explanation:

Proteins are synthesized in the ribosomes after a gene has successfully undergone transcription and translation processes. However, the synthesized protein needs to undergo sorting, modification and packaging before it finally leaves for its final destination. These process of sorting, modification and packaging is conducted by an organnelle called GOLGI APPARATUS. The modified protein is then transported via transport vesicles to their respective target locations or organs where they will be used.

The illustration in the question here is similar to the above explanation. Cacao beans are the proteins produces from gene expression. They arrive in the factory, which is the Golgi apparatus in this case and undergo sorting and packaging. After this processes, they are later put into large trucks, which are the transport vesicles, and transported to a commercial chocolate company (target location/organs) which they are used.

Answer:

See the answer below.

Explanation:

The arrival of cacao beans in the factory can be likened to the transcription of mRNA using a DNA template.

Sorting of the best beans at the factory can be likened to splicing process. During splicing, the introns are removed from the newly synthesized mRNA and the exons are joined together. The introns represent the non-coding portion of the mRNA while the exons represent the coding sequence.

The checking of bags by quality control can be likened to the final proofreading of the mRNA after splicing before being transported to the cytoplasm where they are used to synthesize proteins.

The large truck that transports the cacao beans represent the transport proteins that transport the mRNA to the cytoplasm while the chocolate-producing company represents the ribosome which is the site of protein synthesis.

Describe the change which will occur if a piece of peeled potato is placed in a concentrated sugar solution and explain why this
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Through the process of Osmosis, water will move from a region of high water potential ('concentration') to low water potential. Therefore, water will slowly leave the cells of the potato and enter the sugar solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium and the potato will therefore lose mass.

In a short essay (100-150 words), describe Darwin's view of how natural selection resulted in
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Charles Darwin was the man who came with the theory of natural selection. He witnessed finches within the Galapagos Islands and made notes on the similarities and differences of the finches across the group of islands. Each of the islands comprises finches, which were identical, however distinct in different ways.  

Darwin found that the finches appeared to vary on the basis of the food sources available on each of the islands. If the prime food were seeds, the finches seemed to possess thicker beaks in order to break the seeds so that they can consume them.  

On the other hand, if the prime food sources were insects, then the finches seemed to exhibit smaller and pointer beaks so that they could hold the insects readily. In this way, there is unity in diversity. All of these birds are finches and exhibited a common ancestor from which they have originated into the distinct species as mentioned.  

Their variations lie in the habitats, in which they now inhabit. They had to amend with their environments in order to thrive, thus, offering diversity to unity.

How are gasses exchanged in the alveoli
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The alveolar walls and capillary walls share a membrane. That's how close they're getting. This allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to readily pass from the respiratory system to the circulation. Oxygen molecules bind to red blood cells as they return to the heart.
