How have freshwater and salt water fish adapted to deal with osmosis in their respective environments?

Biology

DaniilM [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Salt water fish are perfectly adapted to their salty environment and need osmosis to live. The replacement fluid taken on to replace the lost water is desalinated by a process known as diffusion. Diffusion allows fish to live in a state of constant osmosis

The preferential use of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic leaflet of membranes leads to incre
spayn [35]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: The preferential use of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine in the cytoplasmic leaflet of membranes leads to increased:___ would be, D: All of the answers are correct.

Explanation:

There is still a lot of debate among scientists as to the exact way in which phospholipids are distributed between the two leaflets of a cell´s plasma membrane, but what they do know is that there are four kinds, and that phosphatidylinositol (a sterol) and phosphatidylethanolamine appear most commonly on the cytosolic, or cytoplasmic side of the membrane. They also believe that it is this particular arrangement which allows the cytoplasmic side of the membrane to be slightly negatively charged and this role will play a major part in a membrane´s ability to generate an action potential. Also, it is known that these negatively charged ends of the bilayer will allow certain proteins, positively charged ones, to be inserted, and connected to it, to become transporters, or mediators in action potentials and normal activities of cells. Finally, since fatty acids and cholesterol are associated with phospholipids, but have a tendency to be attracted to these particular two types, they tend to give the overall structure fluidity, but also permit  the inner leaflet to assume its particular circular shape around the cytoplasm. This is why the answer is D.

Which of the following options correctly describes the behavior of a tetrad during anaphase 1 of meiosis?
Svet_ta [14]

The answer is; C

Homologous chromosomes have the same genes on the same loci. However, they may have different forms of the same gene called alleles. These sister chromosomes, of a homologous pair, separate during anaphase I of meiosis. The two daughter cells formed will, therefore, have half the genetic material as the parent cell. This is because they will only have one set of the genes (as in diploid organisms) and are called gametes.

Which Biome?
yarga [219]

Answer:

More organisms are present on location A.

Explanation:

Due to more yearly precipitation, there is more vegetation present on location A. Due to the presence of this vegetation, more organisms are present because there is more food available for organisms as compared to location B. Due to less precipitation, there is less or no vegetation is present on location B and organisms are present in less number due to harsh environmental conditions and no food availability for organisms.
