Physical change. Boiling water does not change the fundamental properties of the water, as it can turn back into water during condensation.
Answer:
Explanation:
A keystone species is the one which plays an important role in maintaining the structure of the ecosystem. On the keystone species many other species of the ecosystem are dependent upon.
The potential effects associated with the keystone species includes the following:
1. No other species will be capable of filling the same ecological niche. Hence, the dependent organisms will suffer and the ecosystem will change drastically.
2. The ecosystem will be populated by the invasive species which will affects the population of native species.
Answer:
Explanation:
Proteins in the plasma membrane have several functions based on their components, location etc. For instance, if the protein transcends the entire plasma membrane it could be a transport protein, responsible for the import and export of certain molecules between the cell and the extracellular matrix (ECM). If the proteins are resting at the surface of the cell, facing the ECM, their role could be to detect components in the ECM, relaying a series of messages back to the nucleus so that the cell can ‘decide’ what it should do with this information (is it being told it should undergo apoptosis, should it begin to divide, should it migrate?). As well as this, it could be involved in the detection of foreign bodies such as pathogens. This is an extremely job for these proteins because if the cell does come in contact with a pathogen, the cell can use these proteins to engulf the pathogen and through a series of steps, present the antigen on their major histocompatibility complexes (either 1 or 2 depending on the cell type) or HLA’s for human cells. Thus it can be concluded that protein functions vary widely in the plasma membrane and due to the vast number of proteins that can be found there, it’s difficult to narrow down the exact main of functions of all these proteins put together.
Yea they actually can and l<span>iving things that are composed of one cell are known as unicellular organisms. Examples of unicellular organisms include amoebas, bacteria and certain fungi. Unicellular organisms are either prokaryotes or eukaryotes.</span>
