Answer: Cells have receptors because Receptors let the cell know when to let things in and out of the cell.

Explanation:

Cell receptors also called transmembrane receptors are proteins located on the surface of a cell (extracellularly) or inside the cell which receive signals that alters the functions of the cell. The functions of the cells which can be altered includes the alteration in gene transcription and the cell morphology.

Cell receptors are generally categorizes into the following groups:

--> Internal receptors

--> cell surface receptors

--> ion channel receptors

--> G protein coupled receptors

--> enzyme linked receptors

Interaction of cell membrane receptors with specific ligands that bonds to the receptors causes conformational changes in the receptor protein. This in turn, enzymatically activates the intracellular part of the protein or induces interactions between the receptor and the proteins in the cytoplasm that act as second messengers, thereby relaying the signal from the extracellular part of the receptor to the interior of the cell. This enables the cell to know when to let things in or out of it through the information conveyed.

A wheel of mass 4kg is pulled up a plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal by a force of 45N applied to the axle and parallel to
Len [333]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Let's assume the wheel does not slip as it accelerates.

Energy theory is more straightforward than kinematics in my opinion.

Work done on the wheel

W = Fd = 45(12) = 540 J

Some is converted to potential energy

PE = mgh = 4(9.8)12sin30 = 235.2 J

As there is no friction mentioned, the remainder is kinetic energy

KE = 540 - 235.2 = 304.8 J

KE = ½mv² + ½Iω²

ω = v/R

KE = ½mv² + ½I(v/R)² = ½(m + I/R²)v²

v = √(2KE / (m + I/R²))

v = √(2(304.8) / (4 + 0.5/0.5²)) = √101.6

v = 10.07968...

A fourth-grade teacher wants to ensure students understand the life cycle process of plants. The teacher decides to incorporate
Annette [7]

Answer:

There are several options that the teacher can use to incorporate the concept into students' understanding.

Explanation:

1. The students can draw all the plants that they know.

2. Children can be asked to bring the flowers to school so that they can identify the plants themselves.

3. The children can plat the flowers in makeshift pots and then take the best plants and transplant them in the garden or elsewhere.

4. The children can take occasional trips and observe and record any changes to the plants.

4. The teacher can ask the students to draw the flowers and emphasize on the productive parts like the stamens, leaves, pistils, stems.
