Photosynthesis I know that I took the test
Answer:
The correct answer is D. involves proteins in plasma membranes.
Explanation:
Animal cells have several types of proteins embedded in their cell membrane. These proteins play an important role in the transport of molecules, cell recognition, and cell communication.
Recognition proteins are a type of glycoproteins present in the plasma membrane that allow one cell of the body to recognize the other body cells by making contact with recognition proteins of other cells. Receptors proteins allow cell-cell communication by receiving extracellular proteins.
These proteins are important for proper growth and development of the cell. Therefore the correct answer is D. involves proteins in plasma membranes.
1. Suzie's hypothesis (i.e. prediction of results) is that ferns which are placed in white light will grow to a taller height after two weeks than ferns which are placed in other coloured light or in a closet.
2. Her independent variable (the thing she changes to produce a result) is the kind of light that she places each plant in.
3. The dependent variable (the thing she measures) is the height of the plants after two weeks.
4. I would say her control group would be the plant placed in the closet, because every other group is exposed to some form of light.
5. I would say that Suzie has 4 experimental groups: white, red, blue, and green light.
6. The constant variables were the amount of water each plant was given, the initial height of the plants, the age of the plants, the species of fern, and what she planted the ferns in.
7. To determine how each fern did, Suzie could measure the height in addition to noting the appearance of all the plants. E.g. did any look paler than the others?
Scientist study index fossils so they will get an understanding of what life was like back then.
