Answer:
Aquaporins acts as water channels that conduct water to and fro cell membrane during osmosis
Explanation:
Osmosis is a type of cellular transport in which water moves from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane. The osmotic process occurs with the aid of selective protein channels called AQUAPORINS. They allow only the passage of water and prevent that of ions and solutes.
Aquaporins help in the osmotic process by creating a channel for the passage of water molecules across the membrane. In other words, aquaporins facilitate the speedy movement of water molecules across membranes via osmosis, which is normally slow due to the POLARITY OF WATER MOLECULES.
Answer:
Prokaryotes.
Explanation:
Most of the Eukaryotes most likely to evolve from the Prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are basically unicellular organisms that lack internal membrane-bound structures. So, they do not carry nucleus and generally have a single chromosome. Most of them have a cell wall outside the plasma membrane, which is a thin layer of lipid that completely surrounds the cell. Prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission method.
This would depend on if the other parents has it or not. If they do not, they have a 50/50 chance that the trait will become recessive. That said, it could still be passed on to the child's kids in later generations.
The right option is; d. consumers
All animals are consumers
Consumers are organisms that usually feed on other organisms or organic matter in order to gain energy because of their inability to manufacture their food from inorganic sources. All animals are consumers and they are also known as heterotrophs. There are different types of consumers. They include; primary consumers (herbivores e.g. goats, cows), secondary consumers (carnivores e.g. wolves, crocodile), and tertiary consumers (large carnivores e.g. eagle, lion)
People who have leukemia, a cancer that affects white blood cells, are often given Cytrabine. This drug inhibits the synthesis of DNA.
S-phase of cell cycle is most affected by Cytrabine because cytrabine interfers with synthesis of DNA and we know that in S-phase of cell cycle synthesis of DNA takes place.
