You eat a french fry. As you chew and swallow, some of the particles go down the ‘wrong tube' (the trachea), and this causes you

to cough. The specialized hair-like cell structures that detected this particle in your trachea and triggered the coughing response are called __________, and are an example of cell specialization, and how structure depends on function.

Propose an explanation for why operons evolved in prokaryotes. what advantage do organisms have when they group genes together w
astra-53 [7]

Operons afford the organism the opportunity to simultaneously regulate transcription of multiple genes, whose products are active in the same process.  Operons lead to the synthesis of groups of functionally related enzymes, usually from a single mRNA transcript hence makes regulation of the genes highly efficient.

A second action potential cannot be generated until ________.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

"Action potential is a rapid rise and subsequent fall in voltage or membrane potential across a cellular membrane with a characteristic pattern."

It is the mode through which a neuron transports electrical signals.

Explanation:

  • Option - (a) is the best choice to choose from,
  • <u>The refractory period :</u>

A second action potential cannot occur until the membrane has recovered or reestablished, this is the refractory period. The absolute refractory period coincides with inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels which makes it impossible to generate another nerve impulse.

Which part of the cell is affected by the movement of molecules through diffusion, osmosis and active transport?
kolezko [41]

Ans.

Diffusion, osmosis, and active transport are mechanism of cellular transport that involves movement of molecules through plasma membrane. Diffusion shows movement of small, hydrophobic particles without the help of protein molecules through cell membrane along the concentration gradient.

Osmosis involves movement of water molecules against concentration gradient (from an area of high solvent concentration to an area of low solvent concentration) through cell membrane.

Active transport shows movement of particles, against the concentration gradient, means from a region of higher to lower concentration of molecules through cell membrane. It involves transport through membrane proteins.

Thus, the part of cell, which is affected by the movement of molecules through osmosis, diffusion, and active transport is cell membrane or plasma membrane.
