The translocon (commonly known as a translocator or translocation channel) is a complex of proteins associated with the translocation of polypeptides across membranes.[1] In eukaryotes the term translocon most commonly refers to the complex that transports nascent polypeptides with a targeting signal sequence into the interior (cisternal or lumenal) space of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from the cytosol. This translocation process requires the protein to cross a hydrophobic lipid bilayer. The same complex is also used to integrate nascent proteins into the membrane itself (membrane proteins). In prokaryotes, a similar protein complex transports polypeptides across the plasma membrane or integrates membrane proteins.[2] Bacterial pathogens can also assemble other translocons in their host membranes, allowing them to export virulence factors into their target cells.[3]

Answer:
"Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. ... A food chain can usually sustain no more than six energy transfers before all the energy is used up." By the way this is from the internet but from what I read it should be false mark brainllest if you want.
Explanation:
Muscle cells are divided into two groups, striated muscle and smooth muscle. Striated muscle cells are characterized by protein arrays that form stripes. Smooth muscles don't have these striations or stripes and appear unmarked when viewed through a microscope.
Muscle cells form muscle tissue, and three types of muscle tissue are found in the human body: smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle. The movement of smooth muscle is an involuntary process, meaning the muscle contracts and relaxes without conscious thought.
Cardiac muscle is similar to smooth muscle but is only located within the heart. This tissue is also controlled by involuntary processes. Cardiac muscle tissue doesn't contain nerves, but electrical impulses pass through the tissue causing involuntary responses.
Skeletal muscles are attached to bones in the body and are controlled through voluntary movements. When you do a push-up, flex your biceps, turn your head or scratch your nose with a finger, skeletal muscles are performing these tasks through voluntary movements.
Answer:
Atoms and molecules of gas move from areas of high density to areas of low density and from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. ... The warmer air at the equator is less dense than the cold air of the poles. Thus, the air from the poles tends to flow toward the equator (toward the area of lower density).
