The correct answer is "neurons".
Neurons are nerve cells which connect to each other using synapses and form neural networks. They exhibit high levels of specialization and are the primary components of the central nervous system.
Myofibrils are contractile fibers which form the striated muscle cells. Sarcomeres are the structural unit of the myofibrils.
Answer:
(b) Voltage gated
Explanation:
The cell membrane acts as a barrier that separates two aqueous media of different composition, the extracellular and the intracellular, regulating its composition. Most of the liposoluble drugs and solutes, when not ionized, directly cross the cell membrane through a passive diffusion process, which facilitates the passage of the medium where it is more concentrated to the one that is more diluted. The difference in concentration between the two media is called the concentration gradient, and diffusion will continue until this gradient is eliminated. According to Fick's law, the speed of this process will be much faster the higher the concentration gradient and the liposolubility of the molecule and the smaller its size.
More hydrophilic molecules, such as ions, are immiscible in membrane lipids and pass through specific specific transport mechanisms. In some cases, ions pass through hydrophilic pores called ion channels, and in others a favor of their concentration gradient is transported by binding to the transporter or transporter proteins. Both transport systems are passive and therefore do not consume energy. The great advantage is that the ion channels allow the flow of ions through a much higher speed than that of any other biological system. The flow of ions through each channel can be measured as an electric current, which is capable of producing rapid changes in membrane potential.
Answer:
A and E are the correct.
Explanation:
Examples of the structures that determine function:
a) <u>Chloroplasts </u>only found in plant cells. They work to fix the CO2 in the presence of <u>light energy</u> (sunlight) and convert the reactants into <u>sugar molecules (carbohydrates</u>) that can be used by cells for metabolic functioning.
e) <u>Sperm</u> is the male reproductive cell. Motile sperm cells have a tail-like structure that typically <u>move via flagella</u> and requires a water medium in order to swim toward the egg <u>for fertilization</u>.
Other options are not correct because <u>they don't explain their function according to their structure</u>.
The answer is (A) stabilizing selection. Stabilizing selection favors the average in a population. In this case, babies that are born at a normal body weight, or an average between the two extremes of underweight and large, tend to have more favorable outcomes.
The sole reason why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins is that red blood cells lack DNA and cell organelles such as nucleus, ribosomes and mitochondria which are crucial for protein synthesis, assembly and repair. In other words they lack both the information and the machinery for making or repair of proteins.
Due to lack of DNA and cell organelles, red blood cells cannot be able satisfy the central dogma which summarizes synthesis of proteins as DNA → RNA → proteins.
DNA has the genetic information on how proteins should be made, RNA is responsible for transferring the information from DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, then translating or decoding this information, which results in the making of protein.
