Lipid Bilayer.A plasma membrane is made up of Lipid Bilayers, which consists of polar phosphate heads, which are hydrophilic or water loving, and non-polar fatty acid tails, which are hydrophobic. Proteins are embedded in the membrane as well.Cell membranes are known to have holes, or selective permeable.
Answer:
Whereas superficial flexors in the anterior compartment of the forearm originate from the medial epicondyle of the humerus, the superficial extensors in the posterior compartment of the forearm originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
Explanation:
The forearm has 2 compartments: an anterior compartment responsible for the flexion of the wrist, and a posterior compartment with the function to extend the wrist.
The superficial muscles in the anterior compartment arise from the common flexor tendon that originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. This compartment is mostly innervated by the median nerve.
The superficial muscles in the posterior compartment originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and are innervated by the radial nerve.
The ulnar nerve innervates the flexor carpi ulnaris and flexor digitorum profundus in the forearm.
Answer:
c. YACs
Explanation:
YACs, the Yeast artificial chromosomes are the high capacity vectors designed to carry the eukaryotic genes and carry the insert of 200-2000 kb.
YACs carry origin of replication from yeast, selectable markers and sequences derived from telomeres and centromere to maintain the stability of the insert during cell division.
The insert size for plasmids, bacteriophage, PACs, and cosmids is about 0.1-10 kb, 5-25 kb, 100-300 kb, 35-45 kb respectively.
Sweating is the body's way of cooling itself. If you did not sweat, you could overheat the body and collapse from heat exhaustion.
