Answer:

A huge number of chemical reactions take place continuously in a living cell. The whole of all chemical processes, that is, the total turnover of matter and energy is called metabolism.

Explanation:

All organisms need the energy to grow, reproduce, and respond to their surroundings. All these processes are achieved through metabolism that allows the energy available to them.

____________ is translated by the ribosomes and contains the code that specifies the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide ch
HACTEHA [7]

mRNA (Messenger RNA) is translated by ribosomes and contains the code that specifies the sequence of amino acids in polypeptide chain.

A single-stranded ribonucleic acid molecule is known as messenger RNA(mRNA) plays a major role in <u>translation</u>.

Translation is the method by which an mRNA codes for a certain protein. mRNA provides the template for<u> protein synthesis</u>.

The ribosome translates the mRNA that is produced from the DNA into a chain of certain amino acids and<u> protein synthesis</u> is facilitated by this <u>amino acid</u> sequence.

<u>The genetic code</u>, which connects the DNA sequence to the amino acid sequence of proteins, is used to "read" the mRNA. Each group of three nucleotides in mRNA forms a codon, and each codon corresponds to a particular amino acid (triplet code).

Thus mRNA contains the code that specifies the<u> sequence of amino acids</u> in a polypeptide chain.

Cells must be alive to use energy and do work dose passive transport occur in a cell that is dead? Why or why not?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

<h3>Yes, Passive transport can occur in dead cells.</h3>

Explanation:

For passive transport to occur, a concentration gradient has to be formed across a permeable or semi-permeable membrane. If the cell membrane of the dead cell, which is a semipermeable membrane, is intact and a concentration gradient has formed on both sides, passive transport can occur.

A concentration gradient is the difference in the concentration of solute molecules  across the membrane. Passive transport will allow solute molecules to travel from the higher concentration of the solute to the lower concentration across a membrane till equilibrium is reached, that is, both the sides of the membrane has equal concentration of the solute.

The transport of the solvent can occur as well, from higher concentration to lower concentration.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

c. Increased reabsorption of phosphate in the kidneys

d. Increased deposition of calcium into the bones.

Explanation:

Hyperphosphatemia is a condition that is expressed particularly in people with a kidney dysfunction. It comprises the kidneys, which do not excrete enough phosphate from the body as they reabsorbe it and thus leading to increased phosphate levels.

Also, phosphate binds calcium with high affinity, provoking acute hypocalcemia (decreased levels of calcium). In Hyperphosphatemia, calcium is being deposited mostly in the bone but also in the extraskeletal tissue.

In terms of communication, information is expressed either as the content of a message or through direct or indirect observation. That which is perceived can be construed as a message in its own right, and in that sense, information is always conveyed as the content of a message.

Information can be encoded into various forms for transmission and interpretation (for example, information may be encoded into a sequence of signs, or transmitted via a signal). It can also be encrypted for safe storage and communication.
