Answer:
B
Explanation:
The net movements of water from the region of higher water potential to the region of low water potential through a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. It is a form of diffusion which involves the transport of water molecules.
In this present scenario water molecules pass through the selectively permeable membrane from higher water potential in the body, to lower water potential but high solute potential (Epsom salts). The later is called an hypertonic solution,this is because it has higher solute potential ,thus higher salt concentration than the surrounding medium,therefore water pass by osmosis into the Epsom salts.
If one is placed in this solution,the cells shrink as they lose water to the more concentrated Epsom.(hypertonic solution)
However, the body homeostatic mechanism through the kidney ensure re-absorption of fluid back to the body from the DCT and CT, via anti diuretic hormone to preserve the cell and the person.
1) C
A population has to be isolated for speciation
2) D
Different species are incapable of reproducing with one another
3) D
When a population is contained, the recessive alleles can become dominant within the population
1 wait what 2 i think A or D
1. The correct answer is: The viral envelope proteins interact with CD4 and a co-receptor on the cell membrane.
Binding and entering the host cell are the first steps of the HIV virus infection. So, these steps play a major role in determining the ability of HIV to degrade the human immune system. Binding of HIV to CD4+ T lymphocytes (express chemokine receptors CCR5 and CXCR4 called co-receptors) triggers the fusion of the viral and host cell membranes, initiating infection (viral core gets into the cytoplasm).
Attachment of the virion can be:
• Nonspecific-envelop protein of the virus (Env) binds to cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans
• Specific-Env binds to integrin.
2. The correct answer is: Activation of the host cell by cytokines, growth factors, or antigens.
After the viral capsid enters the cell, single-stranded RNA genome is released from the attached viral proteins and copied it into a complementary DNA (cDNA) molecule thanks to an enzyme called reverse transcriptase. Next step is the integration of the viral DNA into the host cell's genome. This process is done by another viral enzyme called integrase. The integrated DNA is transcribed into RNA and then translated into proteins that will help the package of new viruse particles.
3. The answer is: false
Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of DNA from an RNA template. Since the genome of the virus (HIV) is single stranded RNA, reverse transcriptase copies it into a complementary DNA (cDNA) molecule. Thanks to this enzyme, formed cDNA can be integrated into host’s genome. Because of this proprety, antiretroviral drugs used to treat HIV infection work as reverse-transcriptase inhibitors.
Answer:
Animals store glucose in the form of glycogen. Glycogen is a polysaccharide stored mainly in the liver and skeletal muscles.
