If a Roman nose (N) is dominant and a straight nose (n) is recessive, what is the phenotype for the genotype 'nn'?

Suppose that life exists elsewhere in the universe. all life must contain some type of genetic information, but alien genomes mi

Snowcat [4.5K]

<span>While alien genomes may be constructed by completely different molecules (for example, silicon based life forms are a possibility rather than carbon) it is logical to assume that all life forms would have some sort of protective mechanism to prevent the degradation of DNA during replication. Essentially, to prevent mutations and rapid aging, DNA, alien or otherwise, would have some types of telomeres. They might either be long chains of repeated or irrelevant code or molecules that would not be easily corrupted.</span>

Which kind of organism does not generally require oxygen or sunlight to live?

gregori [183]

Answer is A.

Archaea requires neither sunlight for photosynthesis as do plants, nor oxygen. Archaea absorbs CO2, N2, or H2S and gives off methane gas as a waste product the same way humans breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. An example is chemosynthetic bacteria by sea drifts. They use chemical energy to produce vital processes to live.

Why should the general public be concerned about the survival of honeybees

Westkost [7]

Answer: honeybees are one of the most important pollinators in the world, we do have others but without bees many crops, and plants will die and that will result in animals dying.

The structure of the cell membrane allows it to be selectively permeable. What is the name for the larger, brown structure in th

Anika [276]

Explanation:

B) protein channel

Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backone) with up to 36 carbons.

Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. Via <em>diffusion,</em> small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds. The hydrophilic heads of the bilayer are attracted to water while their water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins.

Carrier proteins (also called carriers, permeases, or transporters) bind the specific solute to be transported and undergo a series of conformational changes to transfer the bound solute across the membrane. Transport proteins spanning the plasma membrane facilitate the movement of ions and other complex, polar molecules which are typically prevented from moving across the membrane.
Channel proteins which are pores filled with water versus enabling charged molecules to diffuse across the membrane, from regions of high concentration to regions of lower concentration. This is a passive part of facilitated diffusion
