There are 2 types of transport mechanisms that involve the movement of materials across the cellular membrane:
1. Passive Transport Mechanisms which is the movement of materials that does not require energy. Instead the movement relies on the permeability of the cell. Under this are three kinds of passive transport mechanisms:
a. Simple Diffusion:
- the movement of materials from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration. No external energy is necessary for the movement. The materials supply the energy themselves.
b. Facilitated Diffusion:
- This differs from simple diffusion because the movement is facilitated by proteins that make up the structure of the membrane. The proteins include channel proteins that allow ions and smaller molecules to cross the membrane. The other protein are the carrier proteins, which bind to materials like sugar molecules and move it across the membrane.
c. Osmosis:
- This is the diffusion of water across the membrane. Osmosis moves water from regions where there are more water molecules of water per volume to regions where there are less water molecules per volume.
2. Active transport on the other hand is a movement mechanism that requires energy. It uses the energy to send materials against the direction it is coming from through simple diffusion. This mechanism is used in a way to keep unwanted ions or other materials out of the cell.
Answer:
Sorry I can't understand anything
Industrial melanism is an evolutionary effect prominent in several arthropods, where dark pigmentation has evolved in a habitat affected by industrial pollution, including sulphur dioxide gas and dark soot deposits.
There are five classes of antibody.
1) <span>IgA (immunoglobin A)
2) IgD (immunoglobin D)
3) IgE (immunoglobin E)
4) IgG (immunoglobin G)
<span>5) IgM (immunoglobin M)
They form Y shaped antibodies. The crystallized fragment is the stalk of the Y shaped antibodies. The bond formed by this stalk will determine the form of the antibody. One Y is called monomer, two connected Ys are called dimers, and 5 connected Ys are called pentamers.</span></span>
Answer:
The correct answer is option b. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
Explanation:
The GnRH or the gonadotropin-releasing hormone is a releasing hormone that releases from the neurons of the hypothalamus. This releasing hormone is responsible for the secretion of the luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone.
GnRH regulates both gonadotropin hormones, in which, LH (luteinizing hormone) responsible for the regulation of the male reproductive system and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) responsible for the female reproductive system and sperm production in testes in males.
Thus, the correct answer is option B. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
