What's the difference between human skin and the cell membrane !! I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST

Biology
1 answer:
Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Read explanation

Explanation: there’s no similarity at all. A cell membrane is made of phospholipids, globular proteins, glycolipids, glycoproteins, and cholesterol, and has passages that serve explicitly for passive and active transport of materials through it.

The skin is made of cells and dead keratin and serves as much as possible to prevent most substances from moving through it. It’s “designed” for toughness and distensibility, not for selective permeability.

Light alerts the biological clock to slow down the secretion of which hormone that promotes sleep
Kaylis [27]
Light alerts the biological clock to slow down the secretion of melatonin hormone that promotes sleep. Melatonin hormone is a hormone that is produced by the pineal gland in animals and regulates sleep and wakefulness. . The hormone is used to regulate night and day cycles or sleep-wake cycles, darkness causes the body to produce more melatonin, which signals the body to prepare for sleep.

Classify the following organisms into their respective kingdoms
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

  1. Yeast - Fungi
  2. Penicillium - Fungi
  3. Rhizobium - Monera
  4. mushroom - Fungi
  5. Amoeba - Protozoan
  6. fish - Animalia

Explanation:

The Fungi Kingdom is a kingdom composed, as the name says, of fungi, which are organisms represented by many species, among them: yeasts, mushrooms, molds, Penicillium and others. As you already know, fungi are eukaryotic and multicellular organisms (with the exception of yeasts).

The monera kingdom is the kingdom formed by bacteria and also has several species as members. Among these species we can mention the Lactobacilli, Escherichia coli, Rhizobium (nitrogen-nodulating bacteria, very important for the natural fixation of nitrogen in legumes), among others.

The kingdom of protozoa is very diverse and even has an organism that does not have any type of genetic, structural and morphological similarity, but in most cases, the members of this kingdom are heterotrophs, eukaryotic and unicellular organisms. An example of this is amoebas.

The animal kingdom is made up of all animals, the most diverse and populous kingdom. All animals belong to that kingdom, including fish.

The rate of firing of the postsynaptic neuron depends on the amount of ______ input it receives from the presynaptic neuron.
AysviL [449]

The postsynaptic potential is the membrane potential, which takes place in the neuron present post synapsis (after the chemical synapse). The presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitter, which causes the firing in the postsynaptic neurons.  

The firing of the post synaptic neuron depends on the excitation and inhibition inputs received from the presynaptic neuron. The firing is the resultant of the summation of excitatory and inhibitory potential. In case, the excitatory potential is greater than inhibitory potential, the post synaptic neuron would be excited. in case, inhibitory potential is greater than excitatory potential, then the post synaptic neuron would be inhibited.  


Hence, the correct answer is option d.
