Answer:

food molecules become digested once there is a concentration gradient to drive diffusion, the nutrients need a path across the membrane. fats and fat soluble nutrients can move directly across the lipid membrane. water, gasses ane other very small molecules can diffuse through the pores of the cell.

if a mutation occurs in the somatic tissue, approximately how many of the gametes will carry the mutation?
Mrac [35]

None: Only those mutations that occur in the germ line and result in gametes will have a chance of being passed on to progeny. An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception.

Somatic mutations can occur in any of the body's cells except germ cells (sperm and egg) and are therefore not passed on to children. These alterations can (but not always) cause cancer or other diseases. Mutations in somatic cells are called somatic mutations. Because they do not occur in the cells that give rise to gametes, the mutation is not transmitted to the next generation sexually. Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs and 2 sex chromosomes that may or may not form a pair. This is the 2n or diploid condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, each of 23 unique chromosomes, one of which is a sex chromosome. Somatic cells are the cells in the body other than sperm and eggs (called germ cells). In humans, somatic cells are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Mutations in a somatic cell occur in somatic cells and are transmitted by mitosis, resulting in cancer. However, mutations in a gamete are passed on by meiosis, resulting in mutated offspring. A genetic mutation occurs during DNA replication, and chromosomal mutations occur during meiosis.

In cells, genes are segments of DNA that code for proteins; not sugars or complex carbohydrates, or lipids, but proteins. The co
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Proteins are involved in almost every function of cell and inside the body and each protein is specific for its role. Some of them are  

1) Protein constitute major part of structure of cell. Proteins are major constituent of cell membrane along with lipids.  

2)  Enzymes which are proteins in nature catalyze all the important chemical reactions inside and outside the cell e.g transporting material across the cell, synthesizing and repair of DNA

3) Hormones which are proteins play important role in the regulation of metabolic reactions inside the cell

4)  Regulation of cell division is performed by DNA-associated proteins  

5)  Proteins plays important role in storage of iron inside the cells

6) Proteins can be stored as fats inside the body and used as energy when needed by cells for its metabolic activities.
