Explain the role of the cell membrane during passive transport and active transport

Biology
1 answer:
irinina [24]3 years ago
5 0

<em>Membrane proteins that aid in the passive transport of substances do so without the use of ATP. During active transport, ATP is required to move a substance across a membrane, often with the help of protein carriers, and usually against its concentration gradient.</em>

Which CNS neuroglial cells remove cell debris, wastes, and pathogens by phagocytosis?
marin [14]

Answer:

Microglial cells

Explanation:

Microglial cells are one of the various types of neuroglial cells in the central nervous system. Microglial cells are the small cells and have thin slender processes. Many spine-shaped outgrowths come out of these processes. Microglial cells serve as phagocytes of the central nervous system. These cells clean the cellular debris that is generated during the normal development of the nervous system. Microglial cells also perform phagocytosis of microbes and damaged nervous tissue.

Describe how biogeographical studies, esp. of islands and continents, explain species similarities and differences
Elan Coil [88]
Biogeographical studies use information for various fields, such as evolutionary biology, geography, geology, and climate science to determine how organisms evolved through time and how the moving of tectonic plates resulting in forming continents, mountain ranges and islands has affected their distribution.
Studies in this field explain how organisms that now live on different continents are very closely related and how the flora and fauna of islands are connected to one of the closest continents etc.

What are the building blocks (subunits)of each biomolecule?
Mamont248 [21]
<span>The four biological macromolecules are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acid. These macromolecules are known as polymers and are built when monomers join together by a process known as the dehydration reaction. The dehydration reaction is a chemical reaction that produces water (H2O) and the result is the covalent bonding of the two monomer molecules. The monomer molecules consist of nutrients found in the soil, as in the case of plants, and the intake of food as in the case of animals.

swat32
<span>Mature tRNA has an amino acid binding site at one end and the other end interacts with the mRNA by complementary base pairing due to the presence of an anticodon. An anticodon is a three nucleotide sequence which is complementary to the triplet codon of mRNA which specifies a protein for synthesis.</span>
