Answer:
the answer is: A) growth of actin filaments to form bulges in the plasma membrane.
Explanation:
Amoebas are unicellular organism that can move on a surface using pseudopodia (false feet). This kind of movement is called amoeboid movement. The amoeboid movement is explained by the Sol-gel theory. The protoplasm of the amoeba is made of an outer gelatinous layer, and an inner portion made up of plasma sol. The sol-gel theory explains the contraction and relaxation events in the protoplasm of the amoeba that lead to the pseudopodia.
Answer:
Explanation: The sugar and phosphate group make up the backbone of the DNA double helix, while the bases are located in the middle. A chemical bond between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar of a neighboring nucleotide holds the backbone together.
Answer:
Protein - WHITE
Gene - <em>white (italics)</em>
Phenotype - white
Explanation:
Usually, in genetics, to make it clearer whether the gene, protein, phenotype, mutation, etc. are being talked about, different styles are used. These actually differ between different organisms which makes it even more confusing!
Usually, the gene name is denoted in italics, and the protein is in capital letters. The phenotype is always written as normal.
They are different because one is stronger than the other
Answer: Life would cease to exist.
Explanation:
The carbon elements is one of the most important elements in the compound that make up living organisms. It is found: in the remains of living organisms; as fossil fuels such as coal, coke and natural gas; as inorganic salts such as carbonates; in water bodies and as gas carbondioxide which makes up 0.03% of air.
Carbon is continuously being circulated in the atmosphere through a process called the CARBON CYCLE. This involves the removal and addition of carbon to the carbondioxide in the atmosphere.
Life would indeed cease to exist if this carbon cycle stops due to the importance of carbon to functioning of living organisms. Important processes which bring about the recycling of carbon between living ( biotic) and non living (abiotic) components of an ecosystem are:
--> photosynthesis: the process used by green plants to remove carbon through carbondioxide from the atmosphere for manufacturing of their food.
--> respiration: animals respire to break down sugar leading to liberation of carbondioxide and water as wastes
--> and decay: decomposers feeds on remains and waste to bring about decay, thus complex carbon compounds are broken down to set free carbondioxide which returns to the atmosphere.
All the above processes are carried out by living organisms to maintain a functioning ecosystem by enabling a linear flow of energy through it.
