Answer:

Diabetes is a condition in which your blood glucose, often known as blood sugar, is abnormally high. Your main source of energy is blood glucose, which comes from the food you eat. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, aids glucose absorption into cells for use as energy.

Which of the letters above best models a molecule of water moving into the membrane via an aquaporin?​
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Letter B.

Explanation:

Aquaporins, also known as "water channels," are the main transport of water through the membranes of plant, animal, and bacterial cells. These channels allow the water to travel into and within cells and, at the same time, exclude the passage of ions and solutes.

What makes letter B the correct answer, is the form of transport and shape of the channel that allow water according to the osmotic gradient. In this model, letter A shows simple diffusion, while C and D seem to illustrate gated channels.

Compare and contrast the extracellular matrix of animals and the cell wall of plants. Consider their functions and the types of
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The plant cell wall is strengthened by the molecular structure of cellulose. Cellulose is made up of ß-glucose arranged upside down, this arrangement aided hydrogen bonds between the hydrogen ions of the  hydroxyl group and oxygen of the of the ring   of same  betta -glucose.

The aggregation of the hydrogen  bonds give bundles of  strong tensile  strength of cellulose called the  microfibrils (of 60-70 celluose molecules).They are  held together in bundled called fibers.T<u>hese is the source of  plant cell walls  strength. </u>

<u />

Collagen is the main extracellur matrix (EM) in animal cells.It is a glycoprotein made up of 25%of body protein of animals.Each collagen molecule is made of helix shaped ,three polypeptide chains, wound around each other to form<u> triple helix.</u>The bonds  holding helix together are hydrogen and covalent bonds.

Each triple helix is attached to adjacent collagen molecule, parallel  to it. The covalent bonds formed a cross link which held  the collagen molecules together forming FIBRILS.  This gives flexibility to collagen, while maitaing strong tensile strength. This is what is responsible for the structural strength of cell membrane .

.The  EM,is  futher reinforced with  carbohydrate molecules(proteoglycans) which<u> aided in water movements by  osmosis following  sodium movements into the matrix.</u>
