Answer:
b) Channel pumps
Explanation:
The channels are the transmembrane proteins that serve in the passive transport of substances down the concentration gradient. The channels can be gated or non-gated. The gated channels are opened and closed in response to certain stimuli such as electrical change.
For example, aquaporins are the gated water channels that transport the water across the plasma membrane. The process is driven by the osmotic gradient and does not use the energy of ATP.
Answer:
An artificial heart is a prosthetic device that is implanted into the body to replace the original biological heart. It is distinct from a cardiac pump, which is an external device used to provide the functions of both the heart and the lungs. Thus, the cardiac pump need not be connected to both blood circuits.
Explanation:
Answer:
Epidermal cells secrete the waxy hydrophobic substance cutin that polymerizes on the surface, forming a barrier to water evaporation. Epidermal cells are transparent because their plastids remain small and undifferentiated; hence light readily penetrates through to the photosynthetic tissues beneath the epidermis.
Explanation:
Craftsmanship is not part of mass production.
I think it is the secondary ovarian follicle that contains the secondary oocyte.The stages of the ovarian cycle that the follicle will go through includes; a primary follicle contains an oocyte and begins producing estrogen. Then the secondary oocyte contains a secondary oocyte and produces estrogen and some progesterone, then the graafian follicle develops and the secondary oocyte is released a process we call ovulation. the corpus luteum produces progesterone and some estrogen and lastly the corpus luteum degenerates.
