<h3>ions must be able to interact with the charged regions of the cell membrane best describe the need for ion channels.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 /><h3>What is Ion channels?</h3>

Ion channels are specialized proteins in the plasma membrane that provide a passageway through which charged ions can cross the plasma membrane down their electrochemical gradient. The resulting ionic current, generated by the movement of charged ions through membrane channels, can be measured by patch-clamp methods.

Ion channels must be able to interact with the charged regions of the cell membrane so nutrients can enter the cell.

<h3>What are ion channels?</h3>

Ion channels are passages in the cell membrane that allow the passage of charged molecules such as

  • Sodium: Na+
  • Potassium: K+

Ions pass from one side to the other of the cell according to the electrochemical gradient. In other words, they go from a place with high concentration to one of low concentration. But to do this, they need to interact with the charged regions of the membrane, which are the ion channels.

Ions channels are one of the ways that nutrients enter the cell.

Which of the following statements is/are true of corals?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The correct answers are option A. "Corals are animals".  B. "Corals are benthic organisms"., and E. "Corals live in tropical water".

Explanation:

Corals are animals, what we know as a coral, is in fact a group of small animals called polyps that need food to survive. Corals are benthic organisms because they live at the bottom of the sea. The subclass of benthic organisms that corals belong is called Macrobenthos, for being large enough to be seen at the naked eye. Corals live mostly in tropical waters, because they do not tolerate waters with a temperature below 18 Celsius.

Answer:

Mendel's law of independent assortment

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel is a really important figure in genetics, his work on pea plants provided us with many of the fundamentals of genetics that we still have today!

Mendel proposed 3 laws:

1. The law of dominance - this law states that where there are two different alleles (heterozygous) the organism will always express the dominant trait over the recessive trait

2. The law of segregation - this law states that offspring will inherit one allele from each parent, because allele pairs separate in the process of meiosis, such that each gamete contains 1 allele of each trait. When the zygote is formed, it contains an allele from each parent.

3. The law of independent assortment - this law states that traits are independent from one another at the time of gamete formation. The genes are segregated separately from one another, as the presence of one does not impact the presence of another.

This example shows that all combinations of the height and color allele are possible, and therefore nicely demonstrates the law of independent assortment
