Answer: 1- Maintenance of oncotic pressure: prot. are macromolecules that hydrate in the plasma and exert a PO retaining water in the vascular medium, all prot. mainly albumin

2- Buffer role: all prot. Plasma acts as a buffer because of their hydrophobic character thus participating in the regulation of acid-base balance

3- Transport function Albumin.Tyroxine binding protein (TBP), transferrin, apoproteins..etc.

4- Enzymes and coenzymes: renin, orosomucoid (coenzymes of LPL)

5- Role in coagulation and fibrinolysis: fibrinogen, thrombin. antithrombin

6- Role in immunity: Ig (lgA JgG.lgM) and complement proteins

7- Role in the allergic: IgE and complement fractions

8- Role in inflammation: α1 antitrypsin, orosomucoides .cerulioplasmin, cytokines, CRP

9- Hormonal role: insulin, glucagon, pituitary stimulins (TSH, FSH, LH)

10- And finally a structural role (such as actin or tubulin that participate in the architecture of the cell, the keratin that makes

In order for transcription to happen, DNA must

nalin [4]

Answer: Unwind

Explanation: Transcription is a process where a DNA strand is used to make a copy of mRNA. A complementary mRNA strand is made from the DNA strand. This mRNA is then later used to make proteins. In this process the junk information, present in DNA in form of introns is also spliced.

DNA is a double stranded structure, which is present in helical structure and both the strands are twisted together. In order to make the mRNA copy with the help of the enzyme RNA polymerase, DNA must open up. Then only RNA polymerase will be able to access the nucleotides of DNA.

Which of the following is an example of condensation in the water cycle? A. the formation of icebergs B. the formation of ground

Solnce55 [7]

The right answer is: D. the formation of clouds

Condensation is the second stage of the water cycle. The water vapor circulating in the atmosphere will encounter a colder air and it will turn into droplets, this phenomenon is called condensation.
Water droplets accumulate in the form of clouds of different shapes, density, and altitude. This phenomenon is called condensation. Water vapor travels on the surface of the earth in the form of clouds.

I just need help understanding the question a bit more

mash [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

So basically genes are made of DNA molecules. DNA molecules are the building blocks of genes.... if you think about legos for a second the building blocks of legos would be plastic right? because without plastic you don't have legos which is same here... genes are legos and DNA molecules are the plastic that make them (if you get my analogy).

So genes are the information carriers because they carry information on how to make a certain protein or express certain characteristics. Gene directs the cell to make certain proteins and proteins are the key players that are involved in many cellular process because they carry out major functions hence, the protein determine the function of cell because without protein the cell would have no function
