Explanation:
The nerve cells in your body must constantly remove substances from the cell against the concentration gradient. What type of process most likely takes place to remove substances from a cell against the concentration gradient? Explain.
Answer and explanation:
Active transport refers to a procedure, which withdraws substances from a cell against the concentration gradient. During the process, the molecules move from low concentration to a high concentration.
The mechanisms of active transport need the application of the energy of the cell, generally in the form of ATP. If a substance needs to move within the cell against its concentration gradient, that is, if the substance's concentration within the cell is more than its concentration in the extracellular fluid, then the cell must utilize energy to move the substance.

Mitochondrion; crista Mitochondrion; crista Mitochondrion is a constituent part of crista. Crista is a constituent part of mitochondrion. Mitochondrion and crista are separate structures with no particular relationship to each other.
1. Mitochondrion; crista:
a. Mitochondrion is a constituent part of crista.
b. Crista is s constituent part of mitochondrion.
c. Mitochondrion and crista are separate structures with no particular relationship to each other.
2. Gobi complex; nucleus
a. Goo complex is a constituent part of nucleus.
b. Nucleus is e constituent part of Gobi complex.
c. Goo complex and nucleus are separate structures with no particular relationship to each other.
Answer:
1. b. Crista is s constituent part of mitochondrion.
2. c. Gobi complex and nucleus are separate structures with no particular relationship to each other.
Explanation:
The crista is an integral part of the mitochondria. As you already know, mitochondria is a cytoplasmic organelle. it has two members that delimit it, the outer membrane is completely smooth, however the inner membrane is composed of numerous folds, that are called crista, and that spread through the interior of the mitochondria. These crista have as main function to increase the surface of the inner membrane.
The Golgi complex is a cytoplasmic organelle, as is mitochondria. The nucleus, however, is a cell structure, it is totally separated from the golgi complex and there is no particular relationship between these two structures.
The golgi complex participates in the storage and distribution of substances in the cell, while the nucleus is responsible for housing and protecting genetic information.

e. kruppel (a gap gene)
f. even-skipped (a pair-rule gene)
1. Mutant fly F has predominantly lost abdominal structures, which is likely the result of a mutation in_____.
2. The wings are missing in mutant fly L, which is likely the result of a mutation in______.
3. Thoracic and abdominal structures are missing in mutant fly Q. The gene most likely responsible for this mutation is______.
4. Segment-sized sections of every other segment are missing in mutant fly Z. One likely candidate gene is_______.
5. Mutant fly X has lost the head and thorax. The gene most likely responsible for this mutation is_______.
6. The mutation observed in mutant fly O resulted in defects within the anterior or posterior regions of each segment. The gene that most likely caused this mutation is_______.
Answer:
knirps (a gap gene)
wingless (a segment-polarity gene)
kruppel (a gap gene)
even-skipped ( a pair-rule gene)
hunchback (a gap gene)
hedgehog (a segment-polarity gene)
Explanation:
The gap, segment-polarity and pair-rule genes play central roles in controlling embryonic development of arthropods. In the first place, the gap genes are associated with the formation of contiguous body segments, thereby mutations in these genes result in gaps in the normal body plan of the embryo. For example, in Drosophila melanogaster, mutations in the knirps, Krüppel and hunchback genes result in deletion of body segments. These genes are also known to regulate segment polarity genes, which determine the polarity of the embryonic parasegments by modulating Wnt and Hedgehog signaling pathways. Finally, the pair-rule genes work together with gap genes to control embryonic development of alternating body segments.

Explanation:
If a small drop of tiny particles such as pollen grains are dropped into a drop of water on a microscope slide, they will appear to vibrate and spread out. The primary reason for this is
Answer:
The primary reason is that the pollen grains are being struck by water molecules that move in different directions. These strikes fluctuate and sometimes are uneven.
Explanation:
This vibration and spread out of molecules in water is called Brownian Motion. It is the result of the collision of small particles of water with big particles of pollen. As the particles of water move randomly hitting different sides of the pollen particle, at times, there will not be a coordinated movement, but as the movement of water particles is random, there will be moments when one side of the pollen particle will collide with more water particles, when this happens there is an unbalanced force that makes the pollen particle moves in a direction.
The diagram shows animal and plant cells placed in 3 different types of solutions.
a) Name the 3 types of solutions taking inference from the picture above and explain the process taking place in A
b) When plant cell is placed in solution C, which part prevents it from bursting and how?
c) Name the process by which Amoeba obtains its food
This diagram shows vegetal and animal cells placed in solutions of different concentrations.
a)Solution A is called hypertonic because it has a higher concentration than the cell's cytoplasm. In the animal cell, it causes the water to diffuse out through osmosis. In the plant cell water is lost through the same process but the cell wall remains intact while the membrane reduces in volume.
Solution B is called isotonic because it has around the same concentration as the cytoplasm of the cell. It does not influence the volume of the cell.
Solution C is called hypotonic because it has a lower concentration than the cytoplasm. In the animal cell, it causes the cell to fill with water until it bursts(this process is called cytolysis). In the plant cell water diffuses through the membrane, but the cell doesn't burst.
b)Plant cells have a strong cell wall made of cellulose, hemicellulose and, lignin that prevents cytolysis.
c)Amoeba obtains its food through a process called phagocytosis in which the solid material is engulfed in a vesicle that enters the cell.
Plant cells have a strong cell wall made of cellulose, hemicellulose and, lignin that prevents cytolysis.
What do you mean by cytolysis?Cytolysis, or osmotic lysis, occurs when a cell bursts due to an osmotic imbalance that has caused excess water to diffuse into the cell. Water can enter the cell by diffusion through the cell membrane or through selective membrane.
Cytolysis or osmotic lysis occurs in animal cells and certain bacteria, especially when the cells are exposed to a hypotonic environment, causing the water to move into the cell, thereby increasing or expanding the cell.
When cells burst and die, their contents are released, causing inflammation. Every day, more than 50 billion cells die in our bodies. These are not random events, but part of a finely tuned biological mechanism called programmed cell death.

Describe the biosynthetic pathway that produces catecholamines such as norepinephrine and epinephrine from amino acid precursors and explain how the lack of available amino acids precursors would impact homeostasis regulated by catecholamines.
Answer:
Tyrosine and phenylalanine are amino acids required for the synthesis of catecholamines
Explanation:
The catecholamines are hormones composed of a catechol ring group (benzene) and an amine lateral chain. One of the most common catecholamines is the neurotransmitter norepinephrine (noradrenaline). The biosynthesis pathway of the norepinephrine hormone includes the following steps: 1-tyrosine hydroxylase produces L-DOPA from tyrosine, 2-L-DOPA is subsequently tranformed into dopamine by the L-amino acid decarboxylase, and finally, 3-this chemical precursor is converted into norepinephrine by the action of the dopamine β-hydroxylase.
Phenylketonuria is a congenital metabolic disease associated with a decrease in the metabolism of phenylalanine (Phe), which is an amino acid residue that acts as a precursor of different catecholamines including dopamine, norepinephrine (noradrenaline), and epinephrine (adrenaline). Dietary restriction of tyrosine and phenylalanine is the most common treatment against phenylketonuria.

How osmosis works in the three fluid compartments of the body
Answer:
Explanation:
In the body, water moves through semi-permeable membranes of cells and from one compartment of the body to another by a process called osmosis. Osmosis is basically the diffusion of water from regions of higher concentration to regions of lower concentration, along an osmotic gradient across a semi-permeable membrane.

Write your answer in the essay space.
Answer:
All organisms are composed of cells that share a structural organization and play roles in similar biological processes.
Explanation:
All living organisms can be grouped in terms of cellular organization, functioning, and structure. These features enable us to define them as “subjects” of life. Organisms share basic biological mechanisms such as, among others, growth, homeostasis, development, energy processing, reproduction, etc. Moreover, life is also defined by the presence of essential biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and lipids. Finally, the cell is considered to be the basic unit of every life form, and organisms may be formed by one (unicellular) or more cells (multicellular). The fundamental feature of the cell is the presence of a membrane that separates it from the external environment, thereby defining its internal environment.
What are the five senses? Type your brainstorm
Answer:
Sense: Smell, Taste, Touch, Sight, Hearing
Explanation:
Answer:
touch, sight, hearing, smell, taste
Explanation:
Touch is thought to be the first sense that humans develop, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Touch consists of several distinct sensations communicated to the brain through specialized neurons in the skin. Pressure, temperature, light touch, vibration, pain and other sensations are all part of the touch sense and are all attributed to different receptors in the skin.
Sight, or perceiving things through the eyes, is a complex process. First, light reflects off an object to the eye. The transparent outer layer of the eye called the cornea bends the light that passes through the hole of the pupil. The iris (which is the colored part of the eye) works like the shutter of a camera, retracting to shut out light or opening wider to let in more light.
hearing sense works via the complex labyrinth that is the human ear. Sound is funneled through the external ear and piped into the external auditory canal. Then, sound waves reach the tympanic membrane, or eardrum. This is a thin sheet of connective tissue that vibrates when sound waves strike it.
Humans may be able to smell over 1 trillion scents, according to researchers. They do this with the olfactory cleft, which is found on the roof of the nasal cavity, next to the "smelling" part of the brain, the olfactory bulb and fossa.
The gustatory sense is usually broken down into the perception of four different tastes: salty, sweet, sour and bitter. There is also a fifth taste, defined as umami or savory. There may be many other flavors that have not yet been discovered. Also, spicy is not a taste.

How do the products of meiosis compare to the original cell?
Answer:
Meiosis is the type of cell division in which a parent cell divides into four daughter cells. Meiosis generally occurs in the gamete or sex cells. The haploid cells are produced by the meiosis.
The original cell is diploid that contains the chromosome number (2X). The original is divided into the four daughter cell. The daughter cells produced by the meiosis contains the half chromosome number as compared with original cell (X). The crossing over occurs in meiosis and the daughter cells are quite different from the original cells.
Explanation:
If each NADH generates "3 ATP" molecules and each FADH2 generates 2 ATP molecules, calculate the number of ATP molecules generated from one saturated 18 ‑carbon fatty acid.
Answer:
90 ATP
Explanation:
Every acetyl-CoA yields 3 NADH and 1 FADH2
18 carbon fatty acid is known to have 9 Acetyl CoA.
1 acetyl CoA produces a total of 10ATP.
Since the 18 carbon fatty acid has a total of 9 Acetyl CoA then the total number of ATP produced is 9* 10 which results in 90 ATP being formed when it passes through the various reaction mechanisms.

g The pH of the space between the inner and outer mitochondrial membrane is ______________ the pH of the mitochondrial matrix.
Answer:
lower than
Explanation:
The protons obtained from the spit of hydrogen atoms, to protons and electrons, (which was transported to the Matrix of the mitochondria by NADH and FADH2 ) are pumped by PMF into the intramembrane space.
The constant pumps by the PMF,due to the electron transport chains set up high concentration of Hydrogen ions in the intramembrane space.If pH is -log[H+] then the high the number of H+/protons,the stronger the acidity,and lower the pH of the medium.
This set up higher electrochemical gradient compare to the matrix.Thus H+ diffuses down the gradients into the matrix.
This generate energy needed for the synthesis of ATPs by ATPase synthase in the matrix

Coal and petroleum products (fossil fuels) are a powerful resource of ___________ and energy. Following _________ plants and animals are buried and "stored" underground for millions of years leading to the formation of these byproducts.
Answer:
Carbon AND
DEATH
Explanation:
Carbon containing organic molecules derived from the remains of dead plants and animals on the earth million of years ago, buried deep under the sediment and rock layers are called Fossil fuels. Coal,oil,and natural gas are examples.
These underground deposits were formed million of years ago,due to the chemical reactions between relatively underground water molecules on one hand,and the earliest mic organisms viz algae,bacteria which inhabited the earth other hand.These decomposition occurred around 540 to 65milion years ago.
However,some million of later chemical reactions in the soil leads to compression of these remains underground.The degradation leads to formation of the fossil fuel precursor called Kerogen. With time Geothermal heat transforms the kerogen precursor to fossil fuel. some other kerogens are transformed to other natural gas,coal etc.
The Lannister’s family went to bed one frigid winter night and were found deceased the next day. A squirrel’s nest was found in their chimney. What happened to the Lannisters?
Answer:
They died due to suffocation.
Explanation:
The whole Lannister’s family died due to the shortage of oxygen in the room because of squirrel’s nest in the chimney. Chimney is the only way for the removal of toxic gases and smoke produced from the burning of wood. The squirrel’s nest block the passage and the smoke and toxic gases stay in the house which causes suffocation and the whole Lannister’s family died.
