The cell membrane is ----------in nature
a. Highly permeable b. normally permeable c. not permeable d. partially permeable

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. partially permeable

Explanation:

The cell membrane is the cellular organelle that covers and bounds all cells. It forms a boundary around a cell, protecting all other organelles. The cell membrane, according to the FLUID MOSAIC MODEL, contains phospholipid bilayer, proteins etc.

The phospholipid (lipid) content of the cell membrane confers its ability to be SELECTIVELY OR PARTIALLY PERMEABLE upon it. It is said to be partially permeable because it allows the passage of some molecules/substances and blocks the passage of others.

Nanotechnology is a field of producing materials and devices from atoms and molecules.

Explanation:

Nanotechnology is a field that concerned with producing materials and devices from atoms and molecules. A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter in size. Nanotechnology can be used to “recognize” the cells of interest which allows associated drugs to reach diseased tissue without damaging healthy cells. Nanotechnology produces new and faster kinds of computers, more efficient power sources and more effective medical treatments. Main disadvantages include threats to security, privacy, health and the environment. More research must be done in this field to get more benefits from it.

how do genes create traits in a organism

Answers

Answer:

Like chromosomes, genes also come in pairs. Each of your parents has two copies of each of their genes, and each parent passes along just one copy to make up the genes you have. Genes that are passed on to you determine many of your traits, such as your hair color and skin color.

Sally, 9-year-old girl, just did an awesome backflip on her trampoline. Instead of landing in a similarly awesome manner, she miscalculated and landed on her neck. Sally stood up with pain in her neck and does not appear to be able to extend her left arm very well. An x-ray shows a fracture of her C6 vertebrae that is compressing down on her C7 vertebrae impacting the spinal nerve located between C6 and C7 vertebrae. Which spinal nerve did Sally likely injure

Answers

Answer:

The C7 spinal nerve

Explanation:

The C7 spinal nerve exits on each side through the intervertebral foramen between the C6 and C7 vertebrae. The C7 spinal nerve has both a sensory root which is composed of sensory fibers and a motor root. This nerve is required to control motor functions including shoulder movement (i.e., adduction, abduction and rotation). The C7 dermatome is a region of skin that receives sensory inputs from the C7 spinal nerve.

The role of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) in RNA interference is to cleave tRNAs to slow the rate of translation. disrupt gene expression by cleaving mRNAs that are complementary to the guide strand of the RNA duplex that was introduced. cleave the introduced RNA duplex. disrupt gene expression by interfering with mRNA export to the cytoplasm. create a passenger strand to bind to the mRNA and keep the mRNA from being translated.

Answers

Answer:

disrupt gene expression by cleaving mRNAs that are complementary to the guide strand of the RNA duplex that was introduced

Explanation:

The RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) is a ribonucleoprotein complex composed of proteins that associate with regulatory small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) such as, for example, microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in order to regulate gene expression by the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. These sncRNAs (around 18-30 nucleotides in length) are complementary or nearly complementary to messenger RNAs, thereby they can bind to target mRNA sequences in order to trigger RNAi via mRNA degradation, translational repression, etc. The core component of the RISC complex is an evolutionary conserved Argonaute (Ago) protein that cleaves target mRNAs.

Answer:

C. produced from magma.

D. formed at Earth’s surface

Explanation:

Earth crust refers to the outermost layer or thin shell which makes up the earth such as sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks.

The Earth crust is typically made up of two (2) main types;

1. Oceanic crust: this crust has a thickness ranging from 5 km to 10 km and comprises of denser rocks such as diabase, gabbro and basalt.

2. Continental crust: this crust has a thickness ranging from 30 km to 60 km and comprises of minerals such as quartz, silicate, feldspar, aluminum and less dense rocks such as granite

An igneous rock has a coarse texture and is dark in color. Also, an igneous rock can be accurately described as being produced from magma and formed at Earth’s surface.
