Please hurry!!!!!!What 2 criteria determine passive transport?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of passive transport depends on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, depends on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins. The four main kinds of passive transport are simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration, and/or osmosis.

Red blood cells carry oxygen to all cells and carbon dioxide away from all cells.
They travel through all the blood vessels of the circulatory system, including the
microscopic capillaries which connect arteries to veins. How does the design of a
human red blood cell fit its function?
The shape or design of a blood cell matches its function by...

Answers

Answer:

Biconcave shape

Explanation:

A red blood cell has what is known as a biconcave shape. Both sides of the cell's surface curve inward like the interior of a sphere. This shape aids in a red blood cell's ability to maneuver through tiny blood vessels to deliver oxygen to organs and tissues.

O The human and horse are the most closely related organisms with the fewest differences in their amino acid sequences.
O The monkey and gorilla are the most closely related organisms with the fewest differences in their amino acid sequences.

Answers

Answer:

d

Explanation:

d

The monkey and gorilla are the most closely related organisms with the fewest differences in their amino acid sequences. Hence option d is correct.

What are amino acid?

Amino acid is defined as any of the elements present in both plants and animals that come together to produce a substance (protein), which is essential for a healthy body and for growth. The metabolism of amino acids plays a crucial role in many biological processes that take place inside the human body.

An examination of the first complete sequence of the gorilla genome suggests that humans and gorillas last coexisted 10 million years ago. The gorilla is the last of the surviving great apes, including humans, chimpanzees, orangutans, and gorillas, whose entire genetic sequence has been compiled.

Thus, the monkey and gorilla are the most closely related organisms with the fewest differences in their amino acid sequences. Hence option d is correct.

10. Deafness in cocker spaniels is inherited. The allele for deafness (d) is recessive to the allele for hearing (D). Two cocker spaniels that are heterozygous for hearing are mated together. What is the chance that a puppy will be deaf?

Question 10 options:
0%
25%
50%
100%

Answers

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

If they are both heterozygous, it means they both have a Dd genotype. If you draw out a punnet square Dd x Dd you end up with the following possible genotypes for the puppy:

DD, Dd, Dd, dd

In order for the puppy to be deaf, it must be dd since deafness is recessive, which is 1/4 (25%)

The chance that the puppy will be deaf is 25%. The correct option is B.

What is allele?

The term "allele" refers to the alternative form or versions of a gene. People inherit one allele for each autosomal gene from each parent, and we tend to categorize the alleles.

We usually refer to them as normal or wild-type alleles, or abnormal or mutant alleles.

If they are both heterozygous, they have the Dd genotype. As per the Punnett square Dd x Dd, one can see the the following genotypes for the puppy:

DD, Dd, dD, dd

Because deafness is recessive, the puppy must be dd, which is 1/4 of the population.

Thus, the correct option is B.

What are similarities and differences between the structures of DNA and RNA?

Answers

Answer:

The similarities and differences between DNA and RNA are given as follows:

Explanation:

Similarities:

Both are made up of nucleotides

Nucleotides are made up of nitrogenous bases, a pentose sugar, and the phosphate backbone.

Both DNA and RNA have four nitrogenous bases each - two purines two pyrimidines

Purine binds with pyrimidines

Differences

DNA uses the nitrogenous bases adenine, cytosine, thymine, and guanine whereas RNA uses adenine, cytosine, uracil, and guanine. Uracil lacks a methyl group on its ring

RNA contains the sugar ribose that has an extra -OH while DNA contains the deoxyribose sugar that has H at the 2 carbon.

DNA is double-stranded while RNA is a single-stranded

Under alkaline conditions, DNA is stable while RNA is not stable.
