both ethanol and glycine are small molecules of approximately equal molecular weight. However, ethanol is much more membrane permeable than glycine. What accounts for the large difference in membrane permeability between ethanol and glycine

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ethanol is a non polar molecule.Therefore it passes through the cells membrane easily by diffusion like other non polar like CO2 and water.However, glycine is an amino acid ( the simplest amino acid) a charged molecule /polar molecule/.it can not therefore pass through the bilayer by simple diffusion because of the phospholipid bi-layers. Therefore special transport proteins are needed for its passage across the cell membrane.

Example-GLYT 1 and 2 are the carrier proteins  specific for glycine transport across the membrane.

Amanda hates her new student ID photo. Her hair looks dry, the extra weight she's gained shows, and her neck looks fat. Amanda's also been feeling very tired and mentally dull. Amanda goes to the clinic where you are working. You draw her blood. The test results show her T4 levels are low and her TSH levels are low. Later she is given a TSH stimulation test in which TSH is injected and the T4 levels are monitored. After TSH injection her 14 levels rise. A) Does Amanda have problems with her pituitary or with her thyroid gland? B) How did you come to your conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

A) Pituitary Gland B)By analysing the given observations in the question.

Explanation:

THS, thyroid stimulating hormone, is an hormone produced by the pituitary gland and in return it stimulates the thyroid gland that produces hormones such as T3 and T4.

We can conclude from the given information that Amanda's thyroid gland does not have a problem with producing and secreting the T3 and T4 hormones when THS is present in her body.

But the low THS levels show that the problem is with her pituitary gland causing her to have low levels of THS.

We can reach this decision by analysing the given information.

I hope this answer helps.

Hitchhiker's thumb is inherited via two recessive alleles and causes a hyperextensibility of the thumb. The dominant allele causes a straight thumb phenotype. Predict the phenotypic and genotypic ratios from the following cross.

One parent with Hitchhiker's thumb crossed with a Straight thumbed individual who had a parent with Hitchhiker's thumb.

a. Phenotypic and Genotypic 1:1
b. Phenotypic 2:1 and Genotypic 1:1
c. Phenotypic 1:1 and Genotypic 2:1
d. Phenotypic and Genotypic 3:1

Answers

Answer:

a. Phenotypic and Genotypic 1:1

Explanation:

Two recessive alleles are required in order to be phenotypically affected for Hitchhiker's thumb. Hence, the genotype of the parent with Hitchhiker's thumb would be homozygous recessive.

Assuming the trait to be represented by the allele h, the genotype of the parent with Hitchhiker's thumb would be hh while the genotype of an individual with straight thumb who had a parent with Hitchhiker's thumb would be heterozygous, Hh.

Crossing the two individuals.

                        hh   x   Hh

Progeny:     Hh    hh    Hh    hh

Hh - Straight thumb

hh - Hitchhiker's thumb

Hence, the genotypic ratio is 1:1 while the phenotypic ratio is also 1:1.

The stimulus interval has a profound effect on the contraction force of the muscle. In your own words explain what happened when the muscle was stimulated in rapid succession. At which interval did the volunteer's muscle twitches begin to merge together (summate)

Answers

Answer:

The skeletal muscle is stimulated by means of action potentials that are caused by the neuromotor plate. These action potentials are one after the other and can become cumulative once the muscle fibers pass the refractory phase of the action potential.

The refractory stage is that stage in which action potentials are not admitted, therefore where the muscle fibers do not accept stimuli to contract.

Once this refractory stage is over, more action potentials can be admitted, which would be summative and the muscle fiber would contract with greater power.

Explanation:

If a muscle is repeatedly stimulated, the contraction will be weaker or the muscle will fatigue more easily, triggering muscle failure.

If the muscle is stimulated with a longer pause between contraction and contraction, the action will be performed with more power.

Scenario: You are a research scientist and are working with eukaryotic cells obtained from a newly discovered organism, Oviductus oblatus. You want to determine if this organism’s cells are similar in structure an organization to other eukaryotic cells. You collect the cells and examine them using a light microscope and a cell stain in an attempt to see the internal cellular structures. Lo and behold you are happy because you are able to see particular structures using this method. You find the following features: Organism’s cell are able to move Internal structures appears to be made of protein fibers Internal structures protein fibers measured 7.0 nanometers diameter Internal structures protein fiber appears to be two strands intertwined with each others Based on this information you come to the conclusion that you have been able to identify in these cells the structure of ____. You conclude the cells of Oviductus oblatus are indeed (name the main type of cell it appears to be) ______ cells. Discussion: Post your answers for the above scenario and include evidence that supports your choice

Answers

Answer:

Based on this information you come to the conclusion that you have been able to identify in these cells the structure of microfilaments or actin filaments. Oviductus oblatus are indeed eukaryotic cells

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, the cytoskeleton is composed of three well defined filamentous structures: microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments. Each of these filamentous structures is a polymer of proteinic subunits united by weak, not covalent connections.

The microfilaments are the thinnest of the three structures. They have a diameter of 7 nanometers and are composed of many proteinic monomers united. This monomeric protein is called actin. Many monomers get combined to form a structure that assembles a double helix.

Due to the fact that these microfilaments are made of actin monomers, they are also known as actin filaments.

Actin filaments have directionality which means that their extremes have different structures.

In eukaryotic cells, genes that codify for actin microfilaments are highly conserved in all organisms, which is why they are often used as molecular markers for different studies.

Answers

Answer:

E

Explanation:

E because....

The other options mention species that occupy niche environments and would therefore definitely not be randomly dispersed. Rushes and frogs would be found along the edges of water bodies, squirrels would be found within appropriate environments, which would be acorn tree forests and orchid plants also occupy a particular tree.

The correct option is E.

What is random dispersion?

In random dispersion, individuals are distributed randomly, without a predictable pattern. An example of random dispersion comes from dandelions and other plants that have wind-dispersed seeds.

Is random dispersion rare?

In natural populations, random dispersion is rare, while clumped dispersion, which we'll focus on in this lesson, is the most common pattern. Clumped dispersion is often due to an uneven distribution of nutrients or other resources in the environment. It can also be caused by social interactions between individuals.

what is is a specific version of a gene on a homologous chromosome that has a corresponding version of a similar gene on a homologous chromosome. For example, hair color gene (ie. red from mom) will be on one homologous chromosome and a possibly different version of hair color gene (ie. black from dad) will be on the other corresponding homologous chromosome.

Answers

Answer:

This statement is partially true.

Explanation:

There are many phenotypic features that display a quantitative mode of inheritance and exhibit a continuous range of variation.  Hair color is controlled by different genes that work together to express this trait. In consequence, this trait has a polygenic mode of inheritance, where a particular phenotype depends on both additive and dominance genetic effects. The most important gene associated with the hair color is Melanocortin 1 Receptor (MC1R), which is involved in the biosynthesis pathway that controls the synthesis of melanin.

Your mentor asks you to determine if the mutants belong to the same complementation group. What is true about flies that belong to different complementation groups? What would be the outcome of crossing two strains of wingless flies that belong to different complementation groups?

Answers

Answer:

=> The offsprings are wild type.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following main or Important information or data which I going to assist us in solving this particular Question or problem:

=> There is an isolated a true-breeding strain of wingless Drosophila.

=> " six other true-breeding strains of Drosophila with the same mutant phenotype have been isolated independently in the lab."

Therefore, the flies that belong to different complementation groups will cause MUTATION TO OCCUR ON THE SAME GENE.

Mutation will occur because here we have dual but different genomes and when you take a look at these genomes they both have a trait of recessiveness and this combination of the genomes will cause the mutation.

Quick note: on the strain, occurence if different mutation might or might not occur.
