The main function of a cell membrane is to allow substances to enter and leave the cell. Which is a correct description of transport through a cell membrane

Answers

Answer:

The question is incomplete, below is the completed question:

The main function of a cell membrane is to allow substances to enter and leave the cell. Which is a correct description of transport through a cell membrane ?

a. Diffusion, or passive transport, occurs when molecules diffuse from a lower concentration to a higher concentration.

b. Facilitated transport occurs when proteins that extend through the cell membrane provide a channel through which certain substances can diffuse more rapidly than by passive diffusion.

c. The lipid bilayer opens up and allows the ions or molecules to enter the cell, then closes.

d. Active transport occurs when molecules diffuse from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.

Answer:

b. Facilitated transport occurs when proteins that extend through the cell membrane provide a channel through which certain substances can diffuse more rapidly than by passive diffusion.

Explanation:

Transport through cell membranes can be broadly classified as active transport or passive transport.

Active transport requires energy in the form of ATP for the transportation of substances across the cell membrane.

Option b correctly describes facilitated diffusion, which is a passive-mediated diffusion process, where channels in the cell membrane mainly composed of proteins called transmembrane integral proteins, allow for the movement of certain molecules (mostly polar/hydrophilic) molecules that will not otherwise be transported through simple diffusion because of the hydrophobic nature of the cell membrane.

The other options are wrong because:

a. diffusion or simple transport involves the movement of substances from regions of higher to a lower concentration not lower to higher as suggested here.

c. The lipid bi-layer does not allow ions or hydrophilic molecules because it is hydrophobic in nature, and it is not a channel, so it does not open and closes

d. In active transport, transfer of molecules is from regions of lower to higher concentration and not higher to lower concentration as suggested here.

Food microbiologists are scientists who have a background in both microbiology and food science. They focus on how microbes grow, cause disease, and how they can be identified from food. Their work is of importance to the food industry as it relates to the production, preservation, and spoilage of food; and it is of importance to public health and regulatory agencies due to the many diseases that are related to food intake and consumption. Food microbiologists can have varying backgrounds, including training in veterinary medicine. This scenario is about a food microbiologist who works as a food safety inspector who pays a visit to a cheese manufacturing plant and makes some interesting discoveries!
Part A-Understanding the Role of Microbes in Fermentation The Midwest is known for its contribution to the dairy industry Fermented dairy products include milk, yogurt, and cheese. The fermentation process relies on lactic acid bacteria and pasteurization. Fermentation can vary based on what food is being produced, the type of bacteria used to produce lactic acid, and the time and temperature of pasteurization. It is important to the manufacturer to produce a product that won't spoil before it is packaged and sold and that won't result in disease for those who ingest and enjoy it. Julie, a food inspector for a local Michigan health department is going to a nearby cheese plant for a biannual inspection. When she gets there, she will take a tour of the plant and allow the operators to describe what makes their cheese so special. She will use what she understands about fermentation to inquire about their production practices Please sort the following statements as being true or false regarding fermentation and its role in food production. Please recall the role that microorganisms can play in the production of foods.
1. Fermentation allows for sugars to be broken down
2. Starter cutures are for the growth of pathogens or the food such as bread, vegetables, and n food Some grains, fruits, and
3. Fermentation can be used only to Bacteria ane the only have their own microbes that used in the Correct Statements

Very small changes in the solute concentrations in the various fluid compartments cause water to move from one compartment to another, which alters blood composition and blood pressure. How do the following physiological changes affect blood pressure?

a. Decrease water reabsorption
b. Decrease peripheral resistance
c. Vasodilation
d. Decrease salt intake
e. Decrease blood volume
f. Vasoconstriction
g. Increase peripheral resistance
h. Increase salt intake
i. Increase blood volume
j. Increase water reabsorption

Answers

Answer:

a. Decrease water reabsorption : decrease blood pressure.

b. Decrease peripheral resistance : decrease blood pressure

c. Vasodilation : decrease blood pressure

d. Decrease salt intake : decrease blood pressure

e. Decrease blood volume : decrease blood pressure

f. Vasoconstriction : increase blood pressure

g. Increase peripheral resistance:  increase blood pressure

h. Increase salt intake:  increase blood pressure

i. Increase blood volume : increase blood pressure

j. Increase water reabsorption: increase blood pressure

Explanation:

Total peripheral resistance: This term refers to the resistance offered by the vascular system to the blood flow.  This resistance is a result of the friction between the blood and the vessel's walls. In other words, it is the opposition of the vessels to blood flow. The total peripheral resistance is the summary of all the bloody circuit resistances in the body. Those mechanisms that induce vasoconstriction conduce to an increase in total peripheral resistance, while mechanisms that induce vasodilation provoke a decrease in total peripheral resistance.     Blood pressure: This term refers to the strength applied by the blood against the vessel walls as it flows.  This pressure is determined by the bombed blood strength and the volume as well as by the vessel size and flexibility. Blood pressure changes continuously according to the activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, among others.    Salt ingestion causes an increase in plasmatic osmolarity, stimulates thirst, and hence, water ingestion. Sodium retains water, expanding the blood volume and causing an increase in vessel pressure. The antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin hormone, is released by changes in serum osmolarity or blood volume. Its function is to keep homeostasis and make kidneys conserve or keep water by concentrating urine and by reducing its volume. By these actions, the antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorption, according to the organism´s needs. Kidneys control blood pressure in many ways. If the pressure is elevated, kidneys produce the loss of salt and water, normalizing arterial pressure. But if pressure is low, kidneys conserve water.

Answer:

An atom consists of protons, electrons, and neutrons.

Explanation:

The atom of an element is its smallest indivisible particle that retains its chemical properties. Atom is the fundamental and basic unit of matter.

The structure of an atom is made up of a positively charged PROTON, a neutrally charged NEUTRON (both contained in the nucleus) and a negatively charged ELECTRON that surrounds the nucleus. These three particles are called sub-atomic particles. The arrangement and number of these sub-atomic particles determine the properties of the atom.

Transcriptional regulation of operon gene expression involves the interaction of molecules with one another and of regulatory molecules with segments of DNA. In this context, define and give an example of each of the following:

a. operator
b. repressor
c. inducer
d. corepressor
e. promoter
f. positive regulation
g. allostery
h. negative regulation
i. attenuation

Answers

Answer and explanation:

The operator is a DNA fragment localized between the promoter and structural gene sequences that are able to repress operon transcription. A repressor is a molecule that binds to the operator to inhibit transcription, while an inducer is a molecule that activates transcription by binding either to the repressors or to the activators. A corepressor is a molecule that binds to repressors in order to activate them. A promoter is a DNA sequence localized upstream structural genes which binds to a transcription factor in order to activate operon transcription. Positive regulation is the process by which operon transcription acts as a positive loop, thereby increasing its own transcription, while negative regulation is the process by which operon transcription inhibits its own expression. Allostery refers to the process by which a molecule regulates operon transcription by binding to distal (and therefore non-functional) sites of the operon. Attenuation is a process able to reduce operon transcription and also to block subsequent translation.

a. They produce β-lactamase that provides resistance to ampicillin.
b. They carry a vector that contains a DNA fragment inserted into the multiple cloning site.
c. They produce functional β-galactosidase that cleaves X-gal.
d. They carry a vector with a lacZ gene that has been disrupted and rendered nonfunctional.
e. They carry a vector with the bla gene used as the selectable marker.

Answers

Answer:

c. They produce functional β-galactosidase that cleaves X-gal.

Explanation:

β-galactosidase is an enzyme capable of catalyzing the enzymatic hydrolysis of β-galactosides into monosaccharides by hydrolyzing the β-glycosidic bond. On the other hand, X-gal is an analog of lactose composed of galactose, which is widely used in laboratories for the detection of β-galactosidase. In the presence of β-galactosidase, X-gal is hydrolyzed by cleaving its β-glycosidic bond, thereby confirming the presence of β-galactosidase.

How can particle interactions explain the properties and behavior of dry ice?

Answers

Answer:

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO2). The particle interaction in dry ice is due to collision between inter-particles which results in agglomeration and shows the properties and behavior of dry ice.

The inter-particle collision in dry ice keeps the high temperature of dry-ice and make it sublimate (solid to gas) at room temperature and normal pressure.

Which of the following is responsible for the conversion of covalently closed circular DNA to supercoiled DNA of the plasmid of: a) endonuclease b) DNA gynase c) topa isomerase d) exonuclease

Answers

Answer:

DNA gyrase

Explanation:

DNA gyrase is a bacterial enzyme that plays an important role in catalyzing the negative supercoiling of circular chromosomal DNA. This enzyme belongs to a class of enzymes called topoisomerases which play a major role in transitioning of DNA structure. DNA gyrase conversion of covalently closed circular DNA to supercoiled DNA is ATP-dependent.

The importance of DNA gyrase cannot be overemphasized, because for DNA synthesis to occur, the DNA must have a single-stranded template, hence, DNA gyrase play an important role in unwinding the double-stranded DNA for replication. It has the ability to introduce negative supercoils and relax positive supercoils prior to replication.

Based on the data table below, which number would be the BEST choice for the top number of the scale on the vertical axis of a scatter plot showing this data?

Answers

Answer:

D. 70

Explanation:

From the table given, we can easily tell that distance (m) is dependent on time (s). Distance is a dependent variable, while time is an independent variable.

If both variables were to be plotted to show the relationship between them on a scatter plot, the dependent variable is usually plotted on the vertical axis (y-axis), while the independent variable would be plotted on the horizontal axis (x-axis).

Distance would be in the vertical axis, while time would be in the horizontal axis.

Therefore, the BEST choice for the top number of the scale on the vertical axis would certainly be 70, because the highest value for distance (m) on the table of values is 69.

Explanation:

The peroxisomes represent one of the organelles of the cell. They are usually small and characterized by membrane-bound vesicles that contain oxidative enzymes.

The enzymes in peroxisomes are involved in the oxidation of organic molecules - a process that leads to the formation of hydrogen peroxide. The later is further converted to water and oxygen by the constituent catalase enzyme of the peroxisomes. Fatty acids are also oxidized in peroxisomes but instead of hydrogen peroxide, acetyl groups that are utilized in other biosynthetic reactions are produced.
