fredd [130]2 years ago
3 0

Out of the following choices;

A.mechanoreceptors. B.thermoreceptors. C.photoreceptors. D.nociceptors.

The answer is A. Intuitive as the name suggest, the receptors respond to physical or mechanical pressure and distortion. They detect when the hairs change position, even the slightest movement. This way they convert the mechanical energy from the sound waves to the electrical impulse to the brain.

In general, a signal transmitted via phosphorylation of a series of proteins A) brings a conformational change to each protein.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) requires phosphorylase activity.

Explanation:

Signals transmitted with the use of phosphorylation requires the presence and activity of an enzyme phosphorylase (also called Kinase) that can add phosphorus groups to proteins or other molecules in order for them to become messengers in the signaling pathway.

What problems do desert plants and rainforest plants have in regards to water and how have they adapted to deal with these probl
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The desert plants ans the rainforest plants both have problems with water, just that they are total opposite ones. The desert plants have problems because they do not have enough water. In order to cope with that, these plants have developed methods through which they are able to retain water and not a single drop to evaporate from them. They also are able to take in water from the air, and have enormous root systems. The plants in the rainforests have problems with too much water, so they have adapted very wide leaves so that the water doesn't go toward their roots. The roots also are able to restrict the intake of water, while the plants themselves have extremely high tolerance to water. They also have developed larger pores on their leaves in order for the water to evaporate more easily from them.

When the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane, an H+ channel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to proton
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

because a proton gradient is necessary over the inner mitochondrial membrane during oxidative phosphorylation for ATP production, ATP production will decease if gramicidin is added because the inner mitochondrial membrane will become permeable and the protons will be able to move in and out, there will be no electrochemical gradient left to drive ATP production. Electron transport will not be altered because it is dependent on the availability of NADH and FADH2. proton pumping also will remain the same but it will be useless because the protons can go back and forth

A student conducts a mark-recapture experiment to estimate the population size of sunfish in a small pond near her home. In the
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

348.75 individuals, however you may need to round

Explanation:

To solve this problem, you need to think of the proportions you are given. Since she marked 45 fish in the beginning, and assuming none died, you can assume that there are 45 marked fish in the whole population. Therefore, when she takes the sample of 62 and sees that there are 8 marked fish, a good strategy is to take that proportion and use it to solve for the population like so:

8(marked fish in sample)/62(total in sample) = 45(total marked fish)/x(total population. Next cross-multiply 45 * 62 and 8 * x and set them equal to each other, getting you to the equation 2790 = 8x. Finally, to find x, the population size, divide 2790 by 8 to get x= 348.75.
