Answer;

-Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium forms the epidermis of the skin.

-In keratinized stratified squamous epithelial tissue, the cells on the apical (outer) surface are dead.

Explanation;

-Stratified squamous epithelium is a type of tissue found covering and lining parts of the body. Stratified squamous epithelium may be keratinized or nonkeratinized. Non-keratinized surfaces must be kept moist by bodily secretions to prevent them from drying out.

-The cells on the surface of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium are very flat. Not only are they flat, but they are no longer alive. They have no nucleus or organelles. They are filled with a protein called keratin, which is what makes our skin waterproof.

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle? see concept 12.3 (
NeTakaya
The correct answer is the interphase.

The cell cycle consists of three phases: the interphase (G1, S, G2) the mitotic (M) phase, and cytokinesis. <span>The first checkpoint of the cell cycle is G1 checkpoint which is between G1 and S phase when cell checks its size, nutrients, molecular signals, DNA integrity. The second checkpoint is G2, just before the mitotic phase, when cell checks DNA integrity and DNA replication. Those two checkpoints are the ones before division, other like M checkpoint is during the mitosis.</span>

Why aren’t your cells poisoned to death even though they create toxins?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Our cells are not poisoned to death because it is metabolized by our organs.

Explanation:

  • Toxins are any chemical products that damages the functioning of our body.
  • To be more specific, human body do not produce any toxins. They only discrete the waste materials that are easily secreted by our body through the metabolic activities.
  • Organs like liver and kidneys are responsible for fighting against the harmful waste products and toxins by throwing it out from our body.

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.

A scan of Sam's genome for the 100 most common mutations known to cause RP didn't find anything. How can you explain this result
yan [13]

Answer:

He is either not carrying the gene for RP or the RP gene has mutated.

Explanation:

RP or Retina Pigmentosa is an eye defect inherited by a person from a parent. The disease is degenerative as the individual gradually loses his sight. It normally starts off as night-blindness and could go as bad as a total loss of sight.

The mutation of both the RPGR and RP2 genes which are responsible for the function and structure of light-reception in the eye accounts for most cases of Retina Pigmentosa disease.
