Answer:
of diffusion
Explanation:
Molecules move down a concentration gradient without the need to use energy. This means they move from a high concentration to a low concentration. This occurs across a semi-permeable membrane, like the cell membrane, by simple diffusion.
Answer:
1. Nucleotides
2. Amino acids
3. Amino acids
4. Glucose
Explanation:
All the above substance described are biomolecules. They are all polymers i.e. complex molecule bond together in a long repeating chain, made up of simpler subunits called monomers. The monomers of the different biomolecules outlined above are:
1. The nucleic acids, DNA and RNA carry genetic information and are made up of many NUCELEOTIDES. A nuceleotide is a chemical combination of a five carbon sugar (pentose), phosphate group and nitrogenous base. These nucleotides are arranged sequentially to form nucleic acids (RNA and DNA).
2. Myoglobin is a protein that binds oxygen molecules and is a polymer of AMINO ACIDS. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are arranged to form a 3D structure that determines the function of the protein.
3. Insulin is a protein hormone that regulates blood glucose levels and is a polymer of AMINO ACIDS. All proteins are made up of the amino acid but the protein's function is dependent on the 3D structure formed by the amino acid sequence.
4. Animals store energy in the form of glycogen, a carbohydrate made up of thousands of monosaccharide (GLUCOSE). Glycogen is a polysaccharide made up of many monosaccharide units. These units are glucose molecules that are multibranched to form the glycogen that stores mainly in the liver and muscles of animals.
Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis), it must grow and make a copy of its DNA which is termed as an Inter-phase.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Some tasks must be carried out by the cells before they undergo division: The cell must grow, it must copy the genetic material (DNA) present in it, and divide into two daughter cells. These steps carried out by cells are termed as cell cycle.
Cells that contains a nucleus or Eukaryota cells, there are two major phases called interphase and the mitotic (M) phase. that comprises the cell cycle.
In inter-phase, growth of the cell and making a copy of its DNA is carried out.
In mitotic (M) phase, the cell separation of the DNA in the cell into two sets and division of its cytoplasm takes place resulting in the formation of two new cells.
Answer:
The correct answers are: Ribosome, Mitochondria, Chloroplast (in case of a plant cell).
Explanation:
- The Endo-membrane system in the cell represents the membranes of the Nucleus, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Plasma Membrane, Vacuole and Lysosome.
- The Nuclear Envelope is made up of a phospholipid bilayer which remains in continuation with the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) membrane.
- Therefore, fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein localised in the outer nuclear envelope can move into the ER membrane by lateral movement or through vesicles that bud off from the membrane of the nuclear envelope and fuse with that of the ER membrane.
- Vesicles bud off from the membrane of the ER and fuse with the Golgi apparatus. Therefore, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can move into the membrane of the Golgi apparatus.
- Vesicles bud off from the Golgi apparatus and fuse with the Plasma membrane, Lysosome membrane, and Vacuole membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can be found in all these organelles.
- Ribosome lacks a membrane and hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein will be absent over here.
- Both Mitochondria and Chloroplast, are self-replicating and dividing organelles. Their proteins (membrane or matrix) are encoded mostly by their own genome. Also, vesicles that bud from from nucleus or ER or Golgi apparatus do not fuse into their membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged protein would not be able to reach their membrane.
Answer: Insight Learning
Explanation:
Insight learning is the sudden grasp or immediate understanding of the solution to problem. It is a behavioural learning process. Insight learning is helped or aided by past experiences regarding that particular problem. Insight learning can be influenced by the age of the person. Insight learning is a problem solving method.
