Answer:
<em>B: The drug is a small charged molecule</em>
Explanation:
Substances can passively diffuse in and out of the cell via the cell membrane in two ways;
- Simple diffusion
- Facilitated diffusion
The cell membrane allows small molecules or ions to freely diffuse across it in response to concentration difference between the inner and outer parts of the cell membrane. This is known as simple diffusion.
In facilitated diffusion, special proteins in the cell membrane, known as channel/carrier proteins binds with molecules and facilitates their diffusion across the cell membrane by carrying them through special channels in the membrane.
Hence, to support the alternative hypothesis that the new drug will exhibit simple diffusion across the plasma membrane, the drug should be a small charged molecule.
<em>Correct option: B</em>
ANSWER: A living organism intakes food, it breaks down into mostly water and large organic molecules. These large organic molecules are Fat, Proteins, Glucose, Starch and Cellulose. These molecules are still not usable by the cells so the body breaks these large polymers into small monomers.
In cow's muscles, protein muscles are built by tapping 4 amino acid monomers. Fat muscles are built by tapping 3 fatty acid monomers and 1 glycerol molecule.
Cows use glucose molecules to mix with oxygen to release chemical energy in cellular respiration. Cows can make fat molecules and glucose molecules because fatty acids and glycerols are made up of same atoms, C, H and O.
C and D are the answers. A is incorrect because of asexual reproduction. B is incorrect due to it have the same number. E is not correct because meiosis is sexual reproduction.
Insolation is the amount of solar energy that is incident on the surface of the earth. For the same insolation, water bodies tend to absorb the most heat as water has a high heat capacity and so do grasslands. Areas such as desserts and glaciers do not absorb high amounts of insolation due to which these areas exhibit extreme, inhabitable environments. The order becomes:
The Atlantic Ocean
A marshy wetland
Nevada desert
Polar ice caps
The right answer is C.
A genetic disease is called autosomal dominant transmission when
:
* The morbid allele ("sick" version, mutated of the gene in question) is on a non-sexual chromosome (neither X nor Y).
* The presence of a single morbid allele is sufficient for the disease to express itself.
The morbid allele is transmitted by either the father or the mother (or both, if they have the same inherited autosomal dominant genetic disease). Anyone with one of their affected parents is affected.
Jackson-Weiss syndrome is indeed an autosomal dominant disease characterized by a malformation of the feet, craniosynostosis of varying degrees, facial abnormalities, enlargement of the big toes and normal hands.
