Answer:

Carrier proteins are involved in facilitated diffusion and active transport of substances out of or into the cell (e.g. diffusion of sugars, amino acids and nucleosides, uptake of glucose, transportation of salts, glucose, amino acids, etc.).

Answer:

Carrier proteins help the molecules to go through the cell's membrane.

Explanation:

There are several kinds of intermembrane proteins that play, mostly, transport roles. Carrier proteins help the molecules go through the membrane with the use of energy, could be ATP, or a bomb. Bombs are proteins that use the movement of one molecule to get other through, for example Na+ K+ bomb. In any case, the protein promotes the physical movement with the use of energy.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Endosymbiosis of an oxygen-using scavenger bacterium in a larger host cell−the endosymbiont evolved into lysosomes.

Explanation:

The evolution of eukaryotic cells in all probability included: endosymbiosis of an oxygen-utilizing bacterium in a bigger host cell−the endosymbiont developed into mitochondria. development of an endomembrane framework and consequent advancement of mitochondria from a segment of the Golgi. endosymbiosis of an oxygen-utilizing photosynthetic bacterium in a bigger host cell−the endosymbiont advanced into mitochondria. endosymbiosis of an oxygen-utilizing scrounger bacterium in a bigger host cell−the endosymbiont developed into lysosomes.

Current studies on frogs and wildlife indicate that hormonally active agents (HAAs) are __________. a. found in insecticides and
melomori [17]

The right answer is A.

The term "hormonally active agent" (or endocrine disruptor) refers to any molecule or compound chemical agent, xenobiotic having hormono-mimetic properties and described as a cause of physiological abnormalities, and in particular reproductive abnormalities. Some examples are PCB, TCDD, DDT. Some of them were used as pesticides and are now banned for use. Their traces always exist at the soil level due to their persistence.

These agents are most often associated with breast cancer.

As a mechanism of evolution, natural selection can be most closely equated with __________.
olga_2 [115]
As a mechanism of evolution, natural selection can be most closely equated with UNEQUAL REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS.

Mechanism of evolution refers to micro-evolution that involves mutation, gene flow and natural selection. Unequal reproductive success is also related to other processes of micro evolution such as natural selection. The organisms that can reproduce unequally and survive even in adverse condition, increase in numbers.

Which plant cell organelle helps maintain the shape of the cell by helping to maintain turgor pressure? A) cell membrane B) cell
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: The correct answer is- C) vacuole.

Large central Vacuole is a specialized fluid filled organelle, present only in plant cell. It is primarily involved in providing support and shape to the plant cell by maintaining the turgor pressure ( a hydrostatic force that is produced due to the cell contents against the inner side of the cell wall). The central vacuole stores water ( that flows through osmosis) and maintains turgor pressure in a plant cell.

Turgor pressure provides mechanical support and helps in the growth and development of plant.
