A bacterial cell that has taken up plasmid DNA is?
A bacterial cell that has taken up plasmid DNA is transformed.
How much of the cell cycle is taken up by cell division?
Very little of the cell cycle is taken up by cell division. Most of the cell cycle consists of cell growth and chromosome replication so the original cell can split into multiple cells.
What cellular feature allows a mineral such as manganese to diffuse from cell to cell after being taken up by roots?
plasmodesmata
What is the force that is caused by the water taken up by plant cell vacuoles?
osmosis
What breaks apart triglycerides so they can be taken up by the cell?
lipoprotein lipase
Explain what happens to neurotransmitters after they are released?
After neurotransmitters are released in to the synaptic cleft - from the presynaptic neuron, they bind with there specific receptor cites found on the postsynaptic neurons cell membrane. Some neurotransmitters then become inactive by enzymes whiles other simply drift away from the synaptic cleft. Reuptake can also occur where the presynaptic neuron sponges up (or takes back) the remaining neurotransmitters left behind.
What does a cytoplasm do for a Plant cell?
it keeps every thing together and stops it from falling apart
When this is taken up by the cell it binds to the repressor so that the repressor no longer binds to the operator?
The inducer.
2 type of endocytosis?
The 2 types of endocytosis are pinocytosis("cell drinking) in which liquids are taken up by the cell and then there is phagocytosis (cell-eating) in which the cell engulfs certain substances.
What is the strong substance that makes cell walls?
Cellulose makes up the cell walls of plants, and is broken down during the cooking of potatoes as they have cellulose as they are classified as a plant.
How is the neurotransmitter removed from a synaptic cleft?
Most neurotransmitters are removed by being taken up by the presynaptic or postsynaptic neurones however acetylcholine is the prime exeption to this as is actually destroyed in the synaptic cleft by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. The reason this must happen is that otherwise the neurotransmitter would be left in the cleft where it would continue to evoke a response in the postsynaptic cell for longer than it should. For this reason reuptake and catabolic enzymes are often the targets of drugs gieven to treat neurological disorders. Another possible problem is wastage, if the neurotransmitter is left in the cleft it may difuse away and be wasted giving the presynaptic neurone more work to do creating more.
What does the cell wall and the cell membrane do in common in the plant cell?
The cell wall allows a lot of substances in which can be taken up by the cell whenever necessary and the cell membrane takes in the matierials required ,inside to the protoplasm.This way the cell wall and the cell membrane both help in the intake of materials required by the cell.
