What type of protein controls what goes in and out of cells?

Integral Membrane Proteins control the movement of substances into and out of the Cell (that cannot pass directly through the bi-lipid layer). These are proteins that span the width of the membrane [40 nanometers], and can be channels, pumps, gates of many descriptions, co-transporters, etc. As proteins go, these trans-membrane proteins have internal and external hydrophyllic lengths that have immensely important and varied bio-functions, and the trans-membrane segment is of course hydrophobic.


What is a gene and what does it do?

A gene is a segment of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contains information for making proteins, which carry out traits that are passed down from a parent or parents that makes you look the way you look and even think the way you think.

What is the relationship between DNA genes and proteins?

A gene is a segment of DNA sequence which can fold in any orientation and hence will code for a particular protein. DNA molecule is a double helix structure formed by complementary base pairing of nucleotides. Proteins are formed by particular t-RNA and are synthesized in ribosomes. Proteins are required for various metabolic activities occurring in the body. A simpler way to say the same thing is: A gene is a section of a DNA molecule that contains the information to code for one specific protein.

Which one of the following alimentary segments has no digestive function stomach duodenum esophagus ascending colon or ileum?

The alimentary canal (also called the gastrointestinal [GI] tract) is made of several segments, some of which are mentioned in the question. The GI tract begins in the mouth, which secretes important digestive enzymes and performs mechanical digestion. Next is the esophagus, which is merely a vessel for transporting mashed up food from the mouth into the stomach. The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that continue the process of digestion. Next is the small intestine, which contains three parts: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Digestive enzymes are added in the duodenum by the pancreas. These enzymes act in all segments of the small intestine to aid digestion. Next is the colon, which is broken down into the ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid colon. The colon plays a somewhat minor role in absorption of digested particles and water. Then is the rectum and anus, which don't play a significant role in digestion or absorption, but rather contribute to continence and bowel movements.


What is a segment with information to make a protein?

A segment of DNA on a chromosome that controls the production of a protein is called a gene. Chromosome a cellular structure that contains DNA.


What are the functions of genes and proteins respectively?

Genes are a segment of DNA which codes for a RNA or proteins. In any case, the first process is transcription of mRNA that will be then transported to cytoplasm. RNA may or may not synthesize proteins depending on the nature and message coded in it. mRNA usually interact with tRNA and ribosomes to make proteins.


How does a gene control a cell?

A gene is a segment of DNA which codes for a specific protein. Through transcription and translation, a protein is produced and then is used for cell processes.genes control the cell by controling what proteins are expressed. these proteins could be enzymes, controling what chemical reactions the cell can carry out, structural proteins, controling the physical properties of the cell (shape etc.) or a number of other protein types that can control passage into and out of the cell, storage of molecules and how often the cell devides, to name but a few.

What do genes carry instructions for assembling?

Gene is a segment of DNA. So gene put together makes a DNA molecule.
