it produces rRNA and assembles ribosome subunits
|
|
|
as rbc matures, it loses all of its DNA. As a result it ________

SOLVENT
|
|
|
Water crosses the plasma membrane primarily by means of
|
transmembrane channels
|
|
|
phosphates are abundant in the intracellular fluid. What is the other major intracellular anion?
|
proteins!!!!
|
|
|
The sodium potassium pump is important for secondary active transport of other solutes. How does this pump work to bring in other solutes?
|
Sodium is pumped OUT of the cell, creating a LOW sodium concentration inside the cell
