In what ways could the process of oxygen transportation from air to cell be positively influenced by the choices we make and the actions we take

The pharynx is the structure in the body that serves as a pathway of both air and food. how does the body make sure that food does not get into the lungs? the salivary glands secrete enzymes that pull food out of the air pathway. the small intestine pushes the air out of the digestive system. the pancreas breaks down food in the air pathway. the epiglottis closes the air pathway so that food will not enter it.

What is the significance of the protein-lined pits? a. protein attracts other proteins needed for atp synthesis within the cell. b. protein-lined pits are able to transport one molecule at a time down the concentration gradient within the cell. c. the polarity of proteins allows other polar molecules to attach and be transported in the cell by transport channels. d. receptors within the pits allow ligands to fuse and be transported into the cell by endocytosis.

American scientist, linus pauling, was one of many scientists racing to discover the molecular structure of dna. pauling initially thought that the molecule was a triple helix. later, james watson and francis crick unveiled their double helix model, which turned out to be an accurate description of the molecule's shape. why did watson and crick succeed when pauling failed?
