This map shows how climate change might affect precipitation patterns in the Great Plains of the United States by the end of this century. Brown shows a decrease in precipitation, and blue shows an increase. The maps differ based on the predicted levels of greenhouse gas
emissions.
The maps show that northern areas should get
Southern areas will likely get
To use these maps to prepare for natural disasters in the Great Plains,
scientists need to ask,

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.
