Question
Microtubules are important for transporting cargo in nerve ell axons, as diagrammed in the figure. Notice that the two types of cargo (black and grey) are traveling in opposite directions. Which of the following statements is FALSE? Select one: The black cargo and the grey cargo are moving along microtubules of opposite polarity. The black cargo and the grey cargo require ATP hydrolysis of their motion. The black cargo moving toward the axon terminal is attached to the tail domain of a motor protein. The grey cargo is attached to dynein.Explanation / Answer
C) the black cargo moving toward axon terminal is attached to the tail domain of the motor protein is the false statement.
The kinesin facilitate movement of cargo through the microtubule from the center of the cell to the periphery
