Cells throughout the human body communicate with one another through the use of ______ messengers
Two ways 5 people can share a 3 segment chewy worm
which circumstance can cause negative population growth?
a.) the emigration rate is lower than the birthrate
b.) the immigration rate is the same as the birthrate
c.) the birthrate is higher than the death rate
d.) the death rate is higher than the birthrate
Answer:
D
Explanation:
If more specimens are dying than those being born, then we can assume that there will be a decrease in population.
Answer:
Option D, the death rate is higher than the birthrate
Explanation:

which of the following terms can be defined as the movement of water across a cell membrane?
a- exocytosis
b-osmosis
c-active tranport
d-facilitated diffusion
Answer:
b-osmosis
Explanation:
Osmosis is the movement of water that occurs within cells through a semipermeable cell membrane. This process is performed from a medium with lower water concentration to another with higher concentration.
In osmosis, the solvent (water) is passed from one medium to another across a cell membrane. This process does not cause energy waste and therefore osmosis is considered a passive transport. In the osmosis process, water, which is the solvent, tends to cross the semipermeable membrane in order to balance the solution concentration. This action is performed until the osmotic pressure is stabilized.
Starfish, flatworms, and sponges may be cut into pieces, and the individual parts will grow new individual animals by means of the process of _____.
Answer: Fragmentation
Explanation: Fragmentation is also known as splitting, is a method of reproduction, mostly occurring in many organisms ranging from molds, lichens, many plants, and animals such as sponges, and worms, that involves the breaking up of an organism's body into two or more body parts known as fragments and each fragment growing into a full individual organism.
Herbivores typically have monocular vision to allow them a wider range of vision, which helps them elude predators. What type of adaptation is this?
I just took the test the answer is (B) Physiological. I put in Biochemical the first time and got it wrong.
Answer:
Physiological
Explanation:
Physiological adaptations are adaptations that an individual undergoes during his or her lifetime and are associated with the organism's functioning in response to environmental variables - such as the monocular vision that exists in herbivores that need a broad view of their environment. These adaptations are not always passed on to offspring (in the case of monocular vision, they are). When physiological adaptation is not passed offspring is called acclimatization.
What should you do if there is some question about which layer is the organic one during an extraction procedure?
Why do plant cells need chloroplasts? Explain.
Answer:
Plant cells need chloroplast as they are the site for photosynthesis.
Explanation:
The chloroplast is the green-colored double membrane-bound organelles present mostly in cells of leaves of green plants. Chloroplasts have chlorophyll pigments which serve to trap the sunlight for the process of photosynthesis. Both light-dependent and light-independent phases of photosynthesis take place in chloroplast to form organic sugars.
Hence, chloroplasts serve as a site for photosynthesis in plants.
Which of the choices listed below are characteristics shared by all epithelial tissues? 1 contain a high amount of extracellular matrix (substance between cells) 2 avascular (no blood vessels) 3 cells closely joined together 4 form surface layers 5 found immediately next to blood-vessel rich connective tissues?
Epithelial tissues are characterized by being highly cellular with little to no extracellular matrix, avascular, and having cells closely joined together. They are attached to a basal lamina and possess the ability to quickly regenerate cells.
The characteristics shared by all epithelial tissues include cells that are closely joined together, forming an impermeable barrier thanks to tight junctions, the presence of avascularity meaning they contain no blood vessels and rely on diffusion or absorption for nutrient exchange, and the fact that they form surface layers covering body surfaces and lining internal cavities.
Epithelial tissues are also directly positioned next to connective tissues rich in blood vessels. Another key characteristic is that these tissues are highly cellular with little to no extracellular matrix material between cells.
The basal lamina, part of the epithelial tissue, is a thin layer composed of glycoproteins and collagen, and it serves as the attachment site separating the epithelium from the underlying connective tissue. Furthermore, epithelial tissues are known for their ability to rapidly replace damaged and dead cells, an essential feature for maintaining the integrity of surfaces that are frequently exposed to wear and tear, such as in the airways and digestive tracts.
A hypothetical poison prevents nucleoli from carrying out their functions which organelles would be affected by this poison what would the cell be unable to do
The hypothetical poison prevents the nucleoli from carrying its function and the cell will be unable to produce ribosomes because nucleoli is responsible for producing ribosomes and when it is poisoned, it will likely prevent it from having to produce it in the cell.

Which bonds are hydrolyzed during the breakdown of starch during digestion?
A.) 1 and 4
B.) 1 and 3
C.) 1 and 2
D.) 3 and 4
E.) 2 and 3
A) 1 and 4
Alpha amylase is an enzyme which helps in the digestion of starch. Its digestion begins in the mouth.
Starch is a form of complex carbohydrate i.e consisting of multiple sugar units (polysachharides). It a mixture of amylose ( [tex]\alpha -1,4[/tex] linked glucose polymers ) and amylopectin ( [tex]\alpha -1,4[/tex] linked glucose polymers branched by [tex][/tex][tex]\alpha -1,6[/tex] linkage)
Alpha-amylase performs the digestion of starch by hydrolyzing [tex]\alpha -1,4[/tex] glucosidic bond.
This protein is present at every replication fork and prevents dna polymerase from dissociating, but does not impede the rapid movement of the enzyme.
