Answer:
The correct answer is D
Explanation:
The primary function of the large central vacuole in a plant cell is to maintain turgor pressure against the cell wall of the plant. This vacuole also perform other functions such as storage (water and other nutrients) and waste disposal. When this vacuole is damaged in plant cells, the cells may no longer be able maintain turgor pressure and store materials (water inclusive). Also, <u>If the cell cannot store raw materials via the large central vacuole, the chloroplast will lack the raw materials required for photosynthesis</u>.
Answer:
Viruses use their own catabolic enzymes.
Explanation:
Viruses are the infective particles present in the environment which encloses their genetic material which could be wither RNA or DNA enclosed in the protein coat.
The protein coat is made of the capsomers which are arranged in the tubular structure forming capsid. The viruses do not contain the metabolic machinery of their own that is the reason that they do not have replication or transcription or translation machinery. For this they are dependent on the host organisms as they use their machinery.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Answer:
A considerable increase in phytoplankton populations in winter, and a greater increase in spring due to increase in light intensity.
Explanation:
Nitrogen and phosphorus are important nutrients required by phytoplankton populations. The growth of phytoplankton populations is dependent on the level of the availability of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in the presence of sunlight.
A rise in the aquatic coastal levels of nitrogen and phosphorus would result in a great increase in phytoplankton populations in spring, as stimulated by nutrient enrichment coupled with the availability of sunlight during spring. Phytoplankton populations would increase also in winter but not as high when compared to the rise in population in spring
