The mitochondrion is present in all other eukaryotes but functionally absent in the parabasilids and diplomonads.

In general, mitochondria are called powerhouses of the cell as they transform energy from one phase to another and also provide energy to the cells in the form of ATP.

Eukaryotic cells have high metabolic rates meaning their energy requirements are quite high which ultimately leads to the presence of a high number of mitochondria.

On the other hand, arabasalids and diplomonads are anaerobic with low metabolic rates and thus lack mitochondria.

Instead of mitochondria, these organisms have a special organelle called the hydrogenosome which regulates the activities of metabolism in them.

Natali [406]

Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

When a chemical substance is dangerous for people's health, we speak of a toxic risk. This risk can materialize if exposure to the chemical agent is not controlled. Toxic substances are those substances capable of causing harmful effects in a living organism when they come into contact with it or when ingested,  intentionally, accidentally, or deliberately. The toxic risk of a chemical product depends on two factors: the toxicity and the absorbed dose, where a series of factors influence: composition, properties, concentration, duration of exposure, route of entry into the organism and workload.

Why are all cells very small?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Cells are small because they need to keep a surface area to volume ratio that allows for adequate intake of nutrients while being able to excrete the cells waste. That is why the cell needs to be small. The smaller it is, the larger the surface area to volume ratio is. ... This is why cells are so small.

explicación:

The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. ... That is why cells are so small.
