Answer:

Phytoplankton

Explanation:

Formed by unicellular eukaryote microalgae, phytoplankton is defined as the portion of planktonic organisms capable of photosynthesis, constituting the basis of the food chain in aquatic ecosystems. For this reason, we can say that in an ocean ecosystem, phytoplankton production is necessary to start a food chain.

Phytoplankton are composed of individuals from different taxonomic groups that have some common characteristics: they all have individualized nucleus and complex organelles in their cytoplasm, as well as photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b, carotenoids). These organisms, predominantly autotrophic, can also ingest particles, being characterized in some cases as myxotrophic.

Explain how the chemical properties of water affect the solubility of inorganic and organic molecules and how is this so importa
Delvig [45]

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar, meaning they have dipole polarities. The Hydrogen end is partially positive while the Oxygen end is partially negative. This is due to the fact that oxygen has a higher atomic mass and hence attracts most of the electron cloud of the molecule towards its end.

This property of water is very important because it is able to dissolve polar molecules while non-polar molecules do not dissolve. This is an important property in the body of organisms because, for example, water helps in the folding of proteins (by interacting with polar motifs of a protein) hence ensuring the protein maintains their functional structural forms.

Water also dissolves significant polar molecules that are utilized by the body, such as glucose, and helps in their transportation within the body. Water is also significant in the diffusion of hormones used in cell signaling, e.t.c.  

Water is also able to dissociate ionic compounds, such as sodium chloride, that are important in the osmotic pressure homeostasis of cells.

In muscle cells, myosin molecules continue moving along actin molecules as long as:
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

d. ATP is present and the intracellular Ca2+Ca2+ concentration is high.

Explanation:

Myosins are  motor proteins that plays a major role in  muscle contraction. They depend on ATP and responsible for motility in actin-based substances. Skeletal muscle is composed of myosin and actin fibers. Each myosin thick filament is surrounded by actin thin filaments, and each thin filament is surrounded by thick filaments. There exists a strong attraction between the myosin head and the myosin-binding site of actin which binds them spontaneously. This bond is aided by the presence of ATP and the high concentration of intracellular Ca2+. The myosin protein undergoes a change in its shape.

enyata [817]
A. Carbon is represented by 2C. thus there are 4 Carbon atoms.
using the same method here are the other answers.
B. 6
C. 12
