Considering the following;

I. Heat is not readily available to all living cells.

II. Heat at excessive amounts denatures proteins.

III. Heat does not provide the activation energy for their reactions.

IV. When a critical temperature is reached, proteins no longer function

Answer;

I and IV

Explanation;

Living cells cannot use heat to provide the activation energy for biochemical reactions because heat is not readily available to all living cells and also when a critical temperature is reached, proteins no longer function.

Too much heat can kill an organism by rendering its organelles, cells, tissues and organs permanently inoperable and un-salvageable. The same process can be observed in tissues at low temperatures, and is the cause of frostbite. This is because enzymes are denatured by high temperature and inactivated by low.

Help!!!! Can anyone answer this lab questions below about mitosis!!!!
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Mitosis is a division of a eukaryotic cell in which the chromosomes are evenly distributed among the daughter cells.  

In multicellular organisms, both sexual and asexual reproduction is followed by cell division, which ensures the growth and development of the organism. In addition, cell division is necessary to replace dead cells and repair injuries. New cells are constantly being added and old ones are being destroyed. About a hundred thousand more cells are created every second, and of course the same number dies. The new cells start with the division of the source cell. The cells formed in this way are called daughter cells. Stem cells can gradually divide into all the different cells in the body through mitosis.

Most of the body's cells are constantly renewed by mitosis, but there are also so-called irreplaceable cells that are formed only once in a lifetime for the life of the organism and do not regenerate by mitosis.

What is the name of the structure that composers most of the cell membrane?
noname [10]

The cell membrane consists of three classes of amphipathic lipids: phospholipids, glycolipids, and sterols. The amount of each depends upon the type of cell, but in the majority of cases phospholipids are the most abundant, often contributing for over 50% of all lipids in plasma membranes.
