Biology
1 answer:
Blizzard [7]3 years ago
7 0
An exocrine gland is a gland that secretes substances intended to be expelled from the body into the external environment, that is to say for example in the skin, the digestive tract or the respiratory tree. The exocrine glands deliver their secretion via an excretory duct. Some examples of the exocrine gland are salivary glands, sweat gland. mucous gland.

They are distinguished from endocrine glands that directly release their secretions into the bloodstream at the blood capillaries (still inside the body).

Some exocrine glands also have a role of endocrine gland, they are called amphicrine glands (like pancreas).

seraphim [82]

Answer:

plant cells have chloroplasts and a cell wall. (they also have one large central vacuole.)

Explanation: Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. Chloroplasts convert energy from the sun into sugar (glucose). The chloroplast is also where photosythesis happens in the plant cell. The cell wall is also only found in a plant cell. The cell wall protects and mantains the shape of the cell. And you don't have to put this one but the central vacuole is just one big vacuole in a plant cell that stores mainly water and nutrients since plant cells require more water to function, whereas in animal cells they have multiple small vacuoles.

What happens during the lytic cycle of a viral infection?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

D. The virus uses the host cell to make new viral parts.

Explanation:

The virus is an organism that is incapable of replicating on its own without a living host cell. It needs to infect a living cell in order to reproduce. The infection cycle of a virus is the replication cycle. Viruses employ two major infection cycles: LYTIC or LYSOGENIC cycles.

In the lytic cycle, the virus initially attaches to specific receptor sites on the host cell membrane. It then penetrates the host cell and incorporate its genetic material into the host cell's genome. It employs the host's ability to express its genes and replicate to express its genes and make new proteins. At the end of the LYTIC cycle, new viral particles (virions) are produced and released by lysis of the host cell.
