Cells in a cat's pancreas produce insulin, but the cells in its heart do not. Which statement best explains this?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The correct answer is: A. The genes for insulin production are not activated in heart cells.

Explanation:

<u>DNA </u><u>is present in practically every cell in an organism</u>, but not every cell performs the same tasks as the rest. This happens because genes in the DNA   <u>code for different types of proteins</u>, from enzymes to transporters, that impact greatly on the <u>function</u> of a cell; and these genes can be activated or inactivated which will directly correlate to the type of cell and the function that it has.

<u>If the cells in the pancreas can produce insulin but the cells in the heart can't it's because the cells in the heart have the genes for insulin production inactivated</u>.

The amount of mitochondria and ribosomes does not directly affect the production of insulin.

Which statement accurately compares archaebacteria and eubacteria?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

They are probably archeabacteria because the colony lives in an extreme environment.

Explanation:

Archeabacteria are singled cell microorganisms that live in extreme environment. They are found in hot springs, salt lakes, oceans, soils and marshlands. They posses different shapes like rods, spheres, spiral and plates. Thermophiles, halophiles, and methanogens are the three types of archeabacteria.

Eubacteria are microorganisms that are found in most of the earth's habitats like soil, water, etc. They are have different shapes like cocci, bacilli, filaments, vibro,etc. They do not live in extreme environment unlike the archeabacteria. This is the major difference between the archeabacteria and eubacteria.

Both archeabacteria and eubacteria

are prokaryotes. Archeabacteria can both be autotrophic or heterotrophic and can live in places without oxygen. Some eubacteria are autotrophs and some are heterotrophs.
