Unicellular organisms include bacteria, protists, and yeast. For example, a paramecium is a slipper-shaped, unicellular organism found in pond water. It takes in food from the water and digests it in organelles known as food vacuoles. Nutrients from the food travel through the cytoplasm to the surrounding organelles, helping to keep the cell, and thus the organism, functioning. Multicellular organisms are composed of more than one cell, with groups of cells differentiating to take on specialized functions. In humans, cells differentiate early in development to become nerve cells, skin cells, muscle cells, blood cells, and other types of cells. One can easily observe the differences in these cells under a microscope. Their structure is related to their function, meaning each type of cell takes on a particular form in order to best serve its purpose. Nerve cells have appendages called dendrites and axons that connect with other nerve cells to move muscles, send signals to glands, or register sensory stimuli.  Outer skin cells form flattened stacks that protect the body from the environment. Muscle cells are slender fibers that bundle together for muscle contraction. The cells of <u>multicellular</u> organisms may also look different according to the organelles needed inside of the cell. For example, muscle cells have more mitochondria than most other cells so that they can readily produce energy for movement; cells of the pancreas need to produce many proteins and have more <u>ribosomes</u> and rough <u>endoplasmic</u> <u>reticula</u> to meet this demand. Although all cells have organelles in common, the number and types of organelles present reveal how the cell functions.

Hope that helps!!

In the United States, which direction does a continental polar air mass that forms over Canada usually move and why?
goldfiish [28.3K]

In the United States the direction the continental polar air mass move South toward the Gulf of Mexico to replace the rising maritime tropical air mass.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Air masses are large bodies of air moving horizontally in a very uniform way.  Continental polar air mass is an air mass that forms near the poles. It originates in northern Canada and Alaska and move south then East.

The continental polar masses are the causes for the severe cold weather in the South during the cold months. Maritime tropical mass are warm and have high moisture content. During winter it comes in contact with the continental polar mass hence getting stabilized.
