Answer: Parasites

Explanation:

Both tapeworms and lice depend on a living host to survive. The relationship between the parasite, tapeworm or lice, isn't mutual. The parasite only benefits from the relationship, because the host provides them with plenty of nutrients. In some cases, tapeworms and lice can carry diseases and infect the host. So, there is your answer and goodluck!

They are parasites. parasites are organisms that live in or on an organism of another species. it benefits by deriving nutrients at the other's expense.

All cells share the following common components except
Monica [59]

Answer:

All cells share four common components: (1) a plasma membrane, an outer covering that separates the cell’s interior from its surrounding environment; (2) cytoplasm, consisting of a jelly-like region within the cell in which other cellular components are found; (3) DNA, the genetic material of the cell; and (4) ribosomes, particles that synthesize proteins. However, prokaryotes differ from eukaryotic cells in several ways.



Figure 1. This figure shows the generalized structure of a prokaryotic cell.

A prokaryotic cell is a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle. We will shortly come to see that this is significantly different in eukaryotes. Prokaryotic DNA is found in the central part of the cell: a darkened region called the nucleoid (Figure 1).

Unlike Archaea and eukaryotes, bacteria have a cell wall made of peptidoglycan, comprised of sugars and amino acids, and many have a polysaccharide capsule (Figure 1). The cell wall acts as an extra layer of protection, helps the cell maintain its shape, and prevents dehydration. The capsule enables the cell to attach to surfaces in its environment. Some prokaryotes have flagella, pili, or fimbriae. Flagella are used for locomotion, while most pili are used to exchange genetic material during a type of reproduction called conjugation.

Eukaryotic Cells

In nature, the relationship between form and function is apparent at all levels, including the level of the cell, and this will become clear as we explore eukaryotic cells. The principle “form follows function” is found in many contexts. It means that, in general, one can deduce the function of a structure by looking at its form, because the two are matched. For example, birds and fish have streamlined bodies that allow them to move quickly through the medium in which they live, be it air or water.

A eukaryotic cell is a cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound compartments or sacs, called organelles, which have specialized functions. The word eukaryotic means “true kernel” or “true nucleus,” alluding to the presence of the membrane-bound nucleus in these cells. The word “organelle” means “little organ,” and, as we learned earlier, organelles have specialized cellular functions, just as the organs of your body have specialized functions.

Cell Size

At 0.1–5.0 µm in diameter, prokaryotic cells are significantly smaller than eukaryotic cells, which have diameters ranging from 10–100 µm (Figure 2). The small size of prokaryotes allows ions and organic molecules that enter them to quickly spread to other parts of the cell. Similarly, any wastes produced within a prokaryotic cell can quickly move out. However, larger eukaryotic cells have evolved different structural adaptations to enhance cellular transport. Indeed, the large size of these cells would not be possible without these adaptations. In general, cell size is limited because volume increases much more quickly than does cell surface area. As a cell becomes larger, it becomes more and more difficult for the cell to acquire sufficient materials to support the processes inside the cell, because the relative size of the surface area across which materials must be transported declines.



Figure 2. This figure shows the relative sizes of different kinds of cells and cellular components. An adult human is shown for comparison.

IN SUMMARY: COMPARING PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC CELLS

Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms of the domains Bacteria and Archaea. All prokaryotes have plasma membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes, a cell wall, DNA, and lack membrane-bound organelles. Many also have polysaccharide capsules. Prokaryotic cells range in diameter from 0.1–5.0 µm.

Like a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes, but a eukaryotic cell is typically larger than a prokaryotic cell, has a true nucleus (meaning its DNA is surrounded by a membrane), and has other membrane-bound organelles that allow for compartmentalization of functions. Eukaryotic cells tend to be 10 to 100 times the size of prokaryotic cells.

Explanation:

Lab: Reactions  

The goal of this lab is to demonstrate the effects of changing temperature and particle size on the rate of a chemical reaction. The purpose of this lab is to plan and perform controlled tests of multiple variables using repeated trials during an investigation about reaction rate. This is an inquiry lab. My hypothesis is that the effects of the different variables will have a major effect on the outcome of the results. The temperature will change dramatically by the multiple factors it will be exposed to. The different variables include the substance in the container, the temperature in the container. Also, the temperature of the room can affect the ending temperature of the cylinder after the experiment. The controlled variables are using the same thermometer and the amount of substance put into the vial.  

 

The materials needed for the lab are listed above. The steps of the experiment do not change, only the substances used for the experiments. This includes started with the beaker and filling it with the cylinder with water. Then you use the thermometer to check the degree of the water. Then you use togs and place the beaker filled with water onto the hot plate. You turn on the hot plate and wait for the water to heat up for 5 minutes. Then you use togs and remove the beaker from the hot plate and turn the plate off. Then you use the thermometer and check the temperature of the heated water. You put the tablet into the heated water and time it. You repeat this process with all of the substances.  

You should record all of the processes of the lab and write it all down.  

Table A: Baseline Data for Tablet in Room Temperature Water Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Start Time End Time Elapsed Time (s) Trial #1 250 20 0 50 50 Trial #2 250 20 0 52 52 Trial #3 250 20 0 51 51 Average Time for Tablet to Dissolve 51 Table B: Time to Dissolve Tablet in Hot Water Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Start Time End Time Elapsed Time (s) Trial #1 250 40 0 22 22 Trial #2 250 40 0 24 24 Trial #3 250 40 0 20 20 Average Time for Tablet to Dissolve 22 Table C: Time to Dissolve Tablet in Cold Water Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Start Time End Time Elapsed Time (s) Trial #1 250 4 0 84 84 Trial #2 250 4 0 89 89 Trial #3 250 4 0 85 85 Average Time for Tablet to Dissolve 86 Table D: Time to Dissolve Tablet When Quartered Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Start Time End Time Elapsed Time (s) Trial #1 250 20 0 41 41 Trial #2 250 20 0 44 44 Trial #3 250 20 0 41 41 Average Time for Tablet to Dissolve 42 Table E: Time to Dissolve Tablet When Crushed Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Start Time End Time Elapsed Time (s) Trial #1 250 20 0 18 18 Trial #2 250 20 0 18 18 Trial #3 250 20 0 15 15 Average Time for Tablet to Dissolve 17 Summary Tables Table F: Summary Table for the Effect of Temperature Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Average Time (s) Hot water 250 40 22 Room temperature 250 20 51 Cold water 250 4 86 Table G: Summary Table for the Effect of Surface Area Volume (mL) Temp. ( oC) Average Time (s) Tablet form 250 20 51 Quartered 250 20 42 Crushed 250 20 17

The different substances used in the experiment reacted differently based on the heated water and conditions of the outside temperature. This was affected by all of the variables. I did not do any background research before doing this experiment so I do not have any prior experience on this topic. My hypothesis was correct after conducting the experiment. This constantly changed based on the variables and substance used.
