Explanation:

D. The organism is eukaryotic because it has membrane-bound organelles.

Cells are the basic microscopic units of all organisms. There are two cell types, Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.

Prokaryotic ( meaning pro: before and Karyon: for kernel/nut) describes organisms which don’t have a cell nucleus or other organelles surrounded by membranes. Eukaryotic (eu meaning true), are organisms with a cell nucleus and several other organelles surrounded by membranes. Example prokaryotes do not contain: nuclei , Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, mitochondria

<em>Both may contain a cell wall (seen in eukaryotic fungi and plant cells)</em>

Arranged in a phospholipid bilayer, the membrane is semi-permeable; allowing entry into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds. The hydrophilic heads of the bilayer are attracted to water while their water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water and hydrophilic molecules to move across the membrane along the concentration gradient.

Their structural components (i.e. their makeup) determine their function (what they do) . For instance, photosynthesizing cells in algae and plants have structures called chloroplasts. These contain chlorophyll, a specialized compound which facilitates the conversion of light energy to energy stored in carbohydrates. In specific cell types, collected proteins may function as a unit called an organelle. Some organelles are bound by membranes like those that make up the external structure of the cell, with varying compositions of phospholipids and proteins. These are advantageous, as they:

may increase metabolic reaction efficiency; they allow cells to concentrates smaller fractions of enzymes and solutes
separate proteins and molecules that me harm the cell by parceling them into membrane-bound organelles for example, proteaseas bound within lysosomes can break down many structural proteins

Can we create effective vaccines or immunizations for lab made viruses? Or is it not possible because of the synthetic/man-made

Rashid [163]

Yes, it is possible to develop effective vaccines for any type of viruses. Genetically engineered viruses exhibit similar characteristics to natural viruses.

<h3>What is a virus?</h3>

A virus is a genetically independent entity that needs a suitable host to reproduce its genetic material (either DNA or RNA).

A genetically engineered virus is a virus whose genetic material has been modified using genetic engineering techniques.

Vaccines can be developed for removing any type of viruses because they take advantage of the intrinsic properties of the immune system (i.e., antigen recognition), independently of its origin.

Name the things which help in the preparation of carbohydrates in plants

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

People breathe oxygen in and carbon dioxide out, but for a plant to make carbohydrates, the leaves take in carbon dioxide through the stomata on the leaf surfaces. From the stomata, the mesophyll cells use the carbon dioxide to combine it with water and light for photosynthesis.

5. Is the following sentence accurate?

hichkok12 [17]

The cell that provides life with chemical energy. Light energy is converted by photosynthesis into chemical energy that is stored in glucose, and this energy is then released during cellular respiration to create ATP.

<h3>What does the term "cellular respiration" mean?</h3>

While cells are aerobic respiration, oxygen may be present or not. But, because the cell seems to "respire" by consuming molecular oxygen (as an electron acceptor) and releasing carbon dioxide, the process is essentially known as "cellular respiration" (as an end product).

<h3>What happens during cellular respiration?</h3>

ATP is created during cellular respiration as a reaction product between glucose and oxygen. Water and carbon dioxide are released as by products. The three stages of aerobic cellular respiration are glycolysis, an anaerobic process, and the Krebs cycle.
