Answer: Because the cell will expand and burst

When a cell is frozen, that means the cell temperature is going to be lowered extremely. Ice has more volume than water which is why it floating inside water. That's why if you put water in a plastic container then freeze it, the container will get pressured and swollen. If the container is not elastic enough(metal, glass), it will burst. 
Same like that, the cell that got frozen can be burst too.

Elanso [62]
<span>Oxygen travels to insect tissues through tiny openings in the body walls called spiracles, and then through tiny blind-ended, air-filled tubes called tracheae. Therefore, insects obtain oxygen through the spracles, which are small abdominal holes that lead into traecheal tubes called tracheae that branch into smaller tubes called tracheoles. From there, oxygen diffuses into body cells.</span>

Which of the following is not true about prokaryotic cells?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Prokaryotes lack a true nucleus with well defined nuclear membrane and other membrane-bound organelles. Mitochondria are the double membrane bound organelle and hence is absent in prokaryotes. Mesosome is an extension of the cell membrane presence in the cytoplasm as infolding and serves to increases surface area and as a site for cellular respiration in prokaryotes. Histones are positively charged proteins that serve in the packaging of negatively charged eukaryotic DNA but are absent in prokaryotes.

So, the correct answer is option A.(DNA is complexed with histones).

If a particular gene is located on the Z chromosome of this lizard species, describe why a lizard with a ZW genotype has a great
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.
