Answer is Homologous.

A diploid individual having two different alleles for a specific trait is called heterozygous. An allele is the alternative form of the same gene. The cells in diploid organisms contain sets of homologous chromosomes, which are paired chromosomes. Each chromosome of a homologous pair has the same genes on the same positions. Although homologous chromosomes have the same genes, they may have different alleles for those genes.  

Example: The gene for seed color trait in a pea plant exists in pair. One gene or allele for yellow seed (R) and the other for green seed color (r). A heterozygous plant would contain alleles for seed color (Rr). Gene R is present one chromosome and its allele (r) is present on the other chromosome of the homologous pair.

  1. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum.
  2. Chloroplast.
  3. Cell wall.
  4. Mitochondria.
  5. Vacuole.
  6. Membrane
  7. Golgi Apparatus.
  8. Nucleus
  9. Nucleolus.

The cell in the diagram is a plant cell because it has chloroplasts and a cell wall.

There are two types of cells animal cells, which are the ones that humans and animals have, and plant cells, which are the ones that plants and trees have. They share some organelles, but they also have some that are specific to each type.

The plant cell parts in the picture are:

  • Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum: it is where the ribosomes are. The synthesis of proteins happens there.
  • Chloroplast: it is an organelle-specific of plant cells. They are in charge of photosynthesis.
  • Cell wall: it is only present in plant cells. It surrounds the membrane.
  • Mitochondria: It is the place that generates the energy that the cell needs.
  • Vacuole: they are bigger in cell plants than in animal plants. It has many functions, but one is to store water.
  • Membrane: it draws the limits of the cell.
  • Golgi Apparatus: it is the place where proteins go to be distributed.
  • Nucleus: it contains DNA, and it has a membrane around it.
  • The nucleolus: is the larger part of the nucleus. It is in contact with the endoplasmic reticulum.

To sum up, the plant cell has a bigger vacuole than the animal cell; it also has chloroplasts and a cell wall, which are not present in the animal cell.

A grocery store newspaper claims that apple cider and honey can cure cancer, bronchitis, acne, bad breath, heart disease, athlet
frosja888 [35]
The shopper should first ask if this claims created by the newspaper is true and is backed up by actual facts. While apple cider and honey do have positive benefits, it is not the answer to all ailments.
Assuming that everything said was true, the shopper then must know whether or not he/she has allergies to apple cider and honey like itching, rashes, difficulty in swallowing, etc.
Lastly, the shopper should ask how much apple cider and honey should he/she take. Too much of both can lead to adverse side effects. If he/she were to consume apple cider and honey exclusively, then they should visit a doctor or a nutritionist in order to get the right amount of intake.
