From the statement below which of the scientific advances most directly contributed to development of the cell theory ?

Biology
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:  The correct option is d. the improvement of the microscope and microscopic techniques.

In the 1600s the development of cell theory was led by advances in microscopy.  The cell theory is historic in terms of scientific theory. According to the theory it was proposed that all living organisms are made up from cells, cell is the basic structural unit in all the organisms and new cells arise from pre-existing cells. The continuous improvement of microscopy with time and advancements in magnification technology were enough for discovering the cells and contributed the most towards the cell theory.

List three changes of state during which energy is absorbed.
mote1985 [20]

The three changes of state during which energy is absorbed are:

1. Change from solid to liquid - Melting.

2. Change from liquid to gas - Vaporization

3. Change from solid to gas - Sublimation

All these changes of state require heat energy to break the attractive forces that hold the particles of the molecules together, so that they can move into more disorderly states. For instance, when heat is applied to a solid, the solid absorbs the heat and use it to break the attractive forces that are holding the molecules of the solid together. At a particular temperature, the attractive forces will be completely overcome and the solid framework will collapse, thus leading to the melting of the solid.

Which statement best defines a protist?
Helga [31]
Protists obtain food in 3 ways. They produce their own organic molecules, ingest, and absorb.  Ingestive protists ingest food, or engulf bacteria. These protists extend their cell wall and cell membrane forming a food vacuole around the food item. Inside the food vacuole, enzymes digest the food. Absorptive protists on the other hand, absorb food molecules  across their cell membrane which takes place through diffusion. Absorptive protists play a key role in decomposition. They are considered as important decomposers. Major producers  like photosynthetic protists  use light energy to manufacture  their own food.<span>

1. a molecule that serves to make reactions work vesicles 2. tiny sacs in the cell that may contain starch enzyme 3. packets wit
slamgirl [31]
1. Enzyme is the molecule that serves to make reactions work. Enzymes are biochemical catalysts that catalyses chemical reactions in a cell by acting on substrates and convert them to products. Their rate of action increases with increase in substrate concentration, reaching optimum when all active sites of the enzyme are engaged.

2. Plastid are the tiny sacs in the cell that may contain starch. Plastid are major cell organelles found in the cells of plants and algae. Plastids are site for the manufacture and storage of important  chemical compounds used by the cell. They often contain pigments used in photosynthesis, and the types of pigments present can change or determine cells color.

3. Lysosome are packets within the cell that contain digestive enzymes. Lysosomes are one of many organelles found in animal cells. they are tiny like sacs filled with enzymes that enables the cell to process nutrients. They contain digestive enzymes which helps in the digestion of worn out organelles, food particles and engulfed viruses or bacteria.

4. Mitochondrion is a structure within a cell that is responsible for production of energy. Energy in a cell is produced through a process of cellular respiration which involves use of nutrients with oxygen gas to yield energy inform of ATP, water and carbon dioxide. The process takes place in the mitochondrion where oxygen acts as proton acceptor in the electron transport chain coupled by production of energy.

5. An Organelle is a small structure that serves specialized functions. A cell is made up of various organelles that help it perform its functions. Each organelle is specialized to perform as specific function different from other organelles, for example ribosomes is an organelle involved in the manufacture of proteins.

6. Golgi apparatus are group of flattened sacs that package and export materials out of the cell. Golgi apparatus also called golgi complex or golgi body, is a membrane bound organelle in eukaryotic cells that is made up by a series of flattened, stacked pouches called cisternae. They are responsible for transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles.

7. Vesicles are tiny sacs connected to the Endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. Vesicles are small structures within a cell, or extracellular, consisting of fluid enclosed by a lipid bi-layer. they form naturally during the process of secretion (exocytosis), uptake (endocytosis) and transport of materials within the cytoplasm.
