Plant and animals cells are very similar structurally, though some differences do exist. The vacuole is one organelle that diffe

rs in plant and animal cells. Which statement BEST elaborates on the reason for this difference?
A)
Vacuoles help plants make their own food by converting light energy, Animals do not make their own food.


B)
Animal cells have large vacuoles to remove waste, while plant cells do not produce waste and have small vacuoles.


C)
Vacuoles are much larger in plant cells than in animal cells, because they tend to hold more water to stay upright.


D)
Vacuoles in animal cells are porous, so oxygen can pass, while those in plant cells have solid walls to keep water inside.

The answer is C. When a vacuole is filled with water, turgor pressure exist, it can keep the cells turgid and therfore to make the plant stay upright and prevent it from wilting.

The correct answer is; Vacuoles are much larger in plant cells than in animal cells, because they tend to hold more water to stay upright.

A vacuole is a membrane bound organelle in plants and animals cells which works by holding various solutions or molecules. The vacuoles are much larger in plant cells than in animal cells. In plant cells, the vacuole may be used to store water which help to support the plant. The solutes inside the vacuoles absorb water which makes the cells to become inflated. This allows the soft parts of the plants structure such as leaves to stay upright. Therefore, making plants to retain their shape and turgidity.

Why does a virus lethal to us not infect animals? I know that RNA viruses mutate at 10,000 to a million times faster than DNA vi
Setler [38]

The virus needs to speak the molecular language of cells. This is how he manages to dominate and enslave them so that they become factories for new viruses, producing the proteins that the infectious agent requires to assemble its descendants. If this conversation is not fine-tuned, even if the virus has the key and enters, it is doomed to failure.

<h3>Why does a virus lethal to us not infect animals?</h3>

For a virus to be able to enter a cell, it must have the right key. And this key, which are the proteins on the surface of viruses, has to enter the correct lock, the receptors that are on the cell membrane. Cells are actually houses with many different doors and locks. Some viruses have keys that open the lock of any cell and any kind of host, and others do not, so the infection caused by viruses is specific.

With this information, we can conclude that some viruses have keys that open the lock of any cell and any kind of host, and others do not, so the infection caused by viruses is specific.
