Answer:
<em><u>Nutrients help break down food to give organisms energy</u></em>
Explanation:
Nutrients are chemical substances found in every living thing on Earth. They are<em> necessary</em> to the lives of people, plants, animals, and all other organisms. <u><em>Nutrients help break down food to give organisms energy</em></u>. The human body can also synthesize some nutrients, such as <em>amino acids</em>.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed by S. J. Singer and G. L. Nicolson to describe the structure of the plasma membrane found I living cells. The model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipid, proteins and cholesterol.
The phospholipid is arranged in two layers comprising of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate group. The fatty acids which forms the tail are hydrophobic (water-fearing) while the phosphate group is water-loving (hydrophobic) giving the plasma membrane an AMPHIPATHIC nature. The other component as proposed by the model are membrane proteins and cholesterol, all responsible for the fluidity of the membrane.
Answer:
1. in animal cell and 3. in plant cell In animals mitochondria transforms energy and chloroplast in plant cell absorb energy from sun light and turns water and carbon dioxide into glucose
Explanation:
1. Mitochondria: It is the powerhouses of a cell oval in shape found in eukaryotic cell.Its a site of cellular respiration. It converts glucose in chemical energy known as ATP (Adenosine triphosphate). ATP provides energy to carry out cellular function by breaking high energy bond.Mitochondria are abundant in cells requires energy to perform functions such as muscle and liver cells.
2. Chloroplast: In plants and algae chloroplast is a site of photosynthesis,it contains a pigment chlorophyll which captures energy from sunlight and turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose as food of plants.
Answer:
B. Geographic Isolation
Explanation:
Speciation is a biological process that allows the generation of new species through existing species. Through conditions imposed by the environment in which this species lives.
Speciation is usually caused by geographic isolation.
Geographic isolation occurs when a population of the same species is separated by some type of natural barrier, such as rivers or mountains. This causes the population to be divided in two and begin to face different environments and different environmental conditions. This causes each part of the population to adapt in different ways, leaving them so different from one another that it is no longer possible to say that the two populations belong to the same species.
