Answer:

Plant cells need chloroplast as they are the site for photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The chloroplast is the green-colored double membrane-bound organelles present mostly in cells of leaves of green plants. Chloroplasts have chlorophyll pigments which serve to trap the sunlight for the process of photosynthesis. Both light-dependent and light-independent phases of photosynthesis take place in chloroplast to form organic sugars.

Hence, chloroplasts serve as a site for photosynthesis in plants.

Q? Describe the concentration gradient of carbon dioxide across the cell membrane.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide goes with the concentration gradient across the cell membrane. It goes in the direction of the concentration gradient, from high concentration to low concentration.

Explanation:

CO_{2} undergoes simple diffusion, which is an example of passive transport. Passive transport diffusion goes with the concentration gradient, while on the other hand, active transport goes against the concentration gradient.

Going with the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. This is what carbon dioxide does.

Going against the concentration gradient means that the molecules move from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration. This goes against the concentration gradient.

Do you think that there should be a standard when participating medicine and science ?
9966 [12]
Honestly, this is supposed to be your opinion, but I will give you mine. I think there should by far be a quality standard, that they should always provide good quality things. It all just depends on what kind of standard they are talking about or what the question is referring to. If there are experiments going on, there should definitely be a certain standard of safety and ensure that the person would come out alive. I hope that this could help a bit, and I apologize if this was not the type of standard in which you were looking for. If you need further help, you can send a DM my way and I will respond when I get the chance. Have an amazing day!

Which of the following cause the ventricles to contract?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

D. All of the above

Explanation:

In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages;

1. Diastole : in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood.

2. Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria.

Cardiac output can be defined as the volume of blood that is being pumped by the mammalian heart through the left and right ventricle per unit time (minute).

The following conducting systems of the heart cause the ventricles to contract;

I. Atrioventricular (AV) node: it's a component of the electrical conduction system of the mammalian heart located in the Koch triangle which connect the ventricles and atria electrically.

II. Atrioventricular (AV) bundle: it's a specialized tissue that transmits electrical impulse from the atrioventricular (AV) node to the Purkinje fibres of the ventricles.

III. Purkinje fibers: it's a network of specialized cells that comprises of glycogen and they transmit cardiac action potentials in a rapid manner from the atrioventricular (AV) bundle to the myocardium of the ventricles.

Furthermore, the right atrioventricular valve (AV) also referred to as the tricuspid valve is located on the right dorsal side of the human heart. The right atrioventricular valve (AV) comprises of three (3) leaflets (flaps) which opens and closes in order to allow for the flow of blood from the right atrium of the human heart to the right ventricle. Also, the right atrioventricular valve is saddled with the responsibility of preventing blood from flowing backward in the mammalian heart.
