Rob Dunn noticed that the prokaryotes his team discovered in the belly buttons of volunteers were able to quickly take over an a

rea due to their rapid growth rate. Which of the following statements explain why prokaryotes are able to divide so fast?
(a) DNA replication is faster,
(b) no organelle,
(c) microscopic in size, smaller than eukaryotic cell, (d) slow metabolic rate

Answer:

DNA replication is faster and microscopic in size, smaller than eukaryotic cell.

Explanation:

The three domains of life are archaea, bacteria and eukarya. The two main biological division are prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The organisms that lacks the complete nucleus are included in prokaryotes.

The DNA replication is quite fast in prokaryotes as compared to eukaryotes because of small genome size, transcription is coupled with the translation and no post transcription modification is present in prokaryotes. The size of prokaryotes is quite small as compared with eukaryotes and shows the fast rate of diffusion.

Thus, the answer is option (a) and (c).

Igoryamba
A bacterial promoter sequence must be included. The coding exons control the actual production of the protein that the gene codes for; meanwhile, the promoter sequence serves to initiate transcription of the specific genes. Promoters are included upstream of the DNA molecule at the start site of the gene.

Which kidney process ensures that essential compounds such as vitamins and amino acids are not lost through urination?
wariber [46]
Filtration

<span>Urea is the cellular waste product that the kidneys remove from the blood.Kidneys are the two bean shaped organs that has several functions to keep the body healthy. It not only removes urea from the blood, but also helps in the formation of urine and maintaining the fluid level of the body. The two kidneys are placed on the two sides of the spinal cord. The blood enters the kidney through the renal artery. The nephron within the kidneys mainly take out the waste products and the excess water from the blood and purifies it.If the kidneys of a person fail to work properly then it becomes important to perform dialysis for taking out the waste materials from the blood.</span>

Why is diffusion important for cells? Why is diffusion important for cells?
san4es73 [151]
Diffusion is essential for cells to bring nutrients and releasing wastes WITHOUT spending energy. This is accomplished by the "urge" of a system to achieve equilibrium, which means that materials tend to flow from high concentration to low concentration area. For example, if a cell lacks amino acids, and therefore has a low concentration of it inside the cell compared to the outside, then by diffusion, the amino acids outside will flow in through the membrane until the concentrations of amino acids outside and inside the cell are the same. All these are done without spending energy from the cell. Note, however, that simple diffusion cannot transport larger particles or those insoluble in lipids; these materials have to be transported with facilitated diffusion, where a carrier on the membrane of the cell will help bring in the materials.
<span>Diffusion is when particles in a more concentrated area move to a less concentrated area, through a semi- permeable membrane. Without diffusion, the cells in your body will not be able to obtain the resources they need to survive, like water and proteins.</span>

Which time is most likely an outlier?<br> 66 s<br> 68 s<br> 70 s<br> 78 s
IRISSAK [1]

78 seconds is most likely an outlier.

This is because 66, 68, and 70 seconds are all within 2 seconds apart from each other. Whereas 78 seconds is 8 seconds more than 70 seconds making it an outlier.
