The correct answer is (d) A large central vacuole.

Plant cell has very large central vacuole that helps in maintaining the turgor pressure of the cell and it also helps in maintaining the stability of plant cell. The maximum amount of water is absorbed in the vacuole and helps to keep the cell erect. In mature plants the vacuole tend to very large and provides mechanical support to the cell. It also helps in waste disposal, protection, growth and storage of plant materials.

When does the cell have to use active transport?
kati45 [8]


The best answer is D.

In active transport, molecules move against a concentration gradient from areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. This happens a lot in neurons. The membrane proteins are constantly pumping ions in and out  to get the membrane of the neuron ready to transmit electrical impulses.

In active transport , energy is required to move molecules across the cell membrane. Carrier proteins are needed for this e.g. proteins of the GLUT family which transport glucose molecules across the cell membrane. Carrier proteins are very specific. GLUT proteins will only move glucose molecules and not sodium or calcium. There are hundreds of types of carrier proteins.

Discuss the relationship between mitosis and cytokinesis. What would be the result if one happened withother the other?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
Mitosis can only happen with cytokinesis. Mitosis is the process in which a cell goes through to produce two new cell nuclei. Cytokinesis is when the cytoplasm splits. Without cytokinesis, mitosis would still happen but it would create 2 nuclei in one cell. And if cytokinesis happened and mitosis did not then the cell would most likely not survive.

3. Explain why some lobsters may have one claw that is larger than the other claw.​
marta [7]

Answer:The larger, more menacing crusher claw also serves as a mating or sexual focus point, apparently the bigger the crusher claw the more attractive male lobsters are to female lobsters. Male lobsters develop proportionately larger claws than females of the same weight once they reach sexual maturity.
