A cell membrane pump helps human cells to maintain a relatively constant sodium and potassium  concentration.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sodium potassium pump is a plasma membrane protein that utilizes energy ATP — Triphosphate Adenosine turning into ADP — Adenosine Diphosphate to deliver intracellular and extracellular sodium (NA+) and potassium (K+) ions sequentially. The purpose of this entire mechanism is to preserve cell equilibrium.

The extracellular medium has a greater concentration of Na while the K concentration of the intracellular fluid is lower. Proteins trap sodium ions in the cytoplasm and pump them out from the cells to preserve cell stability while preserving concentrations. Within the cells proteins inject potassium ions into the cell.

A cell undergoing cell division identifies a chromosomal misalignment. How does this normally affect the progress of the cell cy
telo118 [61]

When a cell undergoing cellular division identifies that a chromosome misalignment had taken place the cell cycle stops until the error it's corrected.

Option two of the question states that the cell cycle will <u>proceed uncontrollably, this is not the case for the error at hand</u>. Although this can be a problem for cells and leads to the appearance of cancer, it is not caused by chromosome misalignment. As is the case with options 3 and 4.

The stop or delay in the <u>cell cycle is what normally takes place in these situations.</u> This stoppage is done by the <em><u>spindle checkpoint</u></em>, which prevents <u>duplicate chromosomes from separating.</u>

During this time, the error it's corrected. If a cell is not able to correct the error at this time, many situations can follow. <u>However, the most likely is that the cell will undergo a <em>programmed cellular death.</em> </u>

Why do plant cells have a cell wall and plant cells don’t?
Minchanka [31]
So animal cells can have various shapes, but plant cells only havethe shapes of their cell walls. That's nice for plants, because it gives them the ability to grow up and out, where they can get lots of sunlight for making their food.

In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls allow plants tohave rigid structures as varied as wood trunks and supple leaves; and vacuoles allow plant cells to change siz
Exactly why plant cell have wall and animal cell don't :-Cell walls are supporting structures that help the plant to have a fixed shape and protect it from injury. Other than that, it helps to keep the plant turgid so that it can stay firm and upright. Because when it enters a high water potential solution, as water moves in, the water exerts turgor pressure on the cell wall and the cell wall thus exerts an opposing pressure to keep water out. Hence cell wall is needed for the plant.

On the other hand, animal cells do not need to keep the structures, as they have the skeletal system to protect the organs and cushion them against any external Injuries.
