a cell is the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism
<span>Atherosclerosis is the general term for narrowing and hardening of the arteries due to plaque buildup. When this occurs in the vessels that supply the heart, it is termed coronary artery disease, or coronary heat disease.</span>
Answer:Filamentous fungi may contain multiple nuclei in a coenocytic mycelium. A coenocyte functions as a single coordinated unit composed of multiple cells linked structurally and functionally, i.e. through gap junctions. Fungal mycelia in which hyphae lack septa are known as "aseptate" or "coenocytic".
Coenocytic cells are present in diverse and unrelated groups of algae, including Xanthophyceae, red algae and green algae.
In the siphonous green algae Bryopsidales and some Dasycladales the entire thallus is a single multinucleate cell, which can be many meters across. However, in some cases, crosswalls may occur during reproduction.
Explanation:The green algal order Cladophorales is characterized by siphonocladous organization, i.e., the thalli are composed of many coenocytic cells.
In contrast to the Cladophorales where nuclei are organized in regularly spaced cytoplasmic domains, the cytoplasm of Bryopsidales exhibits streaming, enabling transportation of organelles, transcripts and nutrients across the plant.
We first have to understand what a vascular system is. A vascular system consists of the water-carrying tube(xylem) and food-carrying tube(phloem). These 2 tubes are very essential for plants to survive. The xylem transports water to the leaves thru the stem to nourish the leaves so as to make food. The word equation is : Water + Carbon dioxide ----> Glucose + Oxygen. The phloem on the other hand transports the food from the leaves that creates them amd sent them to all parts of the plant. It is often a misconception that food is only sent to the fruits. The plant receives nutrition from the food that is made by the leaves. Overall the vascular system plays a very importamt roles in the survival of the plant.
To put it simple, think of the vascular system of a plant like the circulatory system of a human. Without the circulatory system, the human is unable to receive oxygen for breathing and remove carbon dioxide which is acidic in nature and pose a threat to the human body.
