Explanation:
Monocots contain a single cotyledon in their seed and dicots contain two cotyledons. The nutrients in the endosperm of dicots is absorbed by the two cotyledons. Therefore, a tiny endosperm is found inside the dicot seed. However, the main difference between cotyledon and endosperm is in their function during seedling.
Answer:
The question is which organelle break down sugar molecules that supply energy to the cell. The answer is mitochondria. Mitochondria is referred to as the power house of the cell because it handles cellular respiration of the cell, which involves breaking down of sugar molecules to form energy in form of ATP.
Explanation:
Answer:
4. The suspected causative agent must be isolated from the diseased host and grown in pure culture
Explanation:
Robert Koch (1843-1910) was one of the most important bacteriologists of all time. Famous for discovering the tuberculosis bacillus (precisely on March 24, such as today, in 1882), he also discovered the cholera bacillus and is considered the founder of bacteriology. He worked on the isolation of infectious agents and reinfections from pure cultures, experiences from which he established the "Koch Postulates".
These postulates have been taken as a reference that describes the etiology of all the causative agents of an infectious disease, although they were originally used to describe only the tuberculosis bacillus. They are the following:
1- The agent must be present in each case of the disease and absent in the healthy.
2- The agent should not appear in other diseases.
3- The agent must be isolated in a pure culture from the lesions of the disease.
4- The agent has to cause the disease in an animal that can be inoculated
Answer:
As skin cells move toward the surface of the body, they produce a protein that reduces water loss. This process is called Keratinization.
Explanation:
Keratinization is a process which changes the stratum corneum of the skin to a hard cover which provides protection.
The process of keratinization involves polymerization of keratin polypeptides. The keratin polypeptides gets polymerized into intermediate filaments of keratin. Each of the intermediate filament of keratin constitute around 30,000 polypeptides of keratin.
