<span>CCA stands for chromated copper arsenic. CCA is a wood preservative, which is in use since 1930. copper is the protective structure and arsenic is the insecticide used. Arsenic serves no purpose in protecting the timber, but it is the binding agent of other 2 chemcals. The best argument in terms of science would be , not to remove CCA- treated wood from the existing building structure. this wood preservative was banned due pressure from common and not scientific reason. The concern was on arsenic exposure. The exposure level of arsenic from the treated wood is far below fatal levels , than it could be seen in diet and drinking water. Hence doesn't harm children. A research also shows that after 45 years of treatment the exposure level is almost nil. Hence it is safe to have a CCA treated woods at home.</span>

If the diploid number in a liver cell is 52, how many chromosomes are there is the egg of this organism?
allsm [11]
Gametes or sex cells (sperm and eggs) contain half the number of chromosomes that exist in autosomal cells; they are haploid. Therefore in the case where the diploid number of chromosomes is 52, the haploid number would be half of that, meaning 52/2 = 26.

As a cell grows, it Select one: a. places more demands on its DNA. b. uses up food and oxygen more quickly. c. has more trouble
ankoles [38]

Answer:

D. All of the above

Explanation:

Just as when we grow and need more food and energy so does a cell. when a cell is growing there is more of it that can be utilized putting more stress on the DNA to code whatever it needs. The bigger the cell is the denser and thicker the cell membrane gets making it harder for materials to work its way in and out of the cell.

The majority of bacteria have a cell envelope. which component of the cell envelope is found in only some bacterial cells?
lesya [120]

The majority of bacteria have a cell envelope component which serves as an outer compartment.

Explain the Plasma membrane components.

The membrane that divides the interior of the cell from the external environment is known as the plasma membrane, sometimes known as the cell membrane, and is present in all cells.

A cell wall is affixed to the plasma membrane on the exterior of bacterial and plant cells. A semipermeable lipid bilayer makes up the plasma membrane. The movement of materials into and out of the cell is controlled by the plasma membrane.

A cell is protected by its cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane. Additionally, it offers a stable environment inside the cell. And that membrane serves a variety of purposes. One is to move compounds out of the cell that is harmful as well as nutrients into the cell.

Hence, the correct answer is the outer membrane.
