Answer:

Well, for one the amoeba is a unicellular organism and a mouse is a multicellular organism. An amoeba uses vacuoles to digest foods and a mouse uses a stomach. An amoeba digests when the food vacuoles go deeper into the cell and merge with specific enzymes to be able to digest food. The Amoeba lacks a stomach so this is how it digests. A mouse has a stomach to digest food similar to a humans.

Answer:          

A

The amoeba has a very simple digestion mechanism.

It obtains food by phagocytosis, breaks them down by the use of enzymes and absorbs the food into its cytoplasm by diffusion.

The rat chews up the food with teeth in its mouth, mixes it with saliva (which contains ptyalin - an enzyme) which helps to further break down food and then swallows to transport the masticated food into the stomach through its oesophagus.

In the stomach, the food is further broken down by gastric juices and bacteria that comes with the food is killed before the food is absorbed in the small intestine and cellulose is digested in the Caecum.

The food passes from the small intestine to the large intestine, where the water it contains is absorbed and the waste expelled via the anus.

B

In the Amoeba, the organelles are the most specialized structures. The organelles carry out a lot of cellular functions like the production of fuel and transportation of protein molecules.

In the rat, all its organs are specialized to carry out various functions. The digestive system is specialized, the central nervous systems are specialized, the skeletal system is specialized to its mechanical functions, the circulatory system is specialized etc.

Cheers!

Mark is on a strict diet. He has cut down on fats in order to lose weight. Because Mark is severely restricting his fat intake,
aivan3 [116]
Mark may be getting lower amounts of nutrients and vitamins, namely omega-3s and omega-6s. This would directly affect the brain and normal body functions because the body needs vitamins/nutrients to thrive. This could affect the chemical balance in his brain, resulting in depression/schizophrenia/other issues, including eating disorders. Cutting down on fats might also result in overeating carbs and protein, which leads to an overbalance of nutrients -- and a host of other health issues.Not getting enough fat could also affect bone growth.
Hope this helps:D

A population of plants produces flowers. The flowers are either brightly colored with no odor or are brightly colored with a rot
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: This brightly colored trait in this scenario is an example of natural selection

Explanation:

The aim of natural selection is to ensure the traits that make species better fitted to environmental pressures remain while other are eliminated.

Thus, the brightly colored trait in this scenario is an example of natural selection because:

- it appears in all population of the flower-producing plants making it well adapted to the environment.

- its emitting of no odor or rotting odor is simply a chemical defence mechanism in order to avoid from eaten by animals.
