The Cell Membrane. All living cells and many of the tiny organelles internal to cells are bounded by thin membranes. These membranes are composed primarily of phospholipids and proteins and are typically described as phospholipid bi-layers.

How does the mass of Venus compare to the mass of the Earth?<br>(Give Me A Paragraph)
tamaranim1 [39]
<span> Both are similar in size, mass, density, and volume. However, during the last few years scientists have found that the kinship ends here. Venus is very different from Earth. It has no oceans and is surrounded by a heavy atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide with virtually no water vapor. Its clouds are composed of sulfuric acid droplets. At the surface, the atmospheric pressure is 92 times that of the Earth's at sea-level.</span><span> </span>

Drag the following examples to the correct type of species interactions that they exhibit.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

I believe the options are:

  1. Birds feed in berries produced by a tree. The birds receive a food source and the tree is able to disperse its seeds.
  2. An egret follows cattle in a field eating insects that are stirred  up. The egret receives a food source and the cattle are  unaffected.
  3. Abundance of host decreases.
  4. Abundance of both species increases.
  5. Ticks feed on the blood of a deer. The tick receives  vital nutrients and the deer is left weakened.
  6. Abundance of parasite increases.
  7. Abundance of one species increases, and the other is  not affected.

Species Interactions:

The correct species interactions are:

Parasitism:

3. Abundance of host decreases.

5. Ticks feed on the blood of a deer. The tick receives vital nutrients and the deer is left weakened.

6. Abundance of the parasite increases.

Commensalism:

2. An egret follows cattle in a field eating insects that are stirred  up. The egret receives a food source and the cattle are  unaffected.

7. Abundance of one species increases, and the other is  not affected.

Mutualism:

4. Abundance of both species increases.

1. Birds feed in berries produced by a tree. The birds receive a food source and the tree is able to disperse its seeds.

Explanation:

Species Interactions:

Species interactions are relationships between different members of a community. The main types are:

  1. Competition
  2. Parasitism
  3. Mutualism
  4. Commensalism
  5. Predation

Parasitism:

A relationship between two organisms in which one organism (parasite) lives in or on the host, derives its nutrients from the host and in turn, harms the host. In the above examples, the ticks feeding on deer blood derive nutrients from the deer but harm the deer as a result.

Commensalism:

A species interaction that involves one organism deriving benefits from another but the other neither loses nor gains any benefits i.e. the other organism is unaffected. In the above examples, the egret uses the cattle to find food but in turn the cattle are unaffected.

Mutualism:

In mutualism, both the organisms receive benefits from the species interaction. In the above examples, the birds benefit from the tree by retrieving nutrients and in turn the tree benefits in the dispersal of its seeds.

Protists are very diverse, and many different classification schemes have been used to define relationships between the protists
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

D. heterotrophic by ingestion, pseudopods

Explanation:

Protists are generally classified  as all eukaryotic organisms that are not plants, animals or fungi. Example is amoeba, paramecium etc.They may be unicellular or multi cellular in nature.Most exist in colonies.

Their mode of nutrition can be photosynthetic or hetrotrophic. Hetrotrophic  protists   can be divided into  phagotrophs and osmotrops/saprotrophs. The phagotrophs  makes use of the cell body to engulf the food materials as  in amoeba ,carry out extracellular digestion before swallowing it.

Osmotrops absorbed dissolved food from surrounding liquid environments directly. (Some photosynthetic protists can also be heterotrophic.

Amoeboid movement is the mode of locomotion of protists and some  other eukaryotes. It involved the protrusion of cytoplasm, which exert pressure on the cell membrane to form pseudopodia and  the posterioly  evolved  <u>Uropods. </u>

<u />

<u>  </u>

<u>Sol-gel theory has been proposed to expalin this movements, The ectopalsm of amoeba is gelly-like , while the endiplams is less viscpus   and said to be sol. The interchange of the cytoplasmic fluis between the endo-and ecto plasm gives the SOL-GEL propulsion of the protopalms for the amoebic moveemnts .</u>

<u />

<u>The false feet(psuedopodium) drags the amoeba  along in the direction of the flow of the cytoplasm.</u>

Therefore option D is  the right option
