Living cells require constant access to energy in order to remain alive. Which statement BEST describes why cells need a constan
t supply of energy? A) Without energy, cells would not be able to access food resources. B) Without energy, cells would be forced to enter into a state of dormancy. C) Energy is required to process genetic information--without an active DNA molecule, cells will be unable to function. D) Energy is required in order to maintain homeostasis--without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
D) Energy is required in order to maintain homeostasis--without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
Explanation:
Homeostasis is the condition of relative stability that the body needs to perform its functions properly for the body's balance.
Despite changes that may occur in the body, internally or externally, homeostasis is the constancy of the internal environment (interstitial fluid). Keeping at an appropriate temperature (37º C) ensuring that the necessary changes to the body occur; and thus the cells of the body develop.
Because of homeostasis, cells need a constant supply of energy. That's because energy is needed to maintain homeostasis - without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
an increase in sucrose in food would increase the sucrose concentration inside the body thus increasing sucrase activity until it reaches its saturation point (approx 30g/l) if im correct
