One function of the central vacuole in plant cells is facilitating cell growth: the central vacuole absorbs water and increases

in size, expanding the volume and size of the plant cell while doing so. Animal cells, however, do not grow by this method. What is an essential difference between animal and plant cells that could explain how a plant cell can withstand this expansion of the central vacuole? View Available Hint(s) One function of the central vacuole in plant cells is facilitating cell growth: the central vacuole absorbs water and increases in size, expanding the volume and size of the plant cell while doing so. Animal cells, however, do not grow by this method. What is an essential difference between animal and plant cells that could explain how a plant cell can withstand this expansion of the central vacuole? Plant cells grow at a slower rate than animal cells. The plant cell wall provides a more rigid structure. Animal cells have a similar organelle that produces the same effect as the central vacuole. Plant cells cannot divide.

The right answer is The plant cell wall provides a more rigid structure.

Plant cells are differentiated from animal cells by the cell wall (among others, they differ in size, vacuoles and the presence of chloroplasts). This wall, called the pectocellulosic wall (composed of pectin and cellulose), gives a rigid structure to the cell and a polygonal morphology to the cell.

A eukaryotic gene contains 14 exons. Most of the transcripts from this gene contain all 14 exons, but some contain only 11 exons
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D. Alternative splicing is the mechanism that produce complexity in the genes by splicing some of the protein coding part (exons) of a genes

Explanation:

There are certain splicing enhancers sites present in Exons which facilitiates the binding of RNA binding protein specifically SR protein family rich in Serine and Arginine residues. This SR protein will help in splicing of exons.

The significance of this type of mechanism is the ability of a cell to produce an isoform of protein which have retain their function.

This mechanism also help is diversity or in short in evolution.

Which types of mutations in the lac operon stop Escherichia coli from utilizing lactose as a carbon source? a) promoter deletion
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

D.) repressor DNA-binding site mutation

Explanation:

lacl prevents the repressor polypeptide is a mutant that prevent operon from binding lactose, and thus will bind to the operator and be non-inducible.. This mutant will represses the lac operon whether lactose is present or not and the lac operon will not be expressed. It is also called“super-supperesor".

The lacI locus – One type of mutant allele of lacI (callled I-) prevents the production of a repressor polypeptide or produces a polypeptide that will not allow to bind to the operator sequence.

This is also a constitutive expresser of the lac operon because absence of repressor binding permits transcription.
