Looking at the onion root tip under the microscope you can see large, rectangular cells with visible distinct cell walls surrounding it (cells have a more regular shape because of the wall). Inside the cells, you can notice darkly stained nucleus, large vacuoles at the center and sometimes small granules within the cytoplasm. Looking the onion root tip under the microscope is often the way to observe mitosis. Usually, you cannot see organelles such as mitochondria, ribosomes, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, centrioles and Golgi body as they appear translucent and because are too small to be seen under the light microscope (electron microscope required). Also, chloroplasts are not present in an onion cell because it is not a photosynthetic cell.

How does science shape our world?
Ratling [72]
Science isn't just gathering factual information and data, it's a body of knowledge. It's a way of thinking about problems, and how to solve them. Science shapes everything in our world since everything revolves around natural rules.

It's thanks to computer <em>science </em>that you're able to be on this site right now. It's thanks to <em>science </em>as a whole that we have any of the technology we have today, and the cures for the many once <em>deadly </em>diseases. So, if you want to know how science shapes our world... Just look around you. =)

Which is the most common type of intercellular junction between cells of the bladder?
USPshnik [31]
<span>Tight junctions, at the site of a tight junction, cells are held tightly against each other by many individual groups of tight junction proteins called claudins, each of which interacts with a partner group on the opposite cell membrane. For example, the tight junctions between the epithelial cells lining your bladder prevent urine from leaking out into the extracellular space.</span>

Choose any electromagnetic wave we have discussed and write ONE PARAGRAPH telling me about the uses/benefits of that electromagn
uysha [10]

Answer:

A gamma-ray, or gamma radiation, is a penetrating form of electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It consists of the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves and so imparts the highest photon energy. Paul Villard, a French chemist, and physicist discovered gamma radiation in 1900 while studying radiation emitted by radium. In 1903, Ernest Rutherford named this radiation gamma rays based on their relatively strong penetration of matter; in 1900 he had already named two less penetrating types of decay radiation alpha rays and beta rays in ascending order of penetrating power.

Explanation: hope this helps :)

katrin [286]
The one that makes the most sense to me, would have to be B. A would not be a benefit at all. While C doesn't necessarily makes sense as the device is only designed to capture energy from ocean waves. And D doesn't make sense to me in general.
