When cellular respiration occurs within a cell, carbon dioxide is formed as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is transported o

ut of the cell and absorbed by the blood stream. There, the carbon dioxide undergoes a chemical reaction and forms carbonic acid within the blood. When the carbonic acid reaches the capillaries in the lungs, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase helps reverse the reaction, and the carbonic acid is converted back to carbon dioxide and water. Which of the following would most likely happen if a person's body stopped producing carbonic anhydrase? The person would begin exhaling carbonic acid instead of carbon dioxide The person's breathing rate would slow down. The blood's acidity would increase and become toxic. The blood's volume would increase until a hemorrhage occurred.

What components of the eukaryotic cell were visible in the onion root tip? Which components were not? Why do you think some comp
ruslelena [56]

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.

One of the main reasons why mammals may have been able to evolve so quickly during the present era is due to the extinction of t
Allushta [10]

False, I'd say. Mammals usually adapt based on environment. Now, I know predators are "apart" of the environment, but I don't think that'd be it. I'd bet more money on saying mammals evolve based on environment adaptation. Sorry if I didn't answer your question or if I didn't get my point across well.
