Red blood cells are disc shaped. It is thought one factor that allows them to have this shape is because they do not have a nucleus. This tends to increase amount of space inside the cell for hemoglobin.
They have a flexible disc shape which helps increase the surface- to- area volume ratio which enables oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse across the red blood cell's plasma membrane more readily.
Their disc shape also enables them to squeeze through tiny capillaries that are half their size .
Answer: - Predict an unknown genotype of a purebred dominant plant.
Explanation:
The genetic make up of the organism is called as the genotype. It describes the form of genes or allelic forms present in the organism. A test cross is used to determine the genotype of the organism. In this cross the organism with the unknown genotype is done with that of the organism with the known genotype. It also determines the fact that the organism is either homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
On the basis of the above description, Predict an unknown genotype of a purebred dominant plant.
Answer:
takes substances captured from the external environment (air and carbon sources) and converts them into energy for building more cells and tissues and for carrying out life-sustaining activities. It also generates waste products and water.
Explanation:
The cell will incorporate solvent - water. When a plant cell contains more solutes than its surrounding environment it means that it is in a hypertonic state, the osmotic gradient will increase and the water will tend to enter the cell augmenting the t<span>urgor pressure inside the cell wall. Ultimately, it will cause water to enter the plant and reach the cell.</span>
