Answer: A small middle portion of the sperm contains the mitochondria. The tail of the sperm, sometimes called the flagellum, is a slender, hairlike bundle of filaments that connects to the head and middle portion. The tail gives the sperm cell movement. It whips and undulates so that the cell can travel to the egg.

Mitochondria release energy from glucose since they're near the tail where the energy is needed. They are packed around the filament.

What is a prokaryote, and when did prokaryotes arise?
RideAnS [48]
<span>A prokaryote is a unicellular organism that belongs to either the domain Bacteria or the domain Archaea. Therefore, unlike a eukaryote, the prokaryote lacks in a nucleus and other organelles. The first organisms that appeared about 3.5 billions years ago were prokaryotes. They developed primitive forms of photosynthesis without oxygen as a waste. The first photosynthesizing prokaryotes appeared about 2.7 billion years ago which led to the changes in Earth atmosphere and consequently organisms dependant on oxygen could arise.</span>

Can someone help me? The question is State two scenarios that demonstrate the process diffusion​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

One could be in the cell. The cell respires, thus producing carbon dioxide in it. So the concentration builds up in the cell. Diffusion is the net movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, and the carbon dioxide concentration outside the cell is less, therefore the carbon dioxide molecules moves outs of the cell.

Another scenario is when perfume is sprayed into the air. The perfume particles collides with the air particles (lower or no concentration of perfume). This process goes on and on. This is diffusion since the concentration perfume particles collides with the less concentrated particles of perfume.

patriot [66]
<span>3) Oceans
The oceans are a massive carbon sink, and part of the positive reinforcement of the greenhouse gas cycle is that, as the oceans become warmer, then tend to release more carbon dioxide dissolved in the water which in turn drives temperatures warmer.</span>
