Why don't cells continue to grow as an organism grows larger

Biology
1 answer:
Vlada [557]3 years ago
6 0
Body cells don't live long. They only live a couple of weeks or months. The only thing is that white blood cells live a lot longer than red blood cells. They don't grow larger because cells are microscopic. They have to be able to fit through arteries and veins in the body. There must be enough to supply oxygen towards the organs in the body. Cells are made in the bone marrow and are produced in the same size. Unless you have a disease like sickle cell anemia, your cells are round, small, and microscopic.

Which of the following statements about metabolism are true? Catabolism is the process in which complex substances are broken do
Daniel [21]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
  • Catabolism is the process in which complex substances are broken down, yielding a net output of energy
  • Metabolism is an integrated system in which many of the same reactions participate in degradative (catabolic) and biosynthetic (anabolic) pathways.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Metabolism is the chemical processes occurring within a living cell or organism that are necessary for the maintenance of life. In metabolism some substances are broken down to yield energy for vital processes while other substances, necessary for life, are synthesized.
  • Catabolism is the metabolic breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones, resulting in a release of energy. These reactions are exothermic.
  • Anabolism involves the synthesis of polymeric biomolecules and complex lipids from monomers such as fatty acids and nucleotides. Anabolic reactions are endothermic.

Please help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

number 1 answer is 3.

number 2 energy is flowing upwards. ex grasshopper eats the grass, rat or whatever that is eats the grasshopper, and the hawk eats the rat. energy is going up each trophic level.

number 3. if the grass became polluted, then animals would get pollution in their bodies and at some point would die. eventually the grass would die too. primary consumers such as mouse, rabbit, grasshopper/snails would accumulate the most pollution because they directly eat the grass. whatever that is in the grass goes straight into their bodies.
