Answer:

Cells are the basic structure and unit of life. There are prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are very basic, and have no nucleus, few organelles, and are ususally bacteria. Eukaryotic cells are more complex and have nuclei, are larger compared to prokaryotic cells, more organelles, and have emembrane bound organelles. There are plant and animals cells, each have certain organelles that other don't. For example, plant cells have large vacuoles and a cell wall; animal cells have centrioles. Cells are important because they provide strucure for the body, and take in nutrients from food and carry out many important functions, such as protein synthesis, respiration, growth and development, and more. Billions of cells make up a complex organism's body, while a single cell can make up an entire organisms, and carry out all of the needed functions. That's a quick summary of what cells are, and some of the things that they do that make them so important

What happens to a sedimentary rock after tectonic plates push upwards? What would it turn into?

tester [92]

Hi, sounds like it would turn into B). Metamorphic Rock. Igneous rocks are only formed when melted rock hardens and solidifies. Sediimentary rock is formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity or even water. I Doubt it would remain a sedimentary rock so the best answer would be metamorphic rock. Hope this was correct. :)

How is mitosis important for sexual reproduction?

LuckyWell [14K]

Mitosis is important for sexual reproduction indirectly. It allows the sexually reproducing organism to grow and develop from a single cell into a sexually mature individual. This allows organisms to continue to reproduce through the generations.
