Adjacent plant cells have narrow channels called plasmodesmata that pass through the cell walls of the connected cells and allow

a cytoplasmic connection between the cells.
Which of the following statements best describes a primary function of plasmodesmata?

1. They allow the movement of molecules from one cell to another, enabling communication between cells.
2. They prevent the cell membrane from pulling away from the cell wall during periods of drought.
3. They eliminate the need to produce signaling molecules and eliminate the need for cells to have receptors for signaling molecules.
4. They increase the surface area available for attachment of ribosomes and thus increase protein synthesis.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Plant cells are encompassed in cell walls that form the plant skeletal structure. However, the presence of abundant extracellular cell wall material means that plant cells physically do not touch. To enable intercellular communication, plants have evolved cytoplasmic bridges, called plasmodesmata (Sing- Plasmodesma) that links the fluid cytoplasm between adjacent cells. The plasma membrane of one plant cell is continuous with that of its neighbour at each plasmodesma.

A Plasmodesma (Plural- Plasmodesmata) is a narrow channel through the plant cell wall that acts as intercellular cytoplasmic bridges to bring about communication and transport of materials between plant cells. Plasmodesmata form an important route for communication between plant cells, allowing molecules to pass directly from cell to cell.

The plasmodesmata separate the outer cell membranes of the plant cells. The actual air space separating the cells is called the desmotubule.

Answer:1. They allow the movement of molecules from one cell to another, enabling communication between cells.

Explanation:the cell wall is a rigid and cellulose containing wall, which surrounds the plasma membrane.

During lignification, small pores appear on the cell wall through which cytoplasmic strands extend.these pores are the plasmodesmata,which provides connections between plant cells

The Cell Will Shrink

Hypertonic solutions have less water ( and more solute such as salt or sugar ) than a cell. Seawater is hypertonic. If you place an animal or a plant cell in a hypertonic solution, the cell shrinks, because it loses water ( water moves from a higher concentration inside the cell to a lower concentration outside ).

Answer:

b) estrutura que se desenvolveu do ovário e contém o embrião e reserva de alimento.

Explanation:

As sementes são formadas quando o pólen do estame se funde com os óvulos do carpelo. Existem duas porções de semente i. e. uma é a parte viva conhecida como embrião, enquanto a outra é a parte não viva conhecida como endosperma. O embrião é a planta bebê, enquanto o endosperma é o alimento armazenado de que a planta bebê necessita para seu crescimento e desenvolvimento no processo de germinação.re

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

1. codominance Both members of an allelic pair contribute to phenotype producing a mixture of phenotypic traits

2 . Rh factor: An inherited protein found on the surface of the red blood cell membrane

3 . hemophilia: A hereditary condition for bleeding due to the inability to clot properly

4 . holandric gene: A gene located on the Y chromosome in XY species

Explanation:

Codominance occur when a pure breeding White flower crosses with a pure breeding Red flower and gives PINK offspring

Rhesus Factor is an antigen that appears on the surface of red blood cells. it is an important factor to consider during blood transfusion.

Hemophilia is a sex-linked condition where the sufferer is unable to have a blood clot.

Holandric gene can ONLY be passed from males (carriers of XY chromosomes) to their sons
