Epithelial tissue constitutes an uninterrupted and continuous layer of cells. They form the linings of organs and body cavities for the protection. Epithelial cells are polarized with an apical surface which opposes the lumen of a tube or the external environment and a basal surface that attaches to the basal lamina. The epithelial tissues are specialized mainly for four functions, one of those function is protection, for this purpose they themselves are being Supported by the Connective Tissues. Epithelial cells are continuously renewed and these cells regenerate themselves with the help of mitosis. Cell linkages are well-employed in epithelial tissues.

What would happen if the electron transport system in the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis was disabled for some reaso
Andrei [34K]
The electron transport system in the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis is the one that is responsible for the production of electrons that are used as precursor for NADPH production. The NADPH and the other products that are made during the light dependent reaction are used during the dark reaction to produce sugar molecules. So, if the electron transport is disabled, glucose molecule will not be produced during the dark reaction.<span />

Phytoplankton are so tiny you need a microscope to see them. How do they affect the global carbon cycle?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Phytoplanktons are microscopic creatures that are primary producers of oceans. Phytoplanktons take carbon dioxide from atmosphere to make their food and then they are eaten by some other animals of oceans.

Phytoplanktons are present in huge numbers in oceans and have a great contribution to the carbon cycle because it is responsible for the transfer of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to the oceans.  

Most of the carbon is released through combustion by animals that eat phytoplanktons but some accumulate in the ocean floor because some dead phytoplanktons settles down in the ocean.
