Which statement best explains how the number of mitochondria in a cell relates to the specialization of a cell? A. Muscle cells

are easily destroyed. Since mitochondria are protein factories, they aid in the rebuilding of muscle cells. B. Muscle cells function in movement. Since cellular respiration releasing ATP occurs in the mitochondria, the muscle cells have a steady supply of energy. C. Muscle cells must function as a unit. Mitochondria serve as the link between muscle cells, which enable them to carry out the function of moving the skeleton. D. Mitochondria aid in the transport of nutrients through the cell. Since muscle cells require a steady supply of energy, many mitochondria are needed for this job.

Answer:

B is the correct option because, in a cell, <u>only mitochondria</u> generate and provide <u>energy</u> for muscle movement.

Explanation:

Mitochondria are known as a powerhouse of the cell because they perform <u>cellular respiration</u> and <u>generate energy as an ATP</u> (Adenosine Triphosphate) molecule. <u>Muscle cells function in movement and burn more energy that's why they have many mitochondria to fulfill energy demands.</u>

On the other hand, options <u>A, C, and D are not correct options </u>because mitochondria do not perform other services such as acting as protein factories, linker cells, nutrients transportation. The activities are performed by other organelles.

All organisms in an ecosystem are interrelated by the abiotic and biotic resources they use in the course of their lives:
jonny [76]

<span>a)      </span>The milkweed is the primary producer in the ecosystem. It manufactures food from the abiotic factors in the soil such as nitrates and water and those in the atmosphere such as carbon-dioxide and sunlight. The milk weed is then fed on by the caterpillar and a primary consumer. The caterpillar is then fed on the mocking bird (secondary consumer)

<span>b)      </span>Increased human population growth and their activities have resulted in the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This has increased the global temperature. This increase of global temperature increase ocean temperatures causing coral bleaching.

Another example is depletion of water sources by human activities hence causing drought. Drought reduces the amount of vegetation growth due to scarcity of water in the soil (due to lowering of the water table) for plant growth.

Hello. This question is incomplete. You forgot to attach the image that completes the question.

The image is attached below:

Answer:

A- Sensory Neuron

B- Spinal cord

C- Effector neuron

D - Brain

Explanation:

  1. Sensory neuron: Its main function is to allow the reception of stimuli that are transformed into nervous impulses and electrical signals, capable of realizing sensations, such as a peliscão, for example. These impulses are transmitted to the spinal cord.
  2. Spinal cord: The main function is to support the body in an upright and vertical position. It also has the function of transmitting electrical signals and nerve impulses between some parts of the body and the brain.
  3. Effector neuron: Its main function is to receive muscle stimuli capable of creating muscle contractions. These neurons are located in the spinal cord.
  4. Brain: the processing center receives all the stimuli sent by the bone marrow. Its main function, in this case, is to produce bodily responses to the stimuli it has received, producing muscle movement.
