Answer:

flat bone

Explanation:

Bones are very hard whitish organs that unite with others through the joints or joints make up the Skeleton. It is a specialized form of connective tissue whose main feature is the mineralization (calcium) of its bone matrix (collagen and proteoglycan fibers). There are several types of bones, of which flat bones are described below.

Flat bones are thin bones and consist of two parallel blades of compact bone tissue, with a layer of cancellous bone between them. Flat bones provide considerable protection and generate large areas for muscle insertion. These are the bones most likely due to muscle fixation in the legs.

Compare and contrast the role of secretory vesicles, the lysosome, and the peroxisome.
Daniel [21]

Lysosomes ( common in animal cell but rare in plant cells) contain hydrolytic enzymes necessary for intracellular digestion in white blood cells that eat bacteria) lysosomes contents are carefully released Into the cytoplasm can also cause cell death.  

Peroxisomes: this organelle is responsible for protecting the cell form its own production of toxic hydrogen peroxide. As an example, white blood cells produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bacteria .The oxidative enzymes in peroxisomes break down the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

Secretory vesicles: cell secretions –e.g, hormones, neurotransmitters, are packaged in secretory vesicles at the Golgi apparatus. The secretory vesicles are then transported to the cell surface for releases.

Which of the following are characteristics of archaeal cell membranes that probably help them survive at very high temperatures?
torisob [31]

Answer:

Option-B, C and E

Explanation:

Archaebacteria are a group of prokaryotes which can survive the extreme conditions. The archaebacteria which can survive very high temperature are called hyperthermophiles. The hyperthermophilic bacteria can survive temperature range between 70 t 125 °C observed in hydrothermal vents.

The archaea bacteria can withstand the high temperature as their membrane is adaptive. The membrane of the archaea is more stable due to the ether linkage which makes carbon less chemically reactive. The phospholipids possess a monolayer which decreases the layer fluidity and thus the unwanted movement of molecules.

The archaea also contain cyclopentane rings in the ester-linked phospholipids which allows tight pacing of the molecules which decrease the movement of solute into and out of the cell.

Thus, the selected options are correct.

What is the source of the genetic information that determines the traits of a Pacific tree frog?
Tema [17]
The answer to the question above is letter D. <span>Chromosomes found in the cell nucleus.</span>
In the cell nucleus, DNA is tightly packed into the thread-like structure known as chromosomes. Every chromosome is made up of tightly coiled DNA around proteins (histones) that support its structure. Chromosomes are not visible when there is no cell division. It cannot be seen in the cell’s nucleus nor under the finest microscope. They are only visible when the cell is dividing and is apparently visible under a microscope.
