What are some examples of how a cell's structure relates to its function in the body?

The structure and shape of each type of human cell depends on what function it will perform in the body. For example, red blood cells (RBCs) are very small, flat discs, which allows them to easily fit through narrow capillaries and around sharp corners in the circulatory system to deliver oxygen throughout the body.

The elongated shape of muscle cells allows the contraction proteins to line up in an overlapping pattern that makes muscle flexing possible.

And human sperm cells’ structures allow them to “swim” long distances to reach an egg for fertilization

4. Use your knowledge about the relationship between nutrients and photosynthesis to explain the trends you observed in the data
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The trends go up in the presence of nutrients.

Explanation:

There is a great relationship between nutrients and photosynthesis because photosynthesis can't occur without without the availability of nutrients. Plants uses carbon from the atmosphere which is a nutrient whereas other nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium etc from the soil with the help of the roots. If these nutrients are available in the surrounding, the plant produced more food during photosynthesis because these nutrients are the food of plants so the trends go up in the presence of nutrients and lowers down in the absence or lower concentration of nutrients.

If the nucleotide sequence on one side of a DNA molecule is CCTAGCT, then the sequence on the complementary strand of DNA will b
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:GGATCGA

Explanation:

The complementary double helix of the DNA are antipararell to each other.

Chargaff's rule state that Adenine always pairs with thymine (double bond) and Cytosine always pairs with guanine (triple bond).

Therefore if a DNA molecule is CCTAGCT, then the sequence on the complementary strand of DNA will be GGATCGA as written below

5' CCTAGCT 3'

3' GGATCGA 5'

A mutation that results in a single amino acid substitution in Ras abolishes its ability to hydrolyze GTP, even when GTPase-acti
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The new drug will not be effective against the treatment of cancer.

Explanation:

The drug will not be effective against the cancer treatment because the drug will inhibit the dimerization of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) but as the Ras has undergone mutation due to replacement of one amino acid, it will be constitutively expressed and the drug is not effective in stopping the Ras functioning.

Thus, Gefitinib cannot work against the cancerous cell as it is not potent to stop the functioning of mutant Ras protein.
