irakobra [83]3 years ago

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

netineya [11]
If there are no rocks in a desert then the prey would rapidly decrease due to no rocks for shelter or hiding, once they do food will be scarce for the predators causing the predator population to also decrease meaning that the life in the desert will decrease by 80%, leaving barely any wildlife left.

Biology students use raw eggs an experiment on tonicity and osmosis. students put their eggs into vinegar to remove the shelves.
8_murik_8 [283]

The vinegar removed only the shell of the egg because it was acidic. But it was unable to mess with the egg, because as it removed the shell of the egg, it was unable to get past the sac, the part that protects the inner egg. It is hard to puncture this sac, unless dropped or punctured by a nail or something hard.
