Assuming this is basic high school level. Plant organelles and animal organelles are different. So here's both.
Mitochondria: Powerhouse of the cell, produces energy
Choroplasts: Produces energy in plants through photosynthesis- using light energy.
Endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough) - Make and export proteins and fats (lipids)
Lysosome- Contains enzymes, breaks down proteins
Cell membrane- Allows necessary chemicals in and out of the cell.
Cell wall: Holds the contents of a cell in. Expands to hold water. Only in plants.
Centrosome: Helps with the cell cycle
Vacuole: Storage space that holds water and solutions.
Nucleus: contains genetic material -DNA- and gives instructions to the cell
Golgi apparatus: Packages proteins intro membrane bound vesicles.
Ribosome: Making proteins (synthesis)
Next time, be a little more specific please!

mart [117]

Answer:

Snow line

Explanation:

The lowest elevation at which layer of a permanent snow occurs in the summer is known as the snow line.

Snow line is defined as the boundary between a snow covered area and a snow free one.

The lowest level connotes with the level of snow during the summer because the temperature is warm at this period in time. Below this level, all the glaciers are frozen and will not melt in any way.

During winter, the snow line can rise due to drop in temperature.

40% solution is Hypoter to a 75% solution. Describe what would happen to a cell?

REY [17]

Answer: What will happen to a cell if placed in a hypotonic solution?

A cell placed into a hypotonic solution will swell and expand until it eventually burst through a process known as cytolysis. These three examples of different solute concentrations provide an illustration of the spectrum of water movement based on solute concentration through the process of osmosis.
