This is the exact answer:

Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted on the cell wall of a plant. It is caused by the movement of water into the cell. When a plant cell stores substances like ions or sugars, the amount of substances inside and outside the cell are no longer equal. There are more substances inside the cell. This causes water to rush into the cell, increasing the pressure on the cell wall. The cell swells up, helping the plant to stand upright.

Pressure exerted by fluid in a cell that presses the cell membrane against the cell wall. Turgor is what makes living plant tissue rigid. Loss of turgor, resulting from the loss of water from plant cells, causes flowers and leaves to wilt.

vichka [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be

1. Striated

2. Multiple

3. Broken down

4. Tendon

Explanation:

Skeletal muscles are the voluntary muscles found in the human body.

These muscles are made up of muscle fibers or muscle cells which look striated in appearance with many peripheral nuclei. The muscle helps in the locomotion of the body through controlled actions which help in the multiple types of movement.

The muscle moves when it receives impulse signals from the CNS which leads to the utilization of the ATP, the ATP is broken down which helps in the contraction of the muscle. The muscle is connected to the bone via a connective tissue called tendon, as the muscle contracts, it moves the tendon which helps in the locomotion.

Thus, the marked answers are the correct options.

Extreme cold conditions injures the cell in different ways, however decreasing blood viscosity is not one of them. Actually, hypothermia causes the opposite effect, it increases the blood pressure. The body reaction to hypothermia is to increase heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure as an attempt to warm the organs.
