It was how fast it was disappearing. Once the world's fourth largest lake, the Aral Sea in Central Asia has been losing water for half a century — ever since Soviet engineers began diverting the two rivers that sustain it, the Amu Darya and Syr Darya, in order to grow cotton in the desert.
Answer:
Explanation:
Although first discovered within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, nucleic acids are now known to be found in all life forms including within bacteria, archaea, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and viruses
Nucleus - regulates all cell activity, and also holds the DNA
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum - lipid and carbohydrate synthesis.
Rough er - produces and modifies proteins
Located next to the nucleus
Golgi apparatus - <span>modify, sort, and package macromolecules for cell secretion </span>
Ribosome - <span> assembles the twenty specific amino acid molecules to form the particular protein molecule</span>
Mitochondria - converts energy into compounds that are easier for the cell to use
Chloroplast -<span> captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into food that contains chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis</span>
Lysosomes - breaks down, recycles macromolecules (lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins)
Perioxisome - where hydrogen peroxide and other harmful molecules are broken down by enzymes
Plasma membrane - controls the kinds and amounts of substances moving into and out of the cell; helps maintain cytoplasmic volume and composition
Cytoskeleton - structurally supports, impacts shape and moves cell and its componants
Centrioles - two perpendicular cylinders that form mitotic spindle fibers and microtubules for cilia and flagella, helps organize cell division
Cytoplasm - holds all organelles in place
Vacuole - stores water, salts, protein, and carbohydrates
Vesicles - <span>contains substances that recently entered the cell. Stores and transports newly synthesized molecules.</span>
Cell wall - supports and protects the cell, rigid barrier
Answer:
1) A nucleotide consists of a single sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogen-containing base.
2) The monomer units of DNA are nucleotides, and the polymer is known as a "polynucleotide. Nucleotides don't have polymers because they are monomers.
3) They carry the genetic blueprint of a cell and carry instructions for the functioning of the cell. The two main types of nucleic acids are DNA and RNA.
