Why fresh water protozoa bear contractile vacuole?

Biology
1 answer:
Lerok [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It lacks a wall thus use the contractile vacuole to collect and expel excess water from the cell.

Explanation:

  • The contractile vacuole regulates the quantity of water inside a cell through a process known as osmoregulation.Osmosis constantly drives water in the cell since it is enclosed by a semipermeable membrane that can not keep the water out thus it is needed to prevent rupturing of the cell due to excess water in the cell.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Biological species contest.

Explanation:

Different species concept are introduced to describe the exact definition and classification of species. Some species concept are biological species contest, morphological species concept and ecological species contest.

According to biological species contest, the group of individual that can breed among themselves and not with the other group. Here, the Drosophila species has been classified by the biologist depending on their mating ability to their group of individual only.

Thus, the answer is biological species contest.

When an action potential arrives at the axon terminal of a motor neuron, which ion channels open?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Calcium voltage gated ion channels

Explanation:

There are two types of ion channels involved in the neuromuscular junction and end plate potentials: voltage-gated ion channel (responsive to changes in membrane voltage which cause the voltage gated ion channel to open) and ligand-gated ion channel (responsive to certain molecules such as neurotransmitters).

The resting membrane potential of a motor neuron goes from -70mV to -50 with a higher concentration of sodium outside and a higher concentration of potassium inside. <em>When an action potential propagates down a nerve and reaches the axon terminal of the motor neuron, the change in membrane voltage causes the calcium voltage gated ion channels to open allowing for an influx of calcium ions. </em>These calcium ions cause the acetylcholine vesicles  to release acetylcholine via exocytosis into the synaptic cleft.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

If an organism that is incubated on a kligler iron agar slant produces a red slant and yellow butt, this indicates that the orga
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Klinglers iron agar medium is used to find the enterobacteria which can ferment glucose , lactose and hydrogen Sulphide . They are H₂S producing bacteria .

This media have phenol red as an indicator. When the glucose is fermented to acid , the production of acid turn the indicator from red to yellow, but it is then reoxidised and turns red again . When lactose is fermented it produce large amount of acid , and turn indicator yellow . Hence the slant will become yellow.And combination of ferrous sulphate and sodium thiosulphate helps in detection of H₂S which produce black color at the butt .
