Biology

mestny [16]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The cells found in the root of the plant normally lacks chloroplasts, as roots do not perform photosynthesis. The main function of chloroplast is photosynthesis.

Explanation:

The plant cell contains nucleus, cell wall, cell membrane, mitochondria, chloroplasts, vacuole, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes etc. Chloroplasts contain green pigments which give green color to the plants. The main function of chloroplast is photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the plants produce glucose and release oxygen by using carbon dioxide from the air, and absorbing water and nutrients from the soil. Using the glucose in the plants and oxygen, mitochondria produce energy.

The root system of the plants absorb water and nutrients from the soil. The absorbed water and nutrients are then transported to various parts of the plant to carry out processes like photosynthesis, maintaining turgor pressure etc. They have different types of cell which perform some specific functions. These cells also contain cell wall, cell membrane and mitochondria. Mitochondria provides energy for the active transport of water and nutrients. But chloroplasts are absent in root cells as they do not perform photosynthesis.

An enzyme that can bind to and break apart molecules of lactose should also be able to bind: a. fatty acids. b. amino acids. c.
Airida [17]

Answer: Option E) None of the above is true; this enzyme could bind none of these.

Explanation:

Lactose is a dissacharide composed of glucose and galactose. Hence, the enzyme lactase break down lactose into its simple sugar constituents.

However, lactase cannot bind nor break down amino acids, starch (with only glucose units) or sucrose (with two glucose units) because their constituent molecules differ markedly from that of lactose.

Thus, the enzyme lactase could bind with none of the options provided except lactose

How are cancer cells able to get nutrients away from your healthy cells?
chubhunter [2.5K]
<span>well this is an interesting question and i would say it may depend on what type of cancer cells you are growing and what type of "normal" cells your growing. One possibility is that cell fusion events may occur between your cancer cells and normal cells, thus creating a few options 1 - making the normal cell cancerous, 2 - making the cancer cell that fused with the normal cell not cancerous anymore. 3 - either way the fused cell will have a different genotype and hence be a different cell.</span>
