D.) Because the leaf is coated in lipid molecules

A is wrong because water is polar, an example of nonpolar is oil, and everyone knows that oil and water do <em>not</em> mix! Their molecules just aren't attracted to each other.

B is wrong because, like I said, water is polar.

C is wrong because cellulose is one of the most abundant organic compounds on the Earth, and it's a major component of the cell walls in plant cells.

<h2>Cell Cycle </h2>

Explanation:

Eukaryotes grow and divide by cell cycle.

The main parts of a cell cycle are an ordered series of events – Gap 1 or G1 phase, Synthesis or S phase, Gap 2 or G2 phase, and the mitosis or M phases.  

Interphase period (G1, S, G2 phases) - cell grows by size, duplicates its content, replicates its DNA, and finally prepares for mitotic cell division .

Mitosis and cytokinesis - formation of two identical daughter cells

Cell cycle is regulated by regulatory or restrictive checkpoints in the cell cycle which are activated with detection of a defective DNA.

Proliferation of undesired or cells with defective DNA like in case of tumor cells is controlled by the action of suppressing agents like p53 and cyclins.

The tumor suppressor gene protein p53 prohibits division of tumor cells. Cyclins regulate cell cycle by activation of the enzyme cyclin-dependent kinase.

QUICK QUESTIONS!! THANK YOU!!<br><br>Why do we have limestone?<br><br>what do iron bands mean?
andriy [413]
First question is - Why do we have limestone? Formed from this type of sediment are biological sedimentary rocks. Their biological organ is often revealed in the rock fossils. Some limestones can form by direct precipitation of calcium carbonate from marine or fresh water. (The second question is) - What do iron bands mean? The rocks are "banded" because the iron minerals deposited in alternating bands with silica and sometimes shale. The banding might have resulted from seasonal changes in organism activity steel mill. Most iron ore is used to make steel. Here a steel slab is being cut to length in a steel mill.

Which statement provides the best description of the interphase portion of the cell cycle?- Interphase is a resting stage prior
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

During interphase, a cell is metabolically active

Explanation:

Cell cycle is divided into two stages: interphase (lasts 3/4 of the cycle) and phase M (1/4 of the cycle).

Interphase is also divided into three stages:

Phase G1

Protein and RNA synthesis is done.

Phase S

DNa synthesis is done.

Phase G2

Protein synthesis continues and the cell grows to start the division.
