Answer:

chitin and murein

Explanation:

The chemical compounds that distinguish bacteria cell from yeast cell are  

chitin and murein

Chitin is a polysaccharide present in the exoskeleton of fungi made up of chains of modified glucose known as N-acetylglucosamine. N-acetylglucosamine is derived from glucose

While murein is a mesh like structure made up of sugar and amino acids. Murein forms a layer outside the plasma membrane of bacterial cell.

Answer:

Peptidoglycan and chitin.

Explanation:

Bacteria and yeast differ from each due to the different chemical composition of their cell wall.

Chitin: chitin is a large structural polysaccharide that is derived from chains of modified glucose. It is the primary components of cell wall in fungi such as yeast. Chitin is a minor component in the yeast cell wall, it accounts for only 1-2% of the cell wall dry mass. Chitin contributes to the mechanical strength of the cell wall.

Peptidoglycan: Peptidoglycan also known as murein is a polymer that makes up a the cell wall of a bacterium. It is composed of sugars and amino acids. A bacteria is a unicellular organism, therefore Peptidoglycan gives strength to the outer structure of the organism.

predict what might happen to a population that is experiencing little immigration and emigration, low birth rate, and high death
bezimeni [28]
The population will later, cease to exist.

Since the population is experiencing (about) the same rates of immigration and emigration, these 2 factors will not change anything.

A low birth rate and a high death rate means that more people are dying than being born.

Therefore the population will decrease until there is nobody and it will cease to exist.

How does exercise affect a person's body and homeostasis?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

In explanation.

Explanation:

-Exercise effects on the person's body and homeostasis.

Exercise stimulates the sympathetic nervous system and will induce an integrated response from the body; This response works to maintain an appropriate level of homeostasis for the increased demand in physical, metabolic, respiratory, and cardiovascular efforts.

-The Effect of Exercise on Homeostasis

1. Increased Oxygen Consumption.

2. Increased Oxygen Delivery.

3. Increased Body Temperature.

4. Increased Release of Carbon Dioxide.

5. And more.

All eukaryotic cells have a cytoskeleton, including plant cells, which have cell walls as well. What does the cytoskeleton in a
elena-s [515]
It acts as a framework inside the endoplasmic  reticulum  and keeps it from collapsing . it helps keep the organelles in place and directs their movement as needed . it keeps the DNA safely enclosed in the nucleus and holds the nucleus together . it provides anchoring places for the cell cytoplasm and help it move molecules .      maybe that help :)
