5 0

In order to survive, cells must satisfy some basic needs such as oxygen, water, nutrients, waste removal, and maintaining of homeostasis. Oxygen and nutrients are necessary for different processes inside the cell. For instance, cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to form energy in the form of ATP. Water is important for different chemical reactions, as well. Also, s the result of different processes, waste is produced and it is important to remove it from the cell. Finally, it is important that cell and whole body conditions do not vary so much and that homeostasis is maintained.

How do invasive species change the diversity index

LuckyWell [14K]

Las especies invasoras son animales, plantas u otros organismos que se desarrollan fuera de su área de distribución natural, en hábitats que no le son propios o con una abundancia inusual, produciendo alteraciones en la riqueza y diversidad de los ecosistemas. Cuando son transportados e introducidos por el ser humano en lugares fuera de su área de distribución natural, consiguiendo establecerse y dispersarse en la nueva región se les denomina especies exóticas invasoras resultando normalmente muy dañinas

Why does CaCl2 need to be added to cells to make them 'competent'? Why does CaCl2 need to be added to cells to make them 'compet

V125BC [204]

DNA is a negatively-charged molecule. Also cell membranes are negatively charged. The problem would be how to push this charges together? If you put some CaCl2 into the mixture, the CaCl2 will "split" giving 2Cl- and Ca2+. This last ion will be attracted by the negatively charged DNA and will "cover" it, hiding its negative charge. Hope this answers the question.

How does the ribosome know which protein to make?

bonufazy [111]

Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules are long strands of RNA nucleotides that directribosomes to make proteins. They travel from the nucleus to the ribosome. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules make up part of the ribosomes of the cell in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules transport amino acids to the ribosomes.
