<span>Active and passive transport help to maintain homeostasis because they transport fluid/water/materials across the plasma lemma (cell membrane). All of these materials need to exist in certain ratios for the cell to function properly. </span>
Virus: an infective agent that typically consists of a nucleic acid molecule in a protein coat, is too small to be seen by light microscopy, and is able to multiply only within the living cells of a host.
Bacteria: a member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms which have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucleus, including some which can cause disease.
Fungi/fungus: any of a group of spore-producing organisms feeding on organic matter, including molds, yeast, mushrooms, and toadstools.
Protozoa: a phylum or group of phyla that comprises the single-celled microscopic animals, which include amoebas, flagellates, ciliates, sporozoans, and many other forms. They are now usually treated as a number of phyla belonging to the kingdom Protista.
All the cells in a person's body have the same DNA and the same genes. However, the difference between cells in different tissues and organs is that the "expression" of the genes differs between cells. Expression means that the message from the DNA is being copied and made into protein.
Seasonal variations of climate impact the state of an ecosystem. In areas that experience a cold season, some elements of the ecosystem change their residence or even hibernate to survive. Succession can be considered a higher state of development of the ecosystem.
Good luck!
