Makovka662 [10]

Answer: A. protein like tubules

B. Microtubules

C. Microfilaments

Explanation:

Cytokinesis in the bacteria is facilitated by the presence of these conserved tubulin-like proteins. Due to the fact that their walls are flexible, constriction of these walls is possible aiding in cytokinesis. Unlike in plant that have rigid cell wall, a cell plate is involved in the formation of a new cell wall between the daughter cells. Network of microtubules determines the position of the cell plate which is mostly like a disc in the middle of the two daughter cells. Cleavage furrow occurs in animal cells which is caused by the action of the contractile ring: a ring of actin microfilament.

makes up the majority of a plant

Explanation:

Ground tissues are one of the three types of plant tissues (others being dermal and vascular). They are composed of cells as follows: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. These three cells that make up the ground tissues perform different functions in the plant cell.

- Parenchyma functions in photosynthesis and storage of extra food (carbohydrates) in the cell.

- Collenchyma functions in the support of young regions of the plant

- Sclerenchyma, which has the thickest cell wall, functions mainly in the strengthening/support of the plant cell.

Also, among the three tissue types in a plant, ground tissues make up majority of the plant cell.
