The ability to internalize material from outside the cell is important for several cellular processes including the ingestion of essential nutrients, removal of dead or damaged cells from the body, and defense against microorganisms. <span>Eukaryotic cells </span>internalize fluid, large and small molecules, and even other cells from their surroundings by a process called endocytos<span>There are two main types of endocytosis that are distinguished by the size of the vesicle formed and the cellular machinery involved. Pinocytosis (cell drinking) describes the </span>internalization<span> of extracellular fluid and small </span><span>macromolecules </span><span>by means of small vesicles. </span><span>Phagocytosis </span>(cell eating) describes the ingestion of large particles such as cell debris and whole microorganisms by means of large vesicles. While all eukaryotic cells are continually ingesting fluid and molecules by pinocytosis, only specialized phagocytic cells ingest large particles.<span>
</span>is. During endocytosis, the plasma membrane of the cell forms a pocket around the material to be internalized. The pocket closes and then separates from the inside surface of the plasma membrane to form a membrane-enclosed bubble, or vesicle, containing the ingested material.

How can islands be created by plate tectonics
Tema [17]
One example is the country of Iceland which is a large island right on the mid-Atlantic ridge which is where the Atlantic oceanic plate is rifted in two and where the underlying magma wells up to the surface as the two sides to the plate move opposite to each other. The resulting volcanic rock then builds itself up into an island.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

For number 3:

The bacterial cell is a prokaryotic cell and the fungal cell is a eukaryotic cell.

Explanation:

I cannot see the cells to answer number 4, but for number three, bacteria is a prokaryote and fungal cells are eukaryotes. You can most likely determine this by the presence of a nucleus (a prokaryote cell will not have one where a eukaryotic cell will).

Leaves curving towards sunlight are examples of _____.
aleksklad [387]


The correct answer is phototrophism.

Phototrophism is said to be the growth of a plant toward a source of light.

It is response to the stimulus of  light and is seen when a plant bends towards the direction that light is coming from. Response by plants to a stimulus is called tropism. The  word or prefix "photo" means or refers to light. Therefore phototropism simply means response to light.

Phototropism can be especially evident in the jungle where the jungle floor gets very little light. If a tall tree falls to the ground, it leaves a gap in the canopy through which sunlight streams to the ground. Many jungle plants growing on the ground will bend towards the  gap  and rapidly grow towards the source of  light.
