Collenchyma and sclerenchyma fibers both have a similar main function. What is it?

Biology
1 answer:
Allushta [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

To provide mechanical support to the plant parts

Explanation:

Collenchyma fibers consist of living cells with unevenly thickened primary cell walls and mainly serve to provide support to the plant parts of herbs. These fibers provide elastic support and are also present in the form of long strands near the surface of stems and along the leaf veins.  

Sclerenchyma fibers consist of dead cells at maturity and have an extremely thick cell wall. The main function of these fibers is to provide strength and support to the plant body. The presence of thick secondary cell walls in cells of sclerenchymatous fibers makes them strong and hard to provide mechanical support and strength to plant part. These fibers are particularly abundant in stems of woody trees and certain types of leaves.

How does the human heart level of organization relate to cells? To organ systems
ANEK [815]
It is hard to understand this question but ill give you my best answer. The hearts level of organisation to cells is immense, the heart pumps blood to every cell in the body (so they can respire) through a system of Arteries, veins and capillaries. The blood is pushed by the force of the heart through the arteries, the main (and largest) tubes for transportation to segments of the body further away from the heart. This goes into a smaller system of veins that brake off into a tree kind of pattern to reach every cell. These later brake off into the capillaries that have walls only 1 cell thick. This is how blood is transported to each cell that requires energy and oxygen to respire.

_____ cannot be grown in a lab culture unless living cells are present.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

B. Viruses

Explanation:

Viruses are not made out of cells, they can't keep themselves in a stable state, they don't grow, and they can't make their own energy. Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms.

Breathing acts in the maintenance of homeostasis as it regulates the entry of air, controls the output of carbon dioxide from the blood and contributes to the supply of oxygen to the cells of the body.
