Answer:
Structure X is only found in plant cells, and structure Y is found in plant and animal cells.
Explanation:
The structure found on the outside of the onion cell is the cell wall, which is specific to plants. The structure found on the outside of the skin cell is the cell membrane, which is found on all cells.
Structure X is not living, and structure Y is living. - this is false, both animal and plant cells are living.
Structure X can be found in some human cells, and structure Y can be found in some plant cells. - this is false, the opposite is true.
Structure X is only found in plant cells, and structure Y is found in plant and animal cells. - this is true structure X is the plant cell wall, and structure Y is the cell membrane
Structure X is semipermeable, and structure Y is selectively permeable. Semi-permeable and selectively permeable are essentially the same thing - it means the barrier allows some substances to pass through but not others.
Answer:
(a) 1/2; (b) no
Explanation:
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is an X-linked recessive disorder and the woman's father was diseased so it means that woman is a carrier of the allele but has normal phenotype. It means that she will have XXᵇ genotype.
In contrast to this, her husband is diseased so his genotype will be XᵇY.
The Punnett square diagram related to the cross is attached.
(a) Proportion of their sons expected to be G6PD is 1/2:
They both may give birth to 4 progeny with genotypes XXᵇ, XᵇXᵇ, XY and XᵇY. It means they both may have 2 sons out of which one with genotype XᵇY will be diseased while the one with genotype XY will be healthy. So the proportion of their sons having G6PD is 1/2 or 50%.
(b) If the husband were G6PD deficient, the answer will not change.
The reason behind this is that this disease is caused by an allele located in X chromosome. But father contributes only Y chromosome to his son not X chromosome. The X chromosome will affect the genotype of his daughter not son that is why answer will not change. It means they will still have 1/2 of their sons diseased.
The altered protein affected the function of the cell membrane. The cell membrane which contain a bilayer control the movement of substance in and out of the cell and organelles. Due to this it is selective permeable to ion and organic molecules.
What is cell specialization?
Answer: cell specialization is an adaptation to do a particular job in a cell
Answer:
The answer is both the first (Cause disease) and second (Cause algal blooms)
Explanation:
Protists may cause disease and even kill living things. Also, algal blooms are essentially protists but have chloroplasts- which plays a part in them being harmful.
