Which is the main reason cells are replaced in the body?

2 answers:

Because if the cells wouldnt be replaced then after a cell dies (which happens very rapidly) we wouldnt exist for very long. the body replaces tons of cells on a daily basis, and if the body stopped making new ones to replace the old, we wouldnt have anymore living cells left in our body.

<h2>Capillary Smooth Muscle Contraction</h2>

Explanation:

Blood flows through blood vessels, which form the closed system called the circulatory system. Like a system of roads, the circulatory system has its highways, back roads, and alleyways, which we call arteries, veins, and capillaries
Capillaries are the alleyways that extend and branch into every tissue of your body, ensuring that every cell has a blood supply. It is here, in the capillary beds, that your cells pick up oxygen and nutrients and drop off carbon dioxide and wastes
Muscles are composed of two major protein filaments: a thick filament composed of the protein myosin and a thin filament composed of the protein actin. Muscle contraction occurs when these filaments slide over one another in a series of repetitive events
All muscles contract as a result of interaction between special proteins within the myocytes. Skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle cells synthesize the contractile proteins actin and myosin, which are needed for muscular contraction

What term is used to describe bacterial cells that can naturally take up dna from their environment?

Maru [420]

<h2>The correct answer is: Competent cells</h2>

Explanation:

Bacterial cells have the capability of incorporating foreign naked DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid fragments from the environment or the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. This process is known as Transformation.
The bacterial cells which are able to undergo transformation are called Competent bacterial cells.
Some of the bacterial cells are naturally competent like<em> Bacillus subtilis, Streptocossus pneumoniae</em> while others like <em>Escherishia coli </em>need to be chemically treated to make them artificially competent.
In natural competence, the foreign DNA from the cell exterior is incorporated into the cell interior through specific protein complexes present in the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells.
In artificial competence, the negative charge on foreign DNA is masked by positively charged calcium ions (so that it is not repelled by the negative charge of the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell plasma membrane) and then small pores are created in the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells by giving a heat shock to the cells. This results in the uptake of the DNA by the bacterial cells.
