You observe a tissue under a microscope. There appears to be a lumen on one side of the tissue. Lining this lumen, the cells see

m to have long, fingerlike projections. Beneath the projections, the cells seem to have the shape of shoeboxes and are packed tightly together. What type of tissue are you looking at?
a) stratified squamous epithelia
b) simple cuboidal epithelia
c) transitional epithelia
d) simple columnar epithelia

Answer:

d. Simple Columnar Epithelia

Explanation:

The simple columnar epithelium is an epithelial tissue that has a single layer of nonciliated cells. The cells look like columns and have oval nuclei near their base. This type of epithelial tissue has microvilli at the apical surface of their columnar epithelial cells. These microvilli are the fingerlike cytoplasmic projections that serve to increase the surface area for absorption.  

Simple columnar epithelium makes the linings of the gastrointestinal tract, specifically from the stomach to anus where they live the cavities of these organs.

Alona [7]

Answer:

<u>Chloroplast</u>

The chloroplast is where photosynthesis occurs in plant cells. During photosynthesis, sunlight energy, carbon dioxide, and water are converted into simple sugars (glucose). These simple sugars are cell's version of food.

<u>Mitochondria</u>

The mitochondria is where cellular respiration occurs. During the process of cellular respiration, glucose, which is produced through photosynthesis in the chloroplasts, is broken down into cellular energy that can be used by the cell.

- Both chloroplasts and mitochondria are organelles that generate metabolic energy.

I’m not sure what it means for the cell membrane to be semi-permeable
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

It means that the cell membrane allows certain substances to pass through and not others. As the cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with a hydrophobic core, only small uncharged hydrophobic molecules can pass through the cell membrane e.g. glucocorticoid and other larger charged particles require transporters or channel proteins to pass through the cell membrane, e.g. glucose.

Nuetrik [128]
D)all of the above 

<span>Homeostasis is the property of a system, either open or closed, that regulates its internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, constant condition within an organism. (Eg controlling amount of sugar in the bloodstream, keeping waste levels at acceptable levels.) </span>

<span>Opening and closing stomata controls the gas levels within the plant. </span>
<span>Converting excess sugar molecules to a lesser number of starch molecules regulates sugar levels. </span>
<span>Excreting waste through the cell membrane prevents waste build-up.</span>

Answer:

1.All living things are composed of cells.

2.Cells are the basic units of structure and function for living things.

3.All cells come from pre-existing cells. Also, organisms grow by “adding on more cells” NOT by increasing the size of their cells.
