How do vacuoles help fungal cells maintain homeostasis?

Biology
2 answers:
Crazy boy [7]3 years ago

Answer:

VACUOLES are organelles found in cells of plants or fungi.

They play a role in storage of both nutrients and waste products .

They help maintain homeostasis in the following way:

1. MAINTAINING ACIDITY :

In case the pH in the environment drops a lot (becomes very acidic), there is a flux of H ions from the cell's cytoplasm into the cell's vacuole thereby increasing acidity to required level and thus maintaining the specific pH in the cells internal environment as well.

2. TURGIDITY

Vacuoles regulate the turgidity by regulating the amount of water inside the cell.

If cell has excessive water: vacuole absorbs the water and then diffuses it out of the cell.

If cell lacks water: water from the vacuole gets passed back into the cell thereby maintaining turgidity.

Two scientists produce two different cladograms for the same group of organisms. Explain how the differences are possible.
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Due to different grouping style

Explanation:

There are two modes of classifying an organism due to which two different cladogram are produced-  

A) When the organisms are grouped together on the basis of similarities shared by them – Such species are named based on the name of older species and the newly discovered species sharing similar traits are kept under older species thereby dropping its own name.  

B) In the second method, the minute differences are observed in species to group them into several branches arising from one parent organism.

in 6-8 sentences, explain how stream volume and speed affect the size, shape and flow of streams and rivers.
sukhopar [10]

Explanation:

The higher the volume of water in a stream, the higher its speed and the wide its size and shape which ensures a proportionate flow rate.

To quantify how the speed of stream, we use the quantity, discharge in hydrology;

 Discharge is the volumetric rate of water flow past a point at a particular time.

  Discharge = \frac{volume of water}{time}

  • We see that discharge is directly proportional to the volume of water in a stream.
  • It is inversely proportional to the time taken.
  • We know that volume is the amount of space occupied by a body. It is function of its size and shape.
  • A big water body that is deeper, wider and longer will have more wate and a greater discharge.
