Nearly all plant cells and many bacteria are surrounded by a cell wall. However, the roles these walls play in cell division dif

fer dramatically. In plants, the wall is sufficiently rigid so that in most cells, constriction of a ring of proteins could not cause the wall to fold in and eventually pinch off. Rather, a new plant cell wall is produced between the daughter cells by the formation of a cell plate, which eventually joins with the existing cell wall. In contrast, in bacteria, the cell wall is sufficiently flexible to fold in during constriction of the FtsZ protein ring.
Bacteria lack the distinct microfilaments and microtubules that dominate the cytoskeletons of plant and animal cells. However, bacteria contain proteins that are similar to actin (the building block of microfilaments) and tubulin (the building block of microtubules). The tubulin-like proteins in bacteria function in the formation of two daughter cells through binary fission.
(A) In prokaryotes, constriction of a ring of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/ tubulin-like proteins) cause infolding of the plasma membrane and cell wall during cell division (binary fission).
(B) In plant cells, a network of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/tubulin-like proteins) functions in the formation of the cell plate.
(C) In animal cells, a ring of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/tubulin-like proteins) constricts, creating a cleavage furrow.

Answer: A. protein like tubules

B. Microtubules

C. Microfilaments

Explanation:

Cytokinesis in the bacteria is facilitated by the presence of these conserved tubulin-like proteins. Due to the fact that their walls are flexible, constriction of these walls is possible aiding in cytokinesis. Unlike in plant that have rigid cell wall, a cell plate is involved in the formation of a new cell wall between the daughter cells. Network of microtubules determines the position of the cell plate which is mostly like a disc in the middle of the two daughter cells. Cleavage furrow occurs in animal cells which is caused by the action of the contractile ring: a ring of actin microfilament.

Which organelles do scientists believe originated by symbiotic relationships between primitive eukaryotes and certain prokaryote
AnnyKZ [126]
The organelles  that scientists  believed  that  it originated  by  symbiotic  relationships  between   primitive  eukaryotes  and  certain  prokaryotes   is  known as chloroplast. Chloroplast  contain   chlorophyll  which  capture  energy  from sunlight  that  is  used   in  photosynthesis .This  energy  is  converted  to  ATP  and NADPH

In an ecosystem, can there be more carnivores than herbivores ?
vodka [1.7K]
There can but it will not last long. There are probably more carnivores because they were taking advantage of the supply of herbivores and now they will start to die off. So I guess my answer is no, not normally and not for a long time.

Describe the difference between codominance and incomplete dominance. Give 1 example of each.
Colt1911 [192]
Incomplete dominance is when one allele is not completely dominant over the other (blend in), and codominance is when both alleles affect the phenotype(appearance)

Example of incomplete dominance: a red flower mates with a with flower and makes an pink offspring

Example of codominance: a brown cow mates with a with cow and the offspring being with and brown polkadots
