Answer:

Explanation:

P.falciparum is malaria parasite that replicate itself in human body. Atovaquone is a medication used in the cure of Malaria together with proguanil. Atovaquone is a hydroxynaphthoquinone, it inhibits the mitochondrial electron transport chain at the cytochrome bc1

The action of Atovaquone and it metabolites

cycloguanil complement the action of malaria parasite. Atovaquone does not have direct effects on the parasite it only enhance its ability to collapse the membrane potential of malaria parasites by sensitizing mitochondria to atovaquon.

The function of the mitochondrial pathway is to produce a proton gradient that is required for maintaining the membrane potential processes such as protein synthesis, and citric acid cycle

Answer: The Cell structure.

Explanation: Most Archaeas don't have membrane-bound organelles, they are mostly unicellular prokaryotic organisms.

Archaea are found living alongside bacteria in many environments. Recently Archaea belongs to Crenarchaeota have been implicated in nitrogen cycling in the soil.

Fungi are eukaryotic multicellular organisms and they have membrane-bound organelles. they are hence more closely related to plants and animals than to bacteria or archaea. Like eukaryotes, Fungi has nuclei with chromosomes that contain DNA. They possess membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria. Fungi are heterotrophs, and they are saprophytic, they feed on decaying matter. some fungi occur as unicellular organisms, they are generally referred to as yeasts.

Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into daughter cells.

<h3>Why is cell division important?</h3>

Cell division is important as it helps in the production of identical copies of cell. It also helps in repairing the damaged tissues or cells that are worn out.

The difference between mitosis and meiosis is that mitosis results in two identical daughter cells while meiosis results in four se-x cells.

Mitosis creates diploid daughter cells while meiosis creates haploid daughter cells.

Lastly, the four main phases of cell division include prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
