What happens when the centrioles stopped working?

1 answer:

4 0

It is well known that the centrosome acts as a microtubule organizing center, with its textbook role in forming mitotic spindles in dividing cells. So in many cells, the centrosome with its centrioles is indeed essential to ensure correct cell division, and in these the PCM ensures the distribution of the right number of centrioles to each daughter cell. But there are exceptions – which include somatic cells in fruit flies and some fungi – where no centrioles are needed; and centrosomes in some differentiated cells, including neurons and muscle cells, are inactive.

What do the mitochandaria in our cells do with the glucose and oxygen molecules they obtain

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

Explanation:

A quick overview Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are rod-shaped organelles that are considered the power generators of the cell. During cellular respiration, mitochondria convert glucose and oxygen to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the biochemical energy “currency” of the cell to do any cellular activities.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Water is denser as a liquid than as a solid.

Explanation:

The property of water that makes icebergs float on is due to the fact that water as a liquid is denser than as a solid.

According to the rules of floatation, a less dense substance will always float on a denser liquid because a body will always displace its own weight when placed in a liquid. At room temperature, water as a liquid has a density of 1 g/cm3 but if the same water forms ice, the density would be 0.92 g/cm3. Hence, when ice is placed on water, it will float on it.
