Which organelle is found in both plants and animals:

Biology
1 answer:
MrMuchimi3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is E. The organelle that is found in both plants and animals is the Mitochondria.

Explanation:

Mitochondria are cellular organelles responsible for supplying most of the energy necessary for cellular activity (cellular respiration). They act as energy plants of the cell and synthesize ATP at the expense of metabolic fuels (glucose, fatty acids and amino acids). The mitochondria has an outer membrane permeable to ions, metabolites and many polypeptides. This is because it contains proteins that form pores called porins or VDAC (voltage-dependent anionic channel), which allow the passage of molecules up to 10 kDa of mass and an approximate diameter of 2 nm.

Alex787 [66]

Answer: The answer is 2200 calories per day for Zondra and 3000 per day for Austin

Explanation:

The options are;

a. 1800 calories per day for Zondra and 2200 per day for Austin

 b. 2200 calories per day for Zondra and 3000 per day for Austin

 c. 2400 calories per day for each of them

 d. 2000 calories per day for each of them

The answer is option B -2200 calories per day for Zondra and 3000 per day for Austin

Calories provide energy which we use to perform daily activities. The calories derived from food allow us take part in important activities and leisure. Calorie needs are often higher during teenage years because it is the time of rapid growth.

Austin, is her 16 year old son. The recommended calorie needs for adolescent males between the ages of 16- 18 are; 2,400 calories for non active adolescents, 2,800 calories for moderately active adolescents and 3200 calories for active adolescents.

Zondra is a 14 year old female adolescents. The recommended needs for adolescent females between the ages of 14-18 are; 1,800 calories for non active adolescent females, 2,000 calories for moderately active and 2,400 calories for active adolescent females.

Option B, 2200 calories per day for Zondra and 3000 per day for Austin  fall within the range

HIV can remain latent for several years and not cause any symptoms in its host. What viral reproduction cycle is occurring durin
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The lytic cycle.

Explanation:

<u>HIV is a retrovirus</u> that has a special enzyme called transcriptase reverse, which can synthesize DNA using RNA as a template. This replication system is particularly useful for the virus because the DNA synthesized from the RNA viral genome can be then integrated into the human chromosomes and stay inactive for years. This is called a lysogenic cycle and is characterized by a latency of the virus and an integration to the host DNA.

When there is a triggering event, <u>this latent virus can be excised from the human chromosome and start producing copies of itself using the host machinery.</u> <u>Then the virions are assembled and after that they lyse the host cell and release new infective units that can then infect neighboring cells. </u>This is called the lytic cycle of the virus and is the reproduction cycle that occurs when a person moves into the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) stage of HIV infection.

How did fossil<br> fuels form, and how<br> are they obtained<br> and used?
Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are important energy sources for our every day activities.

  Formation of fossil fuels

Fossil fuels forms from the accumulation and burial of organisms in a basin of deposition. Instead of the organisms decaying, they preserve their carbon content. To be worthy of becoming fossil fuels, organisms must be buried in an environment where there is little to no oxygen to fast-track decomposition of the buried organic matter. Increase in temperature and pressure causes the organic matter to transform into fossil fuels.

How are they obtained

First, different fossil fuels have their extraction techniques because they occur in different physical state of matter.

For the solids e.g coal: exploration is carried out first and if a prospect is delineated, mining engineers design the best way to extract the coal from nature. Coal is usually found laid in sedimentary beds in nature. Top layers of sediments can be removed to extract the coal.

For fluids such as crude oil and natural gas, after a prospect is identified, a rig is usually constructed to extract the fluid and gas. The natural pressure allows for the fluids the rise within the drill used in extraction.

How are they used

Coal and gas are used to power electrical generating plants. They are used to heat steams which drives turbines and produce electricity.

Natural gas is used as a domestic fuel for cooking and so also coal.

When crude is processed a lot of product is obtained. Gasoline is used to power most internal combustion engines. Some chemicals useful for manufacturing plastics, drugs e.t.c are also derived from the processed crude.
