Do sperm cells contain more mitochondria than any other cell?​

Biology
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>Sperm</em><em> do not contain more </em><em>mitochondria</em><em> than other cells</em>.

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for energy production within the cell. These organelles perform their function thanks to the oxidative phosphorylation process that occurs inside and produces ATP.

Cells such as skeletal muscle fiber have many mitochondria, due to the energy demand it has.

In comparison, the sperm has a limited amount of mitochondria that help mobilize its flagella, and that they lose when they enter the ovule, a cell that has even more mitochondria than the sperm.

Explain the importance of earthworm<br>​
fredd [130]
<h3>Earthworms are extremely beneficial in agriculture. They aid in the following ways:</h3>

  • They help loosen up and aerate the soil as they burrow deep. This aids in the respiration of the roots of the plants, making them penetrate deeper and grow well

  • They are being used presently in vermiculture to produce high-quality manure

  • They are also used as baits to catch fish

  • They keep interchanging the topsoil with the layer just below, thereby increasing soil fertility.

  • The excreta of earthworms is rich in the nitrogenous matter and is required for plant growth

The disease cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a mutation to the CFTR gene which affects the respiratory, endocrine, reproductive
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: DF508 mutation. A Genetic, Hereditary, Autosomal and Recessive Mutation.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive autosomal lethal disease, it is most common on Caucasoid populations. Its diagnosis is suggested by the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, persistent pulmonary colonization (particularly with mucoid Pseudomonas strains), meconium ileus, pancreatic insufficiency with or familiarity history of the disease. The FC gene is large, with about 250 Kb of genomic DNA, 27 exons representing about 5% of genomic DNA; encodes a 6.5 kb transcribed mRNA. This mRNA is transcribed into a protein of 1480 amino acid called CFTR (Regulator Transmembrane Conductance Cystic Fibrosis). When a three-base pair deletion, adenosine-thymine-thymine (ATT) identified in the CFTR gene, exon 10, it results in the loss of a single amino acid phenylalanine at position 508 of the protein. This mutation is called DF508; “D” stands for deletion and “F” for phenylalanine amino acid.
