Both the arctic fox and snowshoe rabbit have made species adaptations over time that enable them to survive.  For example, both

creatures have fur that turns white in winter and fur on the pads of their feet.  These are examples of adaptations to
Question 1 options:

geographical isolation.

interspecies competition.

climate.

specific food sources.



Question 3 (1 point)
 
Most animal cell membranes have proteins that pump _____ ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell.

Question 3 options:

sodium

magnesium

calcium

carbon

The surface area-to-volume ratio of cells determines how quickly they can absorb materials.  Suppose that a space mission to Planet Zognard-42 uncovers giant cube-shaped single celled organisms living in an oxygen atmosphere.  One species of cube-shaped organism is 2 cm on each side.  Another is 1 cm on each side.  About how much faster will the smaller cube organism be able to absorb oxygen?

Question 4 options:

They all absorb at the same rate.

2 times

3 times

6 times

Cells are limited in size because

Question 5 options:

they divided before they have a chance to grow.

they do not have enough vacuoles to store materials.

the cell membrane can't supply enough materials for a too large cell.

they are always in groups.

Ans.1.

Climatic adaptations are defined as adaptions developed in organisms due to variation in climatic conditions, such as change in temperature. White fur of  arctic fox and snowshoe rabbit helps them to hide in snow and protects from winter, while, furs in padded feet help them to walk in snow. Hence, these adaptions are examples of adaptations to climate.

Thus, the correct answer is option). climate.

Ans.3.

The sodium-potassium ATPase or sodium-potassium pump is an example of membrane protein that helps in transport of sodium and potassium ions. It pumps three sodium ions outside the cell from cytoplasm and carries three potassium ions inside the cell from extracellular matrix.

It is responsible for creating gradient in the cells between sodium and potassium ions.

Thus, the correct answer is option). sodium.

Ans.4.

The absorption rate of a cell depends upon the surface area-to-volume ratio of that cell. Higher the surface area-to-volume ratio of a cell, higher the absorption would be done by that cell.

The cell surface area-to-volume ratio of cuboid organism with 2 cm each side = 6 x 2 x 2 / 2 x 2 x 2 = 3.

The cell surface area-to-volume ratio of cuboid organism with 1 cm each side = 6 x 1 x 1 / 1 x 1 x 1 = 6.

(As for cubes, surface area = 6 a², while volume = a³, where a = side)

The cell surface area-to-volume ratio of smaller cube organism (with 1 cm each side) is two times more than the larger cube organism (with 2 cm each side). Hence, the smaller cube organism will show two times faster absorption of oxygen.

Thus, the correct answer is option). 2 times.

Ans. 5.

The cell size is regulated to a certain limit in all organisms accordingly. This is because, as the cell gets larger in size, the surface area-to-volume ratio becomes smaller, which decreases efficiency of nutrient absorption as cells with smaller surface area-to-volume ratio show slower absorption of materials.

Hence, if a cell increases its size beyond limit, the plasma membrane would not be able to supply enough nutrients and other substances to the cell.  

Thus, the correct answer is option). the cell membrane can't supply enough materials for a too large cell.

Which organelle prepares proteins for specific jobs?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Ribosomes.
Proteins are used for cellular repairing and chemical processes. Ribosomes are one of the most important organelles in the cell, mostly part of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. It manufactures enzymes such as proteins which will be utilized by many organelles in the cell. Microtubules are one, responsible for the framework and acts as a skeleton of the cell –cytoskeleton needs proteins, also cytoplasm and other organelles of the cell. For a prokaryote or a eukaryote cell to survive, they need protein.<span> Fundamentally, the cell would cease to function and possibly die</span>
