Biology

The cell would die. This is because mitochondria are essential for making energy that the cell can use, if the mitochondria stopped working this energy would not longer be available to the cell. If the cell does not have energy, it cannot perform vital functions like respiration.

Answer: The correct option is D (Antimicrobials).

Explanation:

Antimicrobial treatment is defined as therapies that are given to patients to either inhibit or kill the growth of microorganisms IN their body cells. The antimicrobial treatment can be grouped into two based on their mechanism of action. These includes:

--> Microbiocidal therapy: This type of treatment when given, kills the microorganisms in the cells of the patient.

--> Microbiostatic therapy: This type of treatment aims at inhibiting the growth of microorganisms when administered to a patient.

The antimicrobial drugs achieve their role usually through their different modes of action which includes:

--> cell wall inhibition

--> inhibition of cell membrane function

--> protein and nucleic acid synthesis inhibition.

Disinfects, antiseptic and sterilisation are all different ways of eliminating microorganisms but not used as invitro (within) treatment for patients. Therefore the term that best matches the description given is antimicrobials.

Which kind of organism does not generally require oxygen or sunlight to live?
gregori [183]
Answer is A.

Archaea requires neither sunlight for photosynthesis as do plants, nor oxygen. Archaea absorbs CO2, N2, or H2S and gives off methane gas as a waste product the same way humans breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. An example is chemosynthetic bacteria by sea drifts. They use chemical energy to produce vital processes to live.

Stems have four main functions which are:[1]

Support for and the elevation of leaves, flowers and fruits. The stems keep the leaves in the light and provide a place for the plant to keep its flowers and fruits.

Transport of fluids between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem(see below)

Storage of nutrients

Production of new living tissue. The normal lifespan of plant cells is one to three years. Stems have cells called meristems that annually generate new living tissue.
