How does homeostasis work in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Roman55 [17]3 years ago

The process of passing genetic material from one generation to the next depends completely on how cells grow and divide. To reproduce, a simple organism such as bacteria or yeast simply copies its DNA (through a process called replication) and splits in two. But organisms that reproduce sexually go through a complicated dance that includes mixing and matching strands of DNA (a process called recombination) and then reducing the amount of DNA in special sex cells to arrive at completely new genetic combinations for their offspring.

There are two basic kinds of organisms — ones with a nucleus and those without a nucleus (a compartment filled with DNA surrounded by a membrane called a nuclear envelope):

<span>Prokaryotes: Organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and therefore have DNA floating loosely in the liquid center of the cell. Prokaryotes divide, and thus reproduce, by simple mitosis.</span><span>Eukaryotes: Organisms that have a well-defined nucleus to house and protect the DNA. Eukaryotes divide by meiosis for sexual reproduction.</span>

Why rapid binge drinking is more dangerous than slower consumption of alcohol?
Tpy6a [65]
The same way we never inject a full bag of anything quickly and intravenously. Your body would not be able to compensate for the amount of the substance. Alcohol or more importantly the Ethanol or Ethyl Alcohol in alcoholic beverages is the active ingredient of such beverages. It is also a drug called a CNS (Central Nervous System) depressant which means it is in the same class category of Opioids (Such as Heroin and Morphine) and Barbiturates (Rophynol). Your body processes alcohol via the liver, as it is also considered a toxin. By consuming a massive amount of alcohol without spacing it out, you will overload your system, not only literally overwhelming your liver and causing Alcohol Poisoning, but you also can go into a state similar to a Heroin overdose.

Della recently quit her 20-year smoking habit. how long will it take for her risk of cardiovascular disease to become the same a
givi [52]

It will take 15 years for Della to be in the same risk of non-smoking persons in risk of cardiovascular disease. As you quit smoking, the lungs will start to purify itself, but it will take some time. On the other hand, it cannot be assured that the lungs may be totally restored, more or less it would just be clean over a period of time.
