Answer:
(a) Microfilaments
(b) Microtubules
(c) Microtubules
(d) Microfilaments
(e) Intermediate filaments
(f) Microfilaments, intermediate filaments, microtubules
(g) Microfilaments, microtubules
(h) Microfilaments, intermediate filaments, microtubules
(i) Microtubules, microfilaments
(j) Microtubules
Explanation:
Microtubules (MTs) are dimers of the protein tubulin (alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits) and they are major components of the cytoskeleton. MTs play diverse cellular roles including, mechanical support (cytoskeleton), transport, motility, chromosome segregation, etc. Microfilaments (MFs) are protein filaments that also form part of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells. MFs consist of G-actin monomers assembled in linear actin polymers, and their functions include mechanical support, cytokinesis, changes in cell shape, amoeboid movement, endocytosis and exocytosis, etc. MFs associate with the protein myosin to generate muscle contractions. Actin filaments/MTs assembly from monomeric actin/tubulin is caused due to energy expenditure, where ATP/GTP bound to actin/tubulin is hydrolyzed during polymerization. Finally, intermediate filaments (IFs) are a type of cytoskeletal element composed of a heterogeneous group of structural elements, and they are not found in all eukaryotes. The primary function of the IFs is to contribute to the mechanical support for the plasma membrane where these filaments come into contact with other cells and/or with the extracellular matrix. The IFs are not directly involved in cell movement. All 3 types of cytoskeletal elements (microfilaments, intermediate filaments, microtubules) can be visualized by fluorescence microscopy when cells express chimeric MT/IF/MF.–GFP fusion proteins.
Answer:
b plants take carbon dioxide from the air
Answer:
The correct answer is - c. Larger claws would help the crab crack open the shells of the mussels so the crab can eat them.
Explanation:
The graph (attached) states that the two variables size of claws of the crabs depends on the thickness of the shell of mussels. With the increase in the thickness of the shell of the mussels the size of the claws of crabs also increases and becomes larger.
The most likely explanation of this change would be adapting according to the change in the shell of the crab as they require to crack their shell to eat them as mussels are the primary food source of these crabs.
Answer: Nervous system
Explanation:
The cerebellum of the brain is the structure of the nervous system known to control various muscles of the body that are involved in involuntary activities such as breathing.
Thus, the nervous system controls and regulates a person's breathing
The natural source of carbon dioxide that was left out is the calcareous shells of organisms. The major metabolic process that was left out is respiration.
<h3>What is carbon dioxide?</h3>
Carbon dioxide is one of the gases that cycle around in the universe. It is an integral part of the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle is a model that depicts the movement of carbon in the ecosystem.
