Answer:

The correct options would be  

  • Become stem cells
  • Undergo differentiation  
  • Turn on all of the genes found in the nucleus

The cell is said to differentiate when they grow and mature to perform a specialized function.  

It can not re-differentiate into any other cell type. For example, muscle cell cannot differentiate into the blood cell.

In addition, the differentiated cell cannot convert back to the stem cell as stem cell is an undifferentiated cell which is capable of dividing and differentiate into another cell type.

Lastly, in a differentiated cell, only a specific set of genes are expressed. For example, in a sarcomere different set of genes would be expressed as compared to the genes expressed in a neuron.

How does groundwater recharge rivers?
Vlad1618 [11]
Ground water recharge includes recharge as a natural part of the hydrologic cycle and human-induced recharge, either directly through spreading basins or injection wells, or as a consequence of human activities such as irrigation and waste disposal. Artificial recharge with excess surface water or reclaimed wastewater is increasing in many areas, thus becoming a more important component of the hydrologic cycle

Which of the following is a true statement about lava that contains large amounts of dissolved gases? Lava that produces violent
anygoal [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The dissolved gases produce violent eruption as they escape. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magma contains dissolved gases and these dissolved gases induce vapor <em>pressure on the magma.</em> The magma is able to remain in the dissolved state itself without erupting because this vapor pressure is less than the confining pressure of the <em>rock surrounding the magma. </em>

One the vapor pressure exceeds this confining pressure the dissolved gases begin to  expand and<em> forms small gas bubbles</em>.

The <em>density of these gas bubbles</em> called vesicles is less than the density of magma and thus naturally tries to push out. When the gas bubbles escape the magma is also pushed out. Thus greater <em>amount of dissolved gases result in violent eruptions. </em>

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Teratogens may be defined as the chemicals that can cause birth defects in the fetus. Substances like alcohol, lead and nicotine acts as the main agents of tertaogens.

Shamona is drinking water that contains high level of lead. The element lead is harmful for the fetus. Even the small concentration of lead is enough to cause birth defects. The lead exposure can cause the abnormal development of brain and damages the brain of fetus. The fetus has low birth weight also.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
