ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Insect flight muscles [Mitochondria]

Cells lining the respiratory passages [Cilia]

White blood cells that engulf and destroy invading bacteria [Lysosomes]

Leaf cells of cacti [Chloroplasts]

Goblet cells lining the intestinal tract that secrete mucus [Golgi apparatus]

Pancreatic cells that are responsible for creating several digestive enzymes (proteins) [Ribosomes]

Explanation:

Mitochondria are cell organelles whose main function is energy generation during respiration. They generate energy in the form of ATP which is then used by the cells and tissues for various metabolic function. Mitochondria are abundant in cells whose energy requirements are high such as muscle cells. Therefore, insects flight muscles will have an abundance of mitochondria.

Cilia are finger-like projections on respiratory surfaces whose sweep-like movements help to move particles and fluids out of the airways. In the trachea, the cilia trap particles like bacteria and viruses and then move these trapped particles along with mucus up to the pharynx where it is either coughed out or swallowed into gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, respiratory surfaces like the trachea will have an abundance of cilia.

Lysosome are cell organelles which function to destroy and digest foreign and cellular proteins in the cell. They have an abundance of proteolytic enzymes which degrade proteins at acidic pH. Therefore, white blood cells that engulf and destroy invading bacteria will have an abundance of ysosomes.

Chloroplasts are plant cells organelles which are the sites for photosynthesis. It is abundant in the leaves of plants where photosynthesis mainly take place. Therefore, leaf cells of cacti will have an abundance of chloroplasts.

Golgi apparatus is a cell organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially those that are to be secreted outside the cell, packaging them into vessicles. They also make and secrete mucus. Therefore, goblet cells lining the intestinal tract that secrete mucus will have an abundance of Golgi apparatus.

Ribosomes are cell organelles whose main function is to synthesize proteins, both for intracellular and extracellular purposes. Proteins such as hormones, enzymes etc, are synthesized by the ribosomes. Therefore, pancreatic cells that are responsible for creating several digestive enzymes (proteins) will have an abundance of ribosomes.

NEED HELP ASAPPPP!!! PLEASEE

Answer:

1. The meaning of a diploid chromosome is a chromosome that has two complete pairs (sets) of chromosomes (from each parent).

2. Muscle cells, bone cells, blood cells, skin cells, and nerve cells are all diploid. (most cells are minus reproductive ones).

3. Haploid chromosomes are chromosomes that only has only a single set of chromosomes that don't have pairs.

4. Reproductive cells are haploid

7. A dog would have 39 pairs of chromosomes (hence the total 78 chromosomes).

8. A dog's reproductive cell would have half of the diploid cell because it is haploid so it would have 39 chromosomes.

10.The only haploid cell out of the 5 options is the ovum/sperm cell because they are the only reproductive cells (and reproductive cells are always haploid unless they combine to make a pair and form a zygote)

Hope this helps! :D

Also sorry I didn't know 5 or 6
