Answer: Feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles distinguish fungi from plants.
Explanation:
While plants and fungi are both eukaryotes, they differ in terms of feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles.
- Cell walls: both are non-chain polysaccharides (sugars) that function as structural support; yet fungal cell walls are composed of chitin while plant cell walls are made up of cellulose
- Feeding: fungi secrete compounds that digest their food sources before they can take in nutrients and they store food as <em>glycogen; </em>while plants do not require a means of pre-digesting food and store their food as <em>starch.</em>
- Organelles: plant cells contain <em>chloroplasts</em>, small green structures with chlorophyll that causes their characteristic coloration. Unlike plants, fungi do not photosynthesize to make their own food or contain chloroplasts.
- Trophic level: are strictly <em>heterotrophs or decomposers, </em>depending on other organisms for survival. Their chloroplasts enable them to carry out photosynthesis, thus they are <em>autotrophs or producers. </em>
Between the atmosphere and hydrosphere
Answer:
Explanation:
The formation of a gas is a clue to chemical changes. The bubbles of gas that you observed form when an antacid is dropped into water is an example of change. ... After ice melts into liquid water, you can refreeze it into solid ice if the temperature drops. Freezing and melting are physical changes.
Answer:
prokaryotes (for ex. bacteria)
Explanation:
DNA polymerase is the enzyme that is responsible for adding correct nucleotide pairs to new and growing DNA strands. Mismatched base pair errors will occur if this enzymes is not able to function optimally. There are other system that work DNA polymerase, these are proof reading system and mismatch repair system. Less than optimum function of these system will lead to uncorrected mismatched base pairs.
