The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger and as volume increases, surface area to volume ratio decreases. The larger a cell, the less easily it can get rid of waste and it also has more trouble getting water, nutrients and gases in. That is why we do not see giant cells. Instead we see multiple cells in larger organisms.
One way to increase surface area is to flatten the cell. That is why red blood cells are flat discs, instead of spheres. Another way is elongation. That is why many bacteria are rod shaped, and why neurons are elongated. In fact, the human body relies on the same principle to adapt to climate. Long tall and lean folks with long arms and legs live in East Africa, because such shapes increase surface area to get rid of excess body heat to avoid heat strokes. Europeans and Asians adapted to cold climates, in contrast, have shorter arms and legs and rounder torsos to minimize surface area. to conserve body heat.
Answer:
2, 3, 4, 5
Explanation:
I think this is right sorry if I get it wrong
Well its most likely over hunted but if its endangered and not allowed to be hunted then it would be because of natural predators in the area being over populated and taking out the caribou to fast
Answer:
The correct answer is option D.
Explanation:
In the presence of SDS single band appeared, while in the absence of SDS two bands appeared. SDS or sodium dodecyl sulfate refers to an anionic detergent, which combines with amino acid side chains providing the protein a net negative charge. It dissociates the non-covalent bonds.
In SDS-PAGE, the separation of proteins takes place on the basis of their molecular weight. Options A and B are incorrect as only in the presence of SDS, the separation of protein subunits takes place. Option C is also incorrect as a protein containing distinct molecular weight cannot show single band.
Option D is correct as the presence of SDS supplements a bunch of negative charges to the protein, thus, charge is not the factor. Therefore, the proteins are distinguished on the basis of the molecular weight. Thus, identical molecular weight demonstrates a single band. In the non-presence of SDS, charge performs a function along with the molecular weight, therefore, two bands appear.
