Answer:

They have no use for it, just like they dont have any type of respiratory organs like lungs.

Explanation:

In the case of nutrition and digestion they obtain food by capturing their prey with their pseudopodia. The food is internalized through a type of endocytosis known as phagocytosis. Nutrients are obtained as the enzymes digest the food inside the vacuole and when they are finished the food vacuole dissolves.

The way plant shoots grow toward the light
emmasim [6.3K]
From what I can understand from this, plants go toward the sun b/c it wants more sunlight. This is apparent when you just let a tiny piece of sunlight to the plant. The plant will grow toward the sunlight so that it can get more.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>reactants, </u> <u>products</u>

<u>catalyst</u>

<u>activation energy</u>

<u>enzymes</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Chemical reactions convert <u>reactants</u> to <u>products</u>. In nonliving systems, the presence of a(n) <u>catalyst </u>allows the reaction to proceed very quickly and have a lower <u>activation energy</u>. In living systems, this function is carried out by proteins called <u>enzymes</u>.

In an animal cell, what is the function of the lysosomes?
Alik [6]
<span><span><span>Release enzymes outside of the cell (exocytosis)</span>
which may serve the purpose of destroying materials around the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from inside the cell (autophagy)</span> 
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from inside the cell. 
This could include digesting worn-out organelles so that useful chemicals locked-up in their structures can be re-used by the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from outside the cell (heterophagy)</span>
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from outside the cell.
This could include breaking-down material taken-in by phagocytes, which include many types of white blood cells - also known as leucocytes. Specific mechanisms of heterophagy can be:<span><span>phagocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular debris, bacteria or other particles - only occurs in certain specialized cells</span><span>pinocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular fluid</span><span>endocytic - by which cells take-up particles such as molecules that have become attached to the outer-surface of the cell membrane.</span></span></span><span><span>Recycle the products of biochemical reactions that have taken place following materials being brought into the cell by endocytosis (general term for this 'recycling' function: biosynthesis) </span>
Different materials (chemicals) are processed in different ways, e.g. some structures may be processed/degraded within lysosomes and others are taken to the surface of the cell.</span><span>Completely break-down cells that have died (autolysis)</span></span>

In general, the functions of lysosomes involve breaking-down i.e. processing to 'make safe' or make use of, or removing from the cell e.g. by exocytosis, useless and potentially harmful materials such as old worn-out parts of the cell or potential threats such bacteria. Lysosomes can therefore be thought of as the rubbish disposal units within cel

What is the difference between the ligamentum arteriosum and the ductus arteriosus?
Goshia [24]
In fetal life, the lungs are not expanded, so most of the blood from the right ventricle is shunted from the pulmonary artery to the aorta through the patent ductus arteriosus. With a few breaths the lungs expand, and blood flows from right ventricle to pulmonary artery into the lungs. Withdrawal of circulating prostaglandin from the mother plus bradykinins released from the expanding lung of the infant cause the ductus to close over a few minutes to hours. The closed ductus remains as the ligamentum arteriosum.
