Biology

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

Answer:

a) They break down glucose during the production of ATP.

Explanation:

This question is making a comparison of the life processes of the following organisms: ash tree (plant), cat (animal), yeast (fungus), amoeba (protist). As observed, these four organisms belong to four different kingdoms, hence, will have distinct features/characteristics.

For example,

- Only plants like the ash tree develop a cell plate when it is about to divide into two during the process of mitosis.

- Only members of the fungi kingdom contains CHITIN in their cell wall

- Different species of organisms contains its own unique number of chromosome in its cell. Hence, different species cannot all have 19 pairs of chromosomes in their respective cells.

However, all cells of living organisms undergo the process of cellular respiration, which they use to obtain energy (ATP) by breaking down glucose (from their food).

Why would a mutation to a hox gene have a large impact on the organism
Anna35 [415]
In order to understand the ramifications of a mutation in the Hox genes you must understand what the Hox gene does. To put in simple terms the Hox genes control the body plan so you can think of them as a blueprint. For instance, they are responsible for determining the type of vertebrae in a given segment within the human spinal chord. As well as where body parts are found in insects such as fruit flies. Therefore, a mutation in the Hox gene can lead to body parts and limbs in the incorrect place or order in the body.
