Describe the structural organization shared by the cilia and flagella?

Biology
1 answer:
arsen [322]3 years ago
8 0

Both flagella and cilia have a common structural arrangement of microtubules referred to as "9 + 2 array."   A single cilium or flagellum is made up of string of nine microtubule doublets that surround a single microtubule doublet in the center.

Flagella are hair-like structures which are usually long and they extend from the plasma membrane. They are used to propel or move an entire cell, for example sperm cell.

Cilia are short  hair-like structures that are used to move entire cells. An example is paramecia. Cilia can also be found lining the outer surface of cells such as those of the respiratory tract where they move trapped particles up toward the nose and mouth.

What is the function of the mini-valves in lymph capillaries?
Naya [18.7K]

 They increase the permeability of the lymph capillaries. Interstitial fluid enters the lymphatic vessels through the mini valves (which are overlaps of endothelial cells from multiple lymph capillaries). The valves also prevent the backflow of the lymph from the vessels back to the tissues.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

16. mitochondria

17. lysosomes

18. smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

19. golgi body

20. golgi complex

Explanation:

16. Mitochondria are double membrane-bound cell organelles responsible for the supply and storage of energy for the cell

17.  While cells mainly use lysosomes to dispose of trash. Sometimes they simply hang onto their trash, performing the cellular equivalent of sweeping it under the rug

18. Are the storage organelle, associated with the production of lipids, steroids, and also responsible for detoxifying the cell.

19.  The Golgi body is the sorting organelle of the cell. Proteins are transported from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) to the Golgi.

20. is responsible for sorting and correctly shipping the proteins produce the ER. Just like our postal packages, which should have a correct shipping address, the proteins produced in the ER should be correctly sent to their respective address. It is a very important step in protein synthesis.

What is the greenhouse effect? How does it occur and why is it important? ps i didnt know what subject it was
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The absorbed energy warms the atmosphere and the surface of the Earth. This process maintains the Earth's temperature at around 33 degrees Celsius warmer than it would otherwise be, allowing life on Earth to exist. Greenhouse gases keep our planet livable by holding onto some of Earth's heat energy so that it doesn't all escape into space. This heat trapping is known as the greenhouse effect. Just as too little greenhouse gas makes Earth too cold, too much greenhouse gas makes Earth too warm.

A person is told to take 1.25 mg of vitamin d daily. how many 0.125-mg tablets should this person take?
vovikov84 [41]
This is a simple calculation involving drug doses.

The solution is as follows:

(0.125 mg/tablet)(n) = 1.25 mg
n = (1.25 mg)/(0.125 mg/tablet)
n = 10 tablets

So a person needs to take ten 0.125 mg tablets of vitamin D to have that 1.25 mg dose.
