Answer:

24μm³

Explanation:

According to this question, a cell, which is said to have the shape of a rectangular prism have the following dimensions:

Length = 4μm

Width = 2μm

Depth = 3μm

Since the cell has the shape of a rectangular prism, the formula for volume of rectangular prism, which is V = l × b × d

Volume of the cell = 4μm × 4

3μm × 2μm

= 24μm³

Why would cells die if they were unable to make (or otherwise obtain) the amino acid arginine?
kumpel [21]

Answer: Arginine is an amino acid that is incorporated into proteins. So if cells can not make or obtain arginine, the cell can not make proteins needed for survival.

Explanation:

Arginine is an amino acid used to build proteins, and it is classified as a semiessential or conditionally essential amino acid.

Proteins are large molecules consisting of long chains of amino acids. They perform many functions such as catalysing metabolic reactions, providing structure to cells and organisms, and transporting molecules, among many others.

Most notably, arginine is part of proteins that play an important role in many different processes such as cell division, immune function, wound healing and the release of hormones. <u>Without this amino acid, the cell cannot manufacture the proteins necessary for proper functioning</u>. So the cell dies because it cannot function properly.

A Venus flytrap closes around a small insect. Which life characteristic does this illustrate? A. reproduction B. response to sti
Mnenie [13.5K]
The answer is B: Response to stimuli
what response to stimuli means is that the organism reacts to something around it
the venus flytrap wouldn't just randomly close for no reason
it had to sense the fly, and react by closing.

it's not permeability because permeability means allowing things to pass through like soaking up water
unless your teacher is referring to absorbing the nutrients of the dead fly after it's been killed
but I don't think that's what this question is about

Answer:

c. Spindle fibers

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, the centrioles are small sets of microtubules composed of tubulin proteins. Moreover, in animal cells, a centrosome is an organelle localized near the nucleus which contains a pair of centrioles. These organelles (centrosomes) are referred to as microtubule-organizing centers. During Anaphase, centrioles move to opposite sides in the cell in order to organize the spindle fibers and separate the chromosomes during cell division.
