Answer:

The structural difference that accounts for the unique way animal cells react when exposed to water is the absence of cell wall in animal cells.

Explanation:

Plant, certain fungi and bacterial cells have an outer covering of cell walls that protects their cell in different and adverse environmental conditions.

The cell wall of the plant is made up of cellulose, the cell wall of fungus is mainly composed of chitin and bacterial cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan.  

This cell wall prevent bursting of cell in hypotonic environment because they are rigid structures. Animal cell does not have a cell wall outside their cell membrane therefore in hypotonic condition animal cells burst due to the diffusion of excess water inside the cell.

Therefore absence of cell in an animal cell is the structural difference accounts for the unique way animal cells react when exposed to water.

Scorpion4ik [409]

C option is the right answer which states teat the first has one more amino acid than the second.

Explanation:

The first mRNA sequence codes for the Methionine (start codon), isoleucine, valine, and tyrosine.

The second mRNA sequence for the Methionine, isoleucine, valine only, because the last sequence (UAG) is of stop codon and stop codon do not code for any of the amino acids.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The correct answer is - he wanted to be sure before considering before the bird as a new type if it really represents new species.

Explanation:

Dr. Smith has found the bird that he considered as new species however Dr. Wilson said he will only be convinced if DR. smith could find several members of the same species. Dr. Wilson seems to be sure before considering the bird that Dr. smith found as the new species. It is because he wants to sure if it's not an unusual example of the pre-described species.  

Thus, the correct answer is - he wanted to be sure before considering before the bird as a new type if it really represents new species.
