Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Jimmy was right to say organisms grow because their cells grow.</em>

<u>The growth of organisms can happen in terms of an increase in the number of cells they have (through mitotic cell division) or an increase in the volume of the cells with or without an increase in the number of cells. </u>

A good example is found in plants, most of which undergo an increase in size without any increase in the number of cells in their bodies. The uptake and storage of water in the vacuole produces a pressure that pushes on the cell walls, causing an increase in length, girths, and other growth features of the cells of plants.

Archaea differ from bacteria in that archaea
o-na [289]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Have diverse cell wall compositions

Explanation:

Both bacteria and archaea comes under prokaryotes because they both lack a membrane-bound nucleus. The difference between archaea and bacteria is in their cell wall composition.

The bacterial cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan and the archeal cell wall is made up of pseudo-peptidoglycan. In bacteria, peptidoglycan contains N acetyl muramic acid and N acetyl glucosamine unit but in archaea, the N acetyl muramic unit is replaced by some other unit and the linkage of two units is also different in archaea. So the right answer is A.
