What might happen to the cell if it were suddenly unable to use lipids?

(A) It would not be able to make proteins or transfer substances to other cells

(B) Would not be able to transfer genetic information to other cells

(C) It would not be able to store energy or communicate with other cells

<em>(D)</em> It would not be able to store water or protect itself from viruses

Explanation:

<em>Water moves in and out of a cell in conformity with the concentration gradient formed between the membrane of the cell and the extracellular solution. The process whereby the water moves from a region of low solute concentration to a high solute concentration via a semi-permeable membrane is called OSMOSIS. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>In this case, the solute concentration of the blood cannot be regulated, hence, it rises. This causes the solute concentration of the blood to be high or is said to be hypertonic than the cell's. This creates an osmotic gradient causing water to flow out of the hypotonic (low solute concentration) cell into the hypertonic extracellular environment (blood). Once water flows out of the cell as a result of osmosis, the cell shrinks or shrivels i.e. reduce in size.</em>

Industrial revolution is when people started making a bunch of factories.

It affected the color of dark colored moths because they were able to camouflage into their environment better because of the soot from the factories, therefore increasing the number of dark moths that survived in their environment over light colored moths.

Natural selection is when the environment and environmental factors affect an organisms ability to survive and reproduce in that environment, causing only the most fit organisms to be able to survive and reproduce.

Environmental factors typically activate genes in a cell by causing the cell to --
Drupady [299]

Environmental factors typically activate genes in a cell by causing the cell to transcribe specific DNA segments to mRNA for translation.

This interaction is an example of environmental factors affecting <u><em>genetic expression</em></u>. In these situations, the environment causes specific segments of DNA to be expressed, meaning they are transcribed to mRNA and subsequently used to form proteins.

Meanwhile, other parts of the genome remain or are forced to be silent. This can be a result of mutations or simple biochemical reactions between the environment and the genome.

What are the steps and structures involved in the process of cellular respiration
kow [346]

Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP, a chemical which the cell uses for energy. Usually, this process uses oxygen, and is called aerobic respiration. It has four stages known as glycolysis, Link reaction, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. yup
