Answer:

lysosome

Explanation:

Apoptosis is the regulated or controlled death of cells. It is sometimes referred to as "programmed cell death." This occurs when external and internal factors trigger genes to produce "self-destruct" enzymes. These enzymes are thought to come from the lysosomes inside the cell. Our immune system is also involved in absorbing these cell parts and recycling them to make new molecules or cells

When humans are in early fetal development, the fingers and toes are connected by a webbing of skin between them. Later in development, apoptosis takes place whereby enzymes are released from the lysosomes to destroy these skin cells. As a result, when we are born, our fingers and toes are separated. You may know of someone that has not had digital apoptosis happen normally. They may have a couple of toes or fingers webbed together. This is not all that uncommon.

How does matter cycle AND energy flow through living and nonliving things in an ecosystem?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Matter cycles through an ecosystem through processes called biogeochemical cycles.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis

Plants build carbohydrates by taking in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Carbon moves through the food chain

As organisms eat other organisms, carbon moves up the food chain. Molecules in the food that contain carbon transform into the organic molecules that make up the living body.

Carbon moves back to the environment

Organisms use food molecules, containing carbon, as a form of energy. The process of cellular respiration breaks down food molecules into carbon dioxide.

Contribution of industry

Humans contribute to moving carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere through the combustion of fossil fuels.

Use of fossil fuels

Today's fossil fuels were formed hundreds of millions of years ago by plants deposited in the Earth. The decomposition of the plants slowed down in such a way that their organic molecules are used for natural gas, coal and oil.

Diffusion into the air

From the oceans, carbon dioxide diffuses into the air. This creates a large amount of carbon, which is then taken in by plants to start the cycle over again.

Brainliest:Both the euglena and paramecium seen here have___?
forsale [732]

Answer:

projections that help them move

Explanation:

Euglena and paramecium both belong to the Kingdom Protista. They are very minute single cellular organisms but have many differences among them. Paramecium is more similar to animals in many of its characteristics while Euglena is more similar to plants in its characteristics. This is because Euglena just like plants can make their own foods through chloroplast while paramecium just like animals cannot make own food.

However what is common in both of these are projections that help them move . Paramecium have projections called cilia around the whole body while Euglena has a whip like flagella which helps it to move.

Hope it help!
