Answer:

Mitosis is responsible for the growth and repair of the organism. The mitosis in the unicellular organism such as bacteria, mitosis is a type of asexual reproduction which makes identical copy of the organism.

In case of the multi cellular organism, mitosis is used to repair the damaged cells of the body. It helps in the recovery of the body by the process of cell cycle regulation. The cell undergoes various phases and new cells are formed  by the preexisting cells and damaged cells are repaired.

Hence, mitosis in the body of the organism helps in keeping the body healthy.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

In the given case, anaerobic metabolism is used. In the non-existence of oxygen, energy gets produced in the body by the combustion of carbohydrates and the process is termed as anaerobic metabolism. This generally takes place, when the lungs are not able to provide adequate oxygen into the blood in order to sustain the requirement of energy for the muscles.  

It is basically used only for performing brief bursts of activities like cycling, running or lifting heavyweights. In case, when blood is lacking enough oxygen, glycogen and glucose cannot get further dissociated into water and carbon dioxide. Thus, in that place production of lactic acid takes place, which accumulates in the muscles and reduces its activity.

What is the relationship between the movement of the atmosphere and the movement of surface currents?
4vir4ik [10]

The surface currents and the lower atmosphere movements are connected to one another. Namely, the surface currents influence the temperature and the humidity of the air masses above them. Also, the movement of the surface currents to a certain direction is causing the movement of the air masses above them. So we have a situation where the surface currents with their properties influence the type of the air masses above them, as well as the direction of the movement of those air masses. Because of this it is very easy to predict the type and direction of movement of an air mass if we know the type and direction of movement of a surface current.
