6. What happens to the carbon in our bodies when we die?

Biology
1 answer:
Flura [38]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In life, muscle cells contract and relax due to the actions of two filamentous proteins (actin and myosin), which slide along each other. After death, the cells are depleted of their energy source and the protein filaments become locked in place. This causes the muscles to become rigid and locks the joints.

Compare and contrast glaciers and sea ice
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
The most basic difference is that sea ice forms from salty ocean water, whereas icebergs, glaciers, and lake ice form from fresh water or snow. Sea ice grows, forms, and melts strictly in the ocean. Glaciers are considered land ice, and icebergs are chunks of ice that break off of glaciers and fall into the ocean.

4. Describe the cell cycle and cell division and explain their importance to an organism.
Marianna [84]
<span>The main reasons why cell division is important in organisms are reproduction, repair and growth. Cell division is necessary in order for life to continue.
</span><span>
The length of the cell cycle is important because it determines how quickly an organism can multiply. For single-celled organisms, this rate determines how quickly the organism can reproduce new, independent organisms. </span><span>Most of the differences in cell cycle duration between species and cells are found in the duration of specific cell cycle phases. DNA replication, for example, generally proceeds faster the simpler the organisms. One reason for this trend is simply that prokaryotic have smaller genomes and not as much DNA to be replicated.</span>
