Answer: Both are single-celled microorganisms which contains plasma membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes, DNA

Explanation:

Cells are the smallest functional unit of organisms which are classified under two main categories namely:

--> prokaryotic cells and

--> eukaryotic cells.

Prokaryotes are unicellular or single-celled organisms which do not possess true nuclei. Their cell structure is simple as there is NO definite nucleus and the chromosomes lie free in a particular part of the cell. Examples of organisms that belongs to this group are the bacteria. They can only be seen through a high power of a light microscope and are found in air, water, soil and living organisms. The general structure of prokaryotes like bacteria contains Chromosome ( single DNA strand coiled up), cytoplasm, ribosome which are few cell components among others.

Eukaryotes are organisms which possess a definite or true nuclei. The cell structure is complex and highly organized with a well-defined nucleus (meaning its DNA is surrounded by a membrane). Many structures called the cell organelles are present which include: mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes with other cell components, that is the cytoplasm, plasma membrane and ribosomes. Each organelle carries out a certain type of work. Examples of organisms that belongs to this group are the amoebas.

From the explanation above, both bacteria and amoeba are single- celled organisms which contains plasma membranes, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and DNA.

A researcher claims that genetic variation provides organisms with the ability to survive and reproduce in different environment
Igoryamba

Answer:

The researcher's claim is in the same way of the observation made because from it it is inferred that in a population of bacteria with genetic variation, in which some of them have plasmids and others do not, the population survives because those bacteria with plasmids are resistant to antibiotics, if for example there were only bacteria without plasmids all bacteria would die when using antibiotics so this is an example that genetic diversity is an evolutionary advantage

Name 3 critical areas of the body that are accurately maintained by homeostasis.
tester [92]

Answer: Respiratory system, Excretory system, and Endocrine system.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the process through which several organ systems work to maintain a stable internal environment in the body. There are three organs of the body which ar eaccurately maintained by homeostasis:

Respiratory system: High carbon dioxide content in the blood triggers faster breathing. Most frequently, the lungs exhale, which quicker extracts carbon dioxide from the body.  

Endocrine system: High blood sugar content causes insulin release by an endocrine gland called pancreas. Insulin is a hormone which helps the cells absorb blood sugar.

Excretory system: A low blood level of water causes kidney accumulation of water. The kidneys contain more concentrated urine, so less water from the body is lost.  

Hence, three critical areas are respiratory system, excretory system, and endocrine system that are accurately maintained by homeostasis.
