to a scientist and asked him for his secret formula but he said I had to do the ravioli dance first before I got to see it and I made a fool of myself and died that morning
Answer:
It controls activities
Explanation:
X is the nucleus of the cell which is sometimes know as the 'brain' of the cell because it controls activities. It contains DNA that is needed to conduct most of the cell's functions.
The major function of the contractile vacuole of amoeba is osmoregulation. The solute concentration found in the cell of amoeba's cytoplasm is more than the solute concentration in the freshwater that surround the external part of the organism, thus, water enter the cell through osmosis. The contractile vacuole collect the excess water and expel it through an opening in the cell membrane. By doing this, the contractile vacuole maintains the water balance in amoeba. This how the contractile vacuole normally operate.
In a situation where amoeba is placed in seawater, then water from the cell cytoplasm will rush out of amoeba cell, because of the higher salt content of the surrounding medium. The contractile vacuole will respond to the situation by increasing its contraction and pumping water out the cell in an accelerated manner, this will lead to the shrinking of the cell.
<span>Cocaine Preparations
-Coca leaves --> Coca Paste (60% pure): Not water soluble, so you can't inject it into the bloodstream -- you need an additional chemical step to turn the paste into crystal powder that can be injected or snorted
-Coca --> Cocaine Hydrochloride (99% pure): Doesn't hold up very well to heat, so you can't smoke cocaine hydrochloride
-Cocaine Hydrochloride (99% pure) --> Free-Base Cocaine or Crack Cocaine:
-Reconvert cocaine hydrochloride back to base state by removing hydrochloride from cocaine (that's why it's called free-base cocaine)
-Crack cocaine is a crystallized form, mixture of cocaine and baking soda
-75% pure
-Can be used at lower doses and is much cheaper than cocaine
-Can be smoked</span>
This is probably to increase blood supply in the intestines. Blood is a transporter of digested food materials.
