An animal cell lacking carbohydrates on the external surface of its plasma membrane would likely be impaired in CELL TO CELL RECOGNITION.
Carbohydrates have diverse functions, one of their functions is that they serve as a recognition signal at the surface of cells.
Carbohydrates located on the surface of cells enable cells to recognize and communicate with one another.
Answer:
Salt in the ocean comes from rocks on land. The rain that falls on the land contains some dissolved carbon dioxide from the surrounding air. This causes the rainwater to be slightly acidic due to carbonic acid (which forms from carbon dioxide and water).
Answer:
Endocytosis is a form of active transport hence require enegry powered by ATP. The amoeba needs to change shape and engulf and envaginate the particle and then use vessicle transportation to get the materials into the cell. This requires that the cytoskeleton - composed of tubules and filaments - contracts and relax accordingly. This requires energy by ATPs just like the myosin and actin of muscle.
Phagocytosis, another form of endocytosis, is used by some cells such as immune cells to engulf foreign material and then destroy them by use of lysozymes. This is how phagocytes protect the body from invaders.
By examining the tree bark and recording it’s properties. I would note if the cells move and duplicate, I would also note any living organisms which lay on the surface
