List and explain the function of four organelles found in eukaryotic cells. HELP NOW !

Biology
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]2 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Below is a list of organelles that are commonly found in eukaryotic cells.

Organelle: Function

Nucleus: The “brains” of the cell, the nucleus directs cell activities and contains genetic material called chromosomes made of DNA.

Mitochondria: Make energy out of food

Ribosomes: Make protein

Golgi Apparatus: Make, process and package proteins

Lysosome: Contains digestive enzymes to help break food down

Endoplasmic Reticulum: Called the "intracellular highway" because it is for transporting all sorts of items around the cell.

Vacuole: Used for storage, vacuoles usually contain water or food. (Are you are thirsty? Perhaps your vacuoles need some water!)

Plant cells also have:

Chloroplasts: Use sunlight to create food by photosynthesis

Cell Wall: For support

Write about the structure and the purpose of Fat or Lipids.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

A lipid is any of various organic compounds that are insoluble in water. They include fats, waxes, oils, hormones, and certain components of membranes and function as energy-storage molecules and chemical messengers.

If color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait, what genotype in a father and a mother would be predicted to produce a 1:1 ra
Likurg_2 [28]
The genotype would be X'Y for the father (he would be colorblind)
The genotype would be X'X for the mother (she would be a carrier)
The offspring would be X'X' _ X'X_ X'Y_ XY
The ratio would be 1:1 normal to colorblind

During which phase of meiosis does each of the following events occur?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

(a) crossing over: Meiosis I, Recombination  

(b) chromatids separate at their centromeres and migrate to opposite poles: Meiosis II, Anaphase II

(c) chromosomes become aligned in pairs at the equator: Meiosis II, Metaphase II

Explanation:

Homologous recombination is a type of genetic recombination that occurs during meiosis (formation of ovum and sperm cells). The paired chromosomes of the male and female parents are aligned so that similar DNA sequences intersect. This crossing over produces an exchange of genetic material, which is an important cause of the genetic variability observed in the offspring.

Meiosis II: Anaphase II. The centromeres separate and the daughter chromatids - now individual chromosomes - move to the opposite poles of the cell. The centromeres separate, and the two chromatids of each chromosome move toward the opposite poles in the spindle.

Meiosis II: Metaphase II. Chromosomes are accommodated in the equatorial plate of metaphase, similar to what happens in mitosis. They are attached to the already fully formed meiotic spindle. Each chromosome is aligned in the equatorial plate of the metaphase, as it happens in mitosis.

A normal chromosome and its homolog carrying an inversion are given. the dot (•) represents the centromere. normal: a b c • d e
kotegsom [21]

The type of inversion is Paracentric inversion.

There are two types of inversion at the chromosome level, depending on the centromere:

Paracentric inversions:

the centromere is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions:

The centromere is included in the inversion which can transform a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.

the structure that will form during synapsis is inversion loop.

These inversions are balanced rearrangements but at the moment of meiosis they cause difficulties in pairing. There is most often formation of a pairing loop. The occurrence of recombination in the inverted segment causes the formation of abnormal gametes by duplication / impairment.
