Answer:

C

Explanation:

cell wall

When water moves into a plant cell, the vacuole gets bigger, pushing the cell membrane against the cell wall. The force of this increases the turgor pressure within the cell making it firm or turgid . The pressure created by the cell wall stops too much water entering and prevents cell lysis.

Answer:

Cell Membrane---Semi-permeable

Explanation:

All cells have cell membranes, regardless of the type, and they are all semi-permeable, or selectively permeable, which means they can regulate what enters and leaves the cell.

What is the function of enzymes in cells​
Agata [3.3K]
Enzymes are biological molecules (typically proteins) that significantly speed up the rate of virtually all of the chemical reactions that take place within cells. They are vital for life and serve a wide range of important functions in the body, such as aiding in digestion and metabolism.

PLEASE HELP IM DESPERATE
Furkat [3]

Answer:

8. D

9. A

10. A

11. C

12. D

Explanation:

8. Natural selection works on variation that exists in the genes of organisms. Antelopes who have genetic variation that makes their legs more muscular are at an advantage because they can outrun predators. This increases the chance that they will reach reproductive age, and be able to pass this advantageous trait onto their offspring. Over time, this selection pressure makes the variant more common in a population.

9. Beneficial traits are those that give a selective advantage. This could be one that helps it outrun predators (like above), avoid illness and death, gives it a reproductive advantage (i.e. more attractive to mates), or makes it better able to digest certain foods, for example. The formation of cancer cells would be harmful for an organism, reducing its fitness and perhaps leading to death. The inability to reproduce would mean genetic info is not passed on to the next generation, and stopping the production of an essential protein would likely lead to death. However, resistance to a virus would help an organism avoid illness and death, improving fitness.

10. Genotypes are what organisms inherit from their parents, i.e. the genetic information that is passed on. However, the way in which different alleles interact and are expressed is the phenotype. If we take the above example, natural selection is acting on the phenotype of muscular legs. If an antelope had the muscular leg genotype but for some reason it was not being expressed (maybe another gene is interfering with it), then the antelope would not have a selective advantage, and natural selection could not be act on the trait.

11. A trait that better suits an organism to its environment will be selected for by natural selection. This is because that organism is more likely to survive due to the trait, giving it a selective advantage. Therefore, if a mutation arose making the giraffe more adapted to the environment, it would be positively selected for, and through evolution would become more common.

12. This is an example of selective breeding, which has been happening for generations. Farmers spot desirable traits, and cross horses with these traits in an attempt to enhance the trait or to ensure it is passed on to the next generation. This is not natural selection, because farmers are making it happen artificially. It is not cloning or recombinant DNA, which are terms scientists use for actually manipulating the DNA in the lab.

What happens to a cell to specialize as a red blood cell
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Red blood cells transport oxygen around the body. They are specialised to carry oxygen because they: contain large quantities of a protein called haemoglobin , which can bind oxygen. don't have a nucleus, so there is more room for haemoglobin.

What did edison learn from his attempts to see his first patented invention
Simora [160]
This invention was a commercial failure. Edison resolved that in the future he would only invent things that he was certain the public would want. ... This gave Edison the money he needed to set up his first small laboratory and manufacturing facility in Newark, New Jersey in 1871.
