Do extra membranes increase or decrease the organelles surface area to volume ratio?

Biology
1 answer:
kramer2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

DOWN IN THE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells have internal folding of the cell membrane which are responsible for certain functions like respiration. These foldings increase the surface area.

Eukaryotic cells are compartmentalized which is a method to increase the surface area as there are lots of membranes inside the cell across which many processes take place.

In some cells like the ones making the lining of the villi in the small intestine there are folding in the outer cell membrane which also increases the surface area,

Suppose that allele D produces tiny ears and allele d produces normal ears. A heterozygous male with the Dd genotype mates with
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 35 percent.

Explanation:

Allele D produced tiny ears, and allele d produces normal ones. If a heterozygous male with Dd mates with the homozygous female with dd, then generally, the expected offspring produced will be 50 percent with tiny ears, and 50 percent with normal ears.  

However, in the given case, the penetrance is 70 percent. Thus, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears will be:  

Penetrance = 70 %

Probability = 70 % of 50 % of 100

= 70/100 * 50/100 * 100

= 35 %

Hence, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears is 35%.

Which substances do cells need to produce energy? Check all that apply.
a_sh-v [17]

Answer: oxygen and sugar molecules

Explanation: During cellular respiration, cells produce energy through the breakdown of sugar molecules in the presence of oxygen. Cellular respiration is a process by which glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide and water. The energy produced in cellular respiration is used to drive other cellular processes.

The equation for cellular respiration is C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy.

According to the dichotomous key, in what way(s) is the house sparrow similar to the cobra? A) Both are autotrophic and live on
vitfil [10]

The correct answer is the option (D) Both are not a mammal, are multicellular, and are heterotrophic.

Keys in biology are used to identify the different species based on the easily identifiable features of the organism. A dichotomous key consists of a series of questions on features like habitat, mode of nutrition, class to which they belong and other features, with each question having two answers describing the characteristic features of an organism. The series of questions begin with a broader characteristic feature becoming narrow gradually and helping in the identification of the organism.

Both the house sparrow and a cobra cannot synthesize their own food and depend on other organisms for food. Hence they are heterotrophic. They are multicellular in nature. A cobra belongs to the class Repltiles and a house sparrow belongs to the class Aves. Thus, a house sparrow and a cobra are similar to each other in being multicellular, heterotrophic and not belonging to the class mammals.
