Describe two things that would happen in an ecosystem if there were no unicellular organisms. Explain why something with only on
Ierofanga [76]

Unicellular organisms include bacteria, protists, and yeast. For example, a paramecium is a slipper-shaped, unicellular organism found in pond water. It takes in food from the water and digests it in organelles known as food vacuoles. Nutrients from the food travel through the cytoplasm to the surrounding organelles, helping to keep the cell, and thus the organism, functioning. Multicellular organisms are composed of more than one cell, with groups of cells differentiating to take on specialized functions. In humans, cells differentiate early in development to become nerve cells, skin cells, muscle cells, blood cells, and other types of cells. One can easily observe the differences in these cells under a microscope. Their structure is related to their function, meaning each type of cell takes on a particular form in order to best serve its purpose. Nerve cells have appendages called dendrites and axons that connect with other nerve cells to move muscles, send signals to glands, or register sensory stimuli.  Outer skin cells form flattened stacks that protect the body from the environment. Muscle cells are slender fibers that bundle together for muscle contraction. The cells of <u>multicellular</u> organisms may also look different according to the organelles needed inside of the cell. For example, muscle cells have more mitochondria than most other cells so that they can readily produce energy for movement; cells of the pancreas need to produce many proteins and have more <u>ribosomes</u> and rough <u>endoplasmic</u> <u>reticula</u> to meet this demand. Although all cells have organelles in common, the number and types of organelles present reveal how the cell functions.

Hope that helps!!

Which type of enzyme ensures that the correct base for growing the chain is aligned with the template chain? a. ligases b. prima
White raven [17]

DNA Polymerases type of enzyme ensures that the correct base for growing the chain is aligned with the template chain.

<h3>What is DNA Polymerase?</h3>
  • The family of enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of DNA molecules from nucleoside triphosphates, the basic building blocks of DNA, includes DNA polymerase.
  • These enzymes, which are required for DNA replication, typically function in groups to divide an initial DNA duplex into two identical copies.
  • DNA polymerase "reads" the pre existing DNA strands throughout this process to produce two new strands that are identical to the preexisting ones.
  • Deoxyribonucleotides, the components of DNA, are synthesized by DNA polymerase as its primary purpose.
  • The nucleotides and bases found on each strand of the original DNA molecule are paired to form the DNA copies.
  • This coupling always occurs in certain pairings, with cytosine and guanine constituting one pair and thymine and adenine forming the other.
  • RNA polymerases, on the other hand, create RNA from ribonucleotides that are either found in RNA or DNA.

What chemicals regulate the cell cycle how do they work?
Molodets [167]
Cyclins are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>
