terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.
a. nucleolus
b. centromere
c. ribosome
d. chromatin
e. centriole
f. mitochondrion
1. contains the genetic material that is responsible for maintaining hereditary information.
2. is the structure for the production of ribosomes.
3. is the site of oxidative phosphorylation and production of relatively large amounts of ATP.
4. is the structure where various RNAs, enzymes, and other molecular species assemble the primary sequence of a protein.
5. is a cytoplasmic structure involved (through the formation of spindle fibers) in the migration of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis of animal cells.
6. serves as an attachment point for sister chromatids and a region where spindle fibers attach to chromosomes.

Answer:

a. Nucleolus: The nucleolus refers to a composition, which develops with the assistance of the nucleolar organizer region present in the eukaryotes. It constitutes protein and ribosomal DNA and is a location where the generation of ribosomes takes place.  

b. Centromere: The prime function of the centromere is to function as the point of attachment for sister chromatids and is a place where the attachment of chromosomes and spindle fibers takes place. The differentiation of centromere takes place at the time of mitosis and meiosis II, which helps in the distribution of chromosomal substances to the daughter cells.  

c. Ribosome: The ribosome refers to the composition where different forms of RNAs, enzymes and other components help in the alignment of the primary sequence of a specific protein.  

d. Chromatin: Chromatin constitutes the genetic information, which helps in sustaining hereditary information and generation of a phenotype.  

e. Centriole: The centriole refers to a cytoplasmic composition, which via the help of spindle fibers assists in the migration of chromosomes at the time of meiosis and mitosis, mainly in the animal cells.  

f. Mitochondria: The mitochondrion refers to a membrane-bound composition situated in the eukaryotic cytoplasm. It is the place where the production of huge amounts of ATP takes place via the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Drag each tile to the correct box. The flu vaccine activates adaptive immunity. How does this occur? Antibodies are quickly prod
mestny [16]

Answer:

The correct order would be:

A vaccine introduces a weakened flu virus into the body.

                                                        ↓

The immune system identifies antigens on the weakened flu virus.

                                                        ↓

Antibodies are produced, which bind to the weakened flu virus and signal immune cells to destroy it.

                                                        ↓

The actual flu virus enters the body, and lymphocytes recognize the antigens.

                                                        ↓

Antibodies are quickly produced and allow the body to fight off the infection.

Vaccination or immunization is the process which helps in developing the immunity (adaptive) against a particular pathogen or microorganism.

It includes the administration of antigen, weakened or heat-killed microorganism (such as flu virus) into the patients body. Body's immune system produces naive B and T cells to eliminate the antigen.

This encounter enables the immune system to produce memory B and T cells against that particular pathogen.

In future, whenever the same antigen enters the body, the immune system gets activated quickly due to the presence of memory cells. It enables the body to produce more effective secondary response against the pathogen.

Shrimp are primary consumers that feed on photosynthetic organisms. why would these organisms likely be found only in shallow oc
astra-53 [7]
Since shrimp pray on photosynthetic organisms, they are dependant on their prey's location.
The photosynthetic organisms need sunlight in order to produce energy, so they then to live in shallow waters, because the sunlight penetrates only a small upper layer of the water's surface.
So, shrimp live in shallow waters because their pray can only live there.

How does industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive?
Tcecarenko [31]

Industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive by using fertilizers and using processed feeds to feed the animals. Fertilizers contain harmful chemicals that may not be seen on the plants since its main function is to kill the pests that eats the plants. What makes it destructive is when the particles of the fertilizer is mixed with water and then leached into the soil into the water table. The once pure water table is now contaminated. The accumulation of various chemicals from the pesticide can cause the death of aquamarine life and even humans. Also, it can destroy the components of the soil overtime because it can interact with other compounds found in the soil to create a harmful product.

Norma-Jean [14]
There are 3 parts of cell theory: all living things are made up of cells, all cells come from pre existing cells, and the cell is the basic unit of life. S<em>ince Schleiden and Schwann’s experiments proved that certain tissues were made up of cells (and those tissues are from living organisms), it most closely relates to the part that all living things are made up of cells. Hope this helps! (Also I apologize for the text going italic I’m not sure why it happened)</em>
