Nearly all plant cells and many bacteria are surrounded by a cell wall. However, the roles these walls play in cell division dif

fer dramatically. In plants, the wall is sufficiently rigid so that in most cells, constriction of a ring of proteins could not cause the wall to fold in and eventually pinch off. Rather, a new plant cell wall is produced between the daughter cells by the formation of a cell plate, which eventually joins with the existing cell wall. In contrast, in bacteria, the cell wall is sufficiently flexible to fold in during constriction of the FtsZ protein ring.
Bacteria lack the distinct microfilaments and microtubules that dominate the cytoskeletons of plant and animal cells. However, bacteria contain proteins that are similar to actin (the building block of microfilaments) and tubulin (the building block of microtubules). The tubulin-like proteins in bacteria function in the formation of two daughter cells through binary fission.
(A) In prokaryotes, constriction of a ring of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/ tubulin-like proteins) cause infolding of the plasma membrane and cell wall during cell division (binary fission).
(B) In plant cells, a network of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/tubulin-like proteins) functions in the formation of the cell plate.
(C) In animal cells, a ring of _______ (microtubules/ microfilaments/tubulin-like proteins) constricts, creating a cleavage furrow.

Answer: A. protein like tubules

B. Microtubules

C. Microfilaments

Explanation:

Cytokinesis in the bacteria is facilitated by the presence of these conserved tubulin-like proteins. Due to the fact that their walls are flexible, constriction of these walls is possible aiding in cytokinesis. Unlike in plant that have rigid cell wall, a cell plate is involved in the formation of a new cell wall between the daughter cells. Network of microtubules determines the position of the cell plate which is mostly like a disc in the middle of the two daughter cells. Cleavage furrow occurs in animal cells which is caused by the action of the contractile ring: a ring of actin microfilament.

Olin [163]

Answer:

There are four fates for acetyl CoA in the human body. Here are all the fates of acetyl CoA:

Explanation:

1. Acetyl CoA in the mitochondria can be used in the electron transport chain to form CO₂ and water.

2. Acetyl CoA can synthesize ketonebodies which are oxidized for energy  in the liver.

3. Acetyl CoA outside of the mitochondria and inside the cytosol can also be used to make fatty acids from glucose.

4. Acetyl CoA in the cytoplasm will also go on to synthesize cholesterol.

Altogether, the functions of acetyl CoA in the body is diverse and multi functional. The cells in other parts of the body do most of these functions but the ketone bodies formed in the liver creates a large amount of ketone bodies that are transported elsewhere.

Considering that a hydrophilic stain was used to stain the skin, explain why the fat vacuoles in adipocytes are white (Hint: Rem
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The hydrophilic nature of the stain explains that these molecules are polar and charge molecules. therefore, attracts the water molecule but due to their polar nature, it will avoid lipid or fat molecules.

Adipocytes are the cells that are made up of fat or lipids that are hydrophobic due to their non-polar nature and due to this fact, these hydrophilic stains will not be able to stain adipocytes and will not be colored by the stain.

Which of the following statements is true?
ziro4ka [17]
Lipids contain more energy that carbohydrates because they contain more carbon to hydrogen bonds to release energy when broken.

<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.
