Answer: Felipe is wrong.

Explanation:

In diagram A, we can see that the light comes from the left, it first impacts on the Earth, and then we have the Moon.

Now, you can model this situation with a flashlight (the Sun) a basketball (the Earth) and a tennis ball (the Moon)

When you point with the flashlight at the basketball, the basketball will look bright, but it will cast a shadow behind it. This shadow will cover the tennis ball, and almost no light will reach the tennis ball, so it will not look bright.

This phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, and this happens when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, we see the moon a bit darker and more reddish.

The cells that produce hair contain a lot of ________, while the cells that produce the oils that coat the hair contain a lot of
AnnZ [28]

Answer:The cells that produce hair contain a lot of ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM , while the cells that produce the oils that coat the hair contain a lot of SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM.

Explanation: ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM or  RER is a cisternae organelle that have two faces: the cytosolic face and the nucleus face. The cytosolic face is studded with ribosomes that are responsible for synthesizing proteins, a process known as translation. In the cells that produce hair, keratinocytes, the main protein synthesized is keratin.

SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM is an organelle that lacks ribosomes and the function is related to lipid synthesis, different case that proteins synthesis. Specialized cells located in the SER (smooth endoplasmic reticulum) produces the oils that coat the hair called sebum to lubricate the hair. These cells secrete the sebum in an holocrine way. The composition of the sebum is made of triglycerides, wax esters, squalene.

What advantages are there for larger organisms to subdivide themselves into cells
WINSTONCH [101]

Cell division occurs in all living organisms. This is known as mitosis.

The advantages of a larger organisms to subdivide themselves into smaller cells is that as all organisms grow, some of their cells die or get damaged with time and need replacements. So,it divides into smaller cells because when a cell becomes large, it demands more of cell places of its DNA. If the cell grows too large, it will have trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. So to grow properly the cells need to be divided.

Answer:

sickle cell disease or sickle cell disease is about the inheritance of metaplastic cells or cells that do not respect normal cell morphology from the mother or father to a child.

This is not associated with cultures, instead lactose tolerance is.

Explanation:

Lactose tolerance is basically an adaptation of the body in those humans who continue to drink milk throughout their lives, once the growth stage is over, milk should be suspended, although some continue to consume it and lactase continues to be encoded and expressed.

Some people for cultural reasons or environmentalist lifestyles do not drink animal milk, but rather vegetable milk.
