Answer:

Explanation:

Jupiter's fifth moon, Io, is the most volcanically active body in the solar system. Plumes of sulfur spew upward as high as 190 miles. The surface of Io is splotched with lava lakes and floodplains of liquid rock.

Astronomers have mapped about 150 volcanoes on the moon, some of which blast lava 250 miles (400 km) out into space. There are volcanoes all over Io's surface, and as scientists perform observations they still occasionally see new hotspots pop up. For example, NASA's Juno spacecraft, which is currently orbiting Jupiter, found a possible new hotspot on Io on Dec. 16, 2017.(k r

A hypothesis is a general principle or explanation that is derived from observations. Suppose you make the following observation

Question continued

For each statement below, mark "True" if it would be a valid hypothesis, based on these three observations alone, and mark "False" if it would not be a valid hypothesis.

1. The onion cells I looked at have a nucleus.

2. All onion cells have a nucleus.

3. All cells have a nucleus.

4. Some cells have a nucleus.

5. Only onion cells have a nucleus.

6. If I look at 10 skin cells from my hand, each one will have a nucleus.

Answer:

1. The onion cells I looked at have a nucleus. false - this is not a hypothesis, it is an observation of the evidence you collected.

2. All onion cells have a nucleus. true - this is a valid hypothesis based on the evidence you have gathered from looking at onions

3. All cells have a nucleus. true - this is a hypothesis based on you looking at 3 cell types, several samples of each, and finding that they all have a nucleus

4. Some cells have a nucleus. false - this is not a valid hypothesis. Your evidence so far suggests all cells have a nucleus

5. Only onion cells have a nucleus. - false, you know this to be false as other cell types you analysed had a nucleus

6. If I look at 10 skin cells from my hand, each one will have a nucleus. false - a hypothesis is supposed to be a general principle that is backed up by evidence, this is too specific.

Using the images or terms, describe how parts of a cell interact to export proteins.

tino4ka555 [31]

A protein is a large sequence of amino acid that was translated in ribosomes (or rough endoplasmic reticulum) from a mRNA that was transcribed in the nucleus from DNA.
If the protein has an extracellular function (like immunoglobulin) if should be exocytosed from the cell.
The protein in the cell is driven to the membrane into vesicles that have a specific receptor, which allows, while in contact with the inner side of the cell membrane to open it and let the protein being transported in the extracellular medium.
