When skin cells are damaged by ultraviolet radiation from the sun, they are replaced by new ones. Explain how this fact provides

evidence that supports one or more parts of cell theory?

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>When skin cells are damaged by ultraviolet radiation from the sun, the cells present in the tissue of the skin are triggered to start dividing by mitosis in order to produce new cells that replace the damaged cells. Thus, new cells are produced from the old cell.</em>

This phenomenon agrees with the part of the cell theory that says that cells can only arise from preexisting cells. More specifically, <u>cells are only able to arise from preexisting cells through the process of cell division.</u>

mash [69]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: What type of homeostatic mechanism is this species using to regulate its internal salt levels? Would be A: Conformation.

Explanation:

The reason for this being the right answer comes from the context of the question itself. You have a bacteria who is placed in a specific environment. As you study it, you realize that the salt concentration both in the internal and external environment of the bacterial cell is similar. Also, you notice that if you alter the concentrations of the outside medium, the bacteria responds by adjusting its own internal environment, However, the changes that the bacterial cell will accept before not being able to adapt its homeostatic mechanisms are not very big, and if you raise the salt level too much, then there will be a limit as to how much the bacteria can also conform to those changes. This is the mechanism described as conformation.

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.
