<span>The water plants contain DDT or dichlor-diphenyl-tricloroehane was developed in the 1940s as an insecticide. Because of its availability, it is inexpensive, has a high rate of longevity and can readily be produced that is why it is mostly used as the main ingredient. However, the manufacturing of this product has stopped due to the effects that it has on humans and other organisms. It can accumulate in plants and can destroy fatty tissues in organisms.</span>

<span>Nerve cells send electrical impulses along the axon. When these impulses reach the end of the neuron, they cause a release of neurotransmitters across the synapse.
</span>The axon is part of the neuron (nerve cell that carries messages), as well as dendrite. Axons pass the nerve impulses on to other cells, while dendrite <span>receive nerve impulses from other cells. </span><span>The place where the axon of one neuron meets the </span>dendrite<span> of another is called a </span>synapse.

The DNA in a cell's nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

PFK: cytoplasm

insulin: ER--> Golgi--> outside cell

Explanation:

As described in the question, the enzyme phosphofructokinase (PFK) functions is a cells cytoplasm. Enzymes are proteins and proteins are made in the ribosomes of a cell. As ribosomes are present in the cytoplasm, hence PFK once made in the ribosomes will be released into the cytoplasm.

As for insulin, it will be made in the ribosomes. from there, it will move to the Endoplasmic Reticulum for packaging. Then to the Golgi complex for modifications and further packaging. Only after these stages, it will be ready to move out from where it is produces to areas where it has to be used.

A student is considering adding Egeria densa, an aquatic plant, to her freshwater tank. She is concerned about the effects of pH
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Egeria densa is an aquatic plant which has developed different means of carrying out photosynthesis under conditions of low carbon dioxide. During the process, the plant generate low pH at the leaf surface during high light intensity and this acidification shift the process equilibrium towards carbon dioxide which will then diffuse into the cell through passive diffusion.
Thus, if the student place the plant inside her fresh water tank, the plant will increase the carbon dioxide content of the water, which will lead to an increase in pH and the increase in pH will negatively affect the fish.
