What are 3 ways that cells are similar to organisms in function?

Semmy [17]2 years ago

In an analogy, three ways that cells are similar to organisms are:

(1) Ability to reproduce
(2) Respiration
(3) Digestion and excretion

First, the cells have an ability to reproduce or divide (cell division or mitosis). Cell division is a process when a parent cell produces two identical daughter cells. This is similar to organisms as organisms also has the capability to reproduce either sexually or asexually. 

Second, there is the function of the cells called cellular respiration. This is when the cells use oxygen to use glucose or fats for energy and release carbon dioxide as a waste product. Organisms breathe in and use oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide.

Lastly, cells perform endocytosis and exocytosis. Cells can take in solutes bulk transportation (endocytosis) similar to organisms eating food. Cells also release hormones, enzymes, or waste products in bulk through the process called exocytosis, which is similar when organisms excrete waste.

What equipment should a food worker use to reheat a baked potato?
sp2606 [1]

If you want to reheat potatoes that are already cooked on a pan or fried, they may mash or dry, especially if they are fried. Better to avoid this practice for taste reasons, even if we can possibly heat them in the pan.


How to do?

To reheat potatoes boiled in water or steam, fry them in the pan: this is the best way to get the right result to taste, and you can also heat them in the microwave. cutting them into pieces so that reheating is easier and more uniform.

Answer the following True or False: A hypothesis test was conducted to see if a new HIV vaccination reduces the risk of contract
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - true.

Explanation:

Type I error occurs when the alternate hypothesis is accepted though it is false. A type II error is the failure to reject a false null hypothesis or an alternative hypothesis is rejected even though it is true.

For instance of type II errors: a blood test designed to detect the disease failing to detect the disease in a patient who really has the disease. In the given case vaccination not approved even though reduce the risk of contracting the HIV virus.

Thus, the correct answer is - true.

Alona [7]
<h2><em>EXPLANATION</em><em>:</em><em>-</em></h2>

<h3><em>Since there was already an anti resistant microorganisms that actuallly have been able to survive through the antibiotics, natural selection states that if one survives and is well adapted to a certain environment, then offspring from that survivor will be created and beneficial traits for the offspring will be received having them a chance for survival. So, the microorganisms spread and spread offspring with that anti resistance in which is the Survival of the Fittest. Until there are no microorganisms that aren’t resistant the lastahas strep throat then returns.</em></h3>

Explain how the data from your experiments showed that cyanide was used to poison Jared, and that 2-deoxyglucose, arsenic and ol
Aliun [14]

The question is incomplete as the background of the case and symptoms of Jarod is not provided, however, the missing data required for the question is as follows:

Jared was investigating a drug cartel and ate a meal with one of the suspects. After the meal, he had trouble breathing and felt weak and dizzy. Jared may have been poisoned. He is being taken to the CIA hospital for treatment. You are a medical toxologist working for the CIA. It is your job to find out what poison was given to Jared and try to save his life. Patient: Jared Sondheim Age: 32 Occupation: CIA Agent Symptoms: Muscle Weakness Shortness of Breath Dizziness. Jared has arrived at the hospital! It is your job to find out what toxin was used to poison Jared. You can then give him the correct antidote to save Jared's life.

Answer:

Poisning by 2-deoxyglucose syops the glycolysis process which leads to cardiovascular and respiratory symptoms. Due to property of inhibiting the enzyme reqquired for glycolysis, glucokinase. So, there is no ATP production takes place.

Arsenic poisoning inhibits the second stae of cellular respiration, the Krebs cycle which leads to pyruvate accumalation. The symptoms associated with arsenic are diarrhea, sking tone, abdomunal pain, and muscle cramps.

Oligomycin is used as an antibiotic to inhibit proton ATPase present in mitochondria membrane which blocks ATP formation. Watery eyes, cough, congestion in chest and nose are sysmptopms of oligomycin poisining.

The symptoms cyanide poisoning are dizziness, short breath, nd muscle weakness which matches with the symptoms of jarod.
