Answer:
D) Energy is required in order to maintain homeostasis--without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
Explanation:
Homeostasis is the condition of relative stability that the body needs to perform its functions properly for the body's balance.
Despite changes that may occur in the body, internally or externally, homeostasis is the constancy of the internal environment (interstitial fluid). Keeping at an appropriate temperature (37º C) ensuring that the necessary changes to the body occur; and thus the cells of the body develop.
Because of homeostasis, cells need a constant supply of energy. That's because energy is needed to maintain homeostasis - without a constant, organized internal state, the cell will die.
Out of the following given choices;
A. The cell is unable to get more water into the cell.
B. The cell is unable to build more protein molecules.
C. The cell is unable to produce water molecules inside the cell.
D. The cell is unable to maintain a stable internal environment.
<span>The answer is D. Due to high amounts of proteins in the cell, osmotically
active proteins cause the internal environment of the cell to be hypertonic to
the extracellular fluid. This causes excess water to enter the cell by osmosis and
resulting in lysis. </span>
<span>The energy to this reaction can be provided by adding a catalyst enzyme : DNA polymerase. Energy is released when this enzyme cuts off 2 phosphate groups from the end of the nucelotide. This energy is sufficient to link the nucleotide to the DNA.</span>
I'm not sure but if you are talking about cells I think it is cytoplasm.
