Which cell function would be affected if a cell's vacuoles were destroyed?

Masteriza [31]

vacuoles are those cell which help in storage of water and minerals. plant have one vacuoles in plant cell but animal have abundant of small vacuoles cell. If there are no vacuoles there would be no reserves of food minerals, water, minerals etc in cells.

Becky is a 53-year-old woman living in Seattle, Washington, with her husband Tim and their dog Tipper. Even though they both hav

Alika [10]

Answer:

Becky’s doctor provided only supportive care because the toxin that poisoned her, the demoic acid, has no known antidotes; which happen to be the only cure for toxins.

Antimicrobial were not part of Becky's treatment because Becky was infected by a toxin and not a microbial infection.

Diatoms are not different from eukaryotic cells or eukaryotes. they are Eukaryotes, which are different from prokaryotes. However both the eukaryotes (diatoms) and the prokaryotes possess cytoplasm, plasma membrane and ribosomes.

Explanation:

Demoic acid is a marine bio-toxin that results in Amnesic Shellfish poisoning (ASP). This biotoxin is produced by diatoms of the species Nitzschia navis-varingica of the genus Pseudo-Nitzschia. This intoxication can result in symptoms ranging from gastrointestinal upset (vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, hemorrhagic gastritis) to neurological disturbances (including headaches, diziness, disorientation, vision disturbances, loss of short term memory, motor weakness, abnormal heart rhythm, unstable blood pressure, etc.). In more severe cases, it could lead to permanent short term memory loss, brain damage, coma, and death. Due to the lack of antidotes for this toxin, it is advised that medical attention be sought as soon as possible, where the patient can be closely monitored and cared for.

There's a difference between toxins and microbial infections. while Microbial infections are caused by harmful microorganisms infecting the body tissue and cells, toxins are harmful substances produced by microorganisms. Hence, the approach for treatment for both cases are different.

Diatoms are eukaryotic cells or eukaryotes, which are organisms that have a membrane enclosing in their nucleus, hence they have a true nucleus and organelles bound by a membrane, supporting functions in compartments. Prokayotic cells or prokayotes, on the other hand, which are typically smaller, do not possess a protective membrane around their nucleus or any organelles enclosed by the membrane. Regardless of their differences, they still both share similarities. After all, they both are cells. So they have the basic features of cells. These similarities include the possession of a cytoplasm, ribosomes, plasma membrane.

Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi

Debora [2.8K]

This is because if the two metabolic processes were to be active at at the same time;

Two molecules of ATPs and Guanosine triphophate (sometimes used for energy transport) will be expended per each cycle, with no compensatory rate of replacements present at the moment in the cell,this affects cell metabolism for energy availability

2 Both Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis are both exergonic processes in cells. The heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently; the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid cycle can metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production. Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for Glycolysis to continue. Therefore to sustain Glycolysis at this rate continuous supply of glucose is supplied from Gluconeogenesis.
