Answer:

Please find the similarities and differences between these cells below.

Explanation:

According to this question, six specific cells are examined. They are: neuron, red blood cell, osteocyte, skeletal muscle cell, sperm cell, and egg cell.

SIMILARITIES:

These cells are cells that make up different tissues and systems in living organisms. They perform different functions in their respective locations, however, they are similar in the sense that they all possess some cellular components called organelles. The organelles that are common to all these types of cells are CELL MEMBRANE, RIBOSOMES, MITOCHONDRIA, GENETIC MATERIAL (DNA), NUCLEUS,

They also possess two set of chromosomes in their nucleus i.e. diploid.

DIFFERENCES:

However, they differ in their functions. For example;

- neuron: nerve cell whose function is related to the nervous system

- red blood cell: blood cell whose function is related to circulatory system

- osteocyte: bone cell whose function is related to the skeletal system

- skeletal muscle cell- muscle cell whose function is related to the muscular system

- sperm cell: a male sex cell whose function is related to reproduction

- egg cell: a female sex cell whose function is related to reproduction

What do monosaccharides provide for cells?

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

They are building blocks for larger polysaccharide which are important in structural rigidity of cells.

Polysaccharides such as Starch and Cellulose which are instrumental in cell structure and rigidity are formed from chains of monosaccharides.

They are also useful in the provision of energy which is used in cell functions (metabolism).

Monosaccharides such as Glucose, Sucrose are useful in provision of energy for physical and metabolic activities of the body.

The answer is one (1) billion tons of phytoplankton at any one time. Annually, its recorded that there is approximately 45 billion tons of phytoplankton in the ocean. Other than being a source of food for fish, they are critical in the carb9n cycle. This phytoplankton incorporates 45–50 billion tons of inorganic carbon into their cells and are the largest source of atmospheric oxygen.
