Potatoes are considered as a starchy, tuberous root crop. Since it is a root crop, therefore, it is part of the root of the plant and is grown underground. The answer would be NO. Potatoes that are in the ground do not swell when it rains. Instead, these potatoes also absorb the rain water just like any other roots of plants do.

Scholars believe that saint luke drawing the virgin (3.6.12) is meant to show the importance of ________
hjlf

St Luke Drawing the Virgin, a masterpiece by the Dutch painter Rogier van der Weyden made in the 15th century, depicts St. Luke the Evangelist sketching the Virgin Mary as she nurses the Child Jesus. The painting is unusually rich in details, as the figures are inside an upper-class parlor that leads toward a courtyard, river, town, and landscape – a scene not even possible in movies. Despite a lot of that, the scene is perfectly balanced. Scholars believe that the painter made the painting not only to depict the artist’s adoration to the Madonna and a salute to St. Luke (patron saint of painters), but also to boast his own skill in composition and design.

A student compares the four distinct cells that could form from the stem cell after differentiation. Which statement accurately
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The statement that accurately compares and contrasts the red blood cell and the white blood cell is that both have the same copy of DNA, but different genes are expressed in the two cell types.

Explanation:

Red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC) are two highly differentiated types of cells that come from the hematopoietic system and have different functions in the blood.

Compared to WBC , RBC cells lack a nucleus and have fewer organelles, and their function is to transport gases in the blood, unlike the former which are involved in the body's defence.

<em>Cell differentiation is based on gene expression of the genome, resulting in different types of proteins synthesized in each cell, which give them a different structure and function. </em>

Both <u>WBC and RBC have the same genome</u>, but different genes are expressed in each, giving them different morphological and functional characteristics.
