Cephalopods such as squid and octopi can communicate by changing skin colors and sometimes even skin patterns. this type of communication is an example of a a chemical signal
b. sound signal
c. language
d. visual signal

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: This is an example of d. visual signal

It is not a language per se, and it is certainly not a sound signal. A chemical signal would be if they released chemicals from their body.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

d. visual signal

Explanation:

Changing color by cephalopods ssuch as squid & octopi is a type of visual signal which helps in communication. These creatures are highly social animals and for social behavior communication is a must. So, in order to communicate effectively, they often change the colors and patterns of their skin. Initially this ability to change color was meant for camouflage but later on these animals started using this ability to communicate. The control centre of such visual signals is their brain which can manipulate thechromatophores within their body. They usually use such visual signals during courtship rituals and hunting.

At which point is G3P removed from the Calvin cycle to be used in the production of carbohydrates?A. During Photophosphorylation
B. During carbon fixation
C. Immediately after reduction
D. Immediately after regeneration

Answers

The answer is C. The Calvin cycle occurs in the stroma o the chloroplast in a plant cell. It involves the dark stage where carbon dioxide is reduced by protons created in photolysis from the light stage of photosynthesis. The 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA) is phosphorylated by ATP and then immediately reduced by NADPH in the reduction step. After reduction, G3P is formed and exits the cycle. Other G3Ps are regenerated into a ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) acceptor molecule for the cycle to continue.

Bacteria and archaea differ in (1 point)

Answers

Apart from their habitats, Bacteria and Archaea differ in cell wall structure and membrane lipid composition. All bacteria have peptidoglycans in the cell wall whereas the archaea do not. Both also are different in RNA polymerases and thus in their protein synthesis.

Answer: The correct answer is-

Bacteria and archaea differ in the biochemical composition of their cell wall as bacteria have peptidoglycans in their cell wall whereas archaea do not have peptidoglycans.

Bacteria and archaea are the two groups of prokaryotes ( as they lack nucleus and membrane bound organelles) that occupy two distinct domains according to three domain system classification of Carl Woese.

They both are single celled, microscopic organisms. Archaea live in extremenly harsh environmental conditions ( such as hotsprings) whereas bacteria live in moderate environmental conditions.

Answer:

Cell Definition

“A cell is defined as the smallest, basic unit of life that is responsible for all of life’s processes.”

Cells are the structural, functional, and biological units of all living beings. A cell can replicate itself independently. Hence, they are known as the building blocks of life.  

Each cell contains a fluid called the cytoplasm, which is enclosed by a membrane. Also present in the cytoplasm are several biomolecules like proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Moreover, cellular structures called cell organelles are suspended in the cytoplasm.

Types of Cells.

Prokaryotic Cells

Prokaryotic cells have no nucleus. Instead, some prokaryotes such as bacteria have a region within the cell where the genetic material is freely suspended. This region is called the nucleoid.

They all are single-celled microorganisms. Examples include archaea, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

The cell size ranges from 0.1 to 0.5 µm in diameter.

the hereditary material can either be DNA or RNA.

Prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission, a form of sexual reproduction.

Eukaryotic Cells

Eukaryotic cells are characterised by a true nucleus.

The size of the cells ranges between 10–100 µm in diameter.

This broad category involves plants, fungi, protozoans, and animals.

The plasma membrane is responsible for monitoring the transport of nutrients and electrolytes in and out of the cells. It is also responsible for cell to cell communication.

They reproduce sexually as well as asexually.

There are some contrasting features between plant and animal cells. For eg., the plant cell contains chloroplast, central vacuoles, and other plastids, whereas the animal cells do not.

Functions of Cell:

  • Provides Support and Structure
  • Facilitate Growth Mitosis
  • Allows Transport of Substances
  • Energy Production
  • Aids in Reproduction

Cell Membrane

  • The cell membrane supports and protects the cell. It controls the movement of substances in and out of the cells. It separates the cell from the external environment. The cell membrane is present in all the cells.
  • The cell membrane is the outer covering of a cell within which all other organelles, such as the cytoplasm and nucleus, are enclosed. It is also referred to as the plasma membrane.
  • By structure, it is a porous membrane (with pores) which permit the movement of selective substances in and out of the cell.  Besides this, the cell membrane also protects the cellular component from damage and leakage.
  • It forms the wall-like structure between two cells as well as between the cell and its surroundings.
  • Plants are immobile, so their cell structures are well-adapted to protect them from external factors. The cell wall helps to reinforce this function.

What is Osmosis?

Osmosis is a passive process and happens without any expenditure of energy. It involves the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration until the concentrations become equal on either side of the membrane.

Any solvent can undergo the process of osmosis including gases and supercritical liquids.

Osmotic Solutions

There are three different types of solutions:

An isotonic solution: is one that has the same concentration of solutes both inside and outside the cell.

A hypertonic solution: is one that has a higher solute concentration outside the cell than inside.

A hypotonic solution; is the one that has a higher solute concentration inside the cell than outside.

Effect of Osmosis on Cells

Osmosis affects the cells differently. An animal cell will lyse when placed in a hypotonic solution compared to a plant cell. The plant cell has thick walls and requires more water. The cells will not burst when placed in a hypotonic solution. In fact, a hypotonic solution is ideal for a plant cell.

An animal cell survives only in an isotonic solution. In an isotonic solution, the plant cells are no longer turgid and the leaves of the plant droop.

The osmotic flow can be stopped or reversed, also called reverse osmosis, by exerting an external pressure to the sides of the solute. The minimum pressure required to stop the solvent transfer is called the osmotic pressure

Significance of Osmosis

  • Osmosis influences the transport of nutrients and the release of metabolic waste products.
  • It is responsible for the absorption of water from the soil and conducting it to the upper parts of the plant through the xylem.
  • It stabilizes the internal environment of a living organism by maintaining the balance between water and intercellular fluid levels.
  • It maintains the turgidity of cells.
  • It is a process by which plants maintain their water content despite the constant water loss due to transpiration.
  • This process controls the cell to cell diffusion of water.
  • Osmosis induces cell turgor which regulates the movement of plants and plant parts.
  • Osmosis also controls the dehiscence of fruits and sporangia.
  • Higher osmotic pressure protects the plants against drought injury.
