What is an organism that may limit the growth rate of an organism?
Pathogens such as a bacterium or a virus can influence the growth rate of the host organism. Virus (not really an organism) can infect a bacterium and integrate their genetic material. This changes the homeostasis of the bacteria, because viral proteins would be start producing by the host. hence the host can not grow as a normal organism after infection.
The term is used to refer to an individual living thing?
An organism.
What can an organism do while living in an organism?
An organism that lives in another organism can kill it. At times this organism can live quite awhile in another organism.
Is the nerve cell an organism or apart of an organism?
Part of an organism
What is an organism with no ribosmes?
No organism!
What is a poikilotherm?
A poikilotherm is an organism that its temperature fluctuates based on the temperature of its surrounding.
Is a fish a homeotherm or poikilotherm?
a homeotherm
Is a salamander a poikilotherm?
yes, their body temperatures can vary considerably
How many cells can organism have?
There isn't a strict limit. At some point an organism may become simply too large to maintain itself but the exact number of cells such an organism might have is incalculable.
Is there another word for a cold blooded animal?
The scientific term for a cold blooded animal is Poikilotherm it is also ectothermic
Are night cnidarians endothermic or ectothermic?
They are a special type of ectotherm called a poikilotherm meaning they have the same body temperature as their ambient surroundings.
How many cells does a multi-cellular organism have?
There isn't a strict limit. At some point an organism may become simply too large to maintain itself but the exact number of cells such an organism might have is incalculable.

Why is a human a organism?
in a human body, there are division of labour. cells ,tissues, organ,and systems. human brain can think out of a limit.
What are the affects of a mutation?
MutationA mutation produces an abnormal gene, which may limit, not effect, or enhance the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce. A mutation does not have any set effects on the organism, as the mutated gene may not change the appearance of the organism. Mutations of normal cells in an organism can cause cancer, as cancer is just normal cells that have been damaged in such a way as to grow out of control.
Can the genome of an organism be taken as a template for PCR?
No about 16,000 bases is about the limit that you can do for PCR so perhaps you could use an entire viral genome (or a cDNA copy) as a PCR template but not an entire genome of cellular organism even if you ignore the fact that a eukaryotic organism has it's genome spread over separate chromosomes.
What animals maintain a steady body temperature?
"Homeotherms" maintain a steady body temperature and are warm-blooded, as opposed to "Poikilotherms" which are cold-blooded.An example of a homeotherm is a Lion, an example of a poikilotherm is a Crocodile.
