Where does the root hair cell work on the body?

It Doesn't As: X=2.5cm which is 2000 times the length of the width of on and that is too small for the human.


Does the human body conduct heat?

NO. HUMAN and ANIMAL cannot be considered as a heat engine. the work of BOTH is not generated in the same way as a steam engine which directly transforms heat to work & lower temp. waste heat. instead, human is more like a FUEL CELL. where chemical engines is transformed into work. :)

What is a cell analogy for a school band?

In the human body, each cell has its own function and works together with other cells to perform that function, and with the rest of the cells in the body to create the whole human. Similarly, in a school band each player plays a type of instrument and works together with others in that type. As a whole, all the instruments work together to create a harmonious performance.


How does the human fertilization process work?

Human fertilization is a complex process that involves several steps: Ejacu**** and Ovulation: The most common sequence begins with ejaculat** during copulation, followed by ovulation. Sperm Journey: After ejacula****, sperm begin their journey inside the female reproductive tract until they reach the Fallopian tubes, where the egg cell is located. Out of the millions of sperm released during ejacula****, just about two hundred are able to hit the egg cell in the Fallopian tube. Penetration of the Corona Radiata: The first stage of human fertilization is the penetration of spermatozoa into the corona radiata of the egg, a coat made of cells that surrounds the egg. Sperm cells are able to go through this first barrier thanks to the release of the hyaluronidase enzyme, and the motion of their flagellum (the tail). Penetration of the Zona Pellucida: More than a single sperm cell is required to degrade the ZP. Nonetheless, in the end, only one sperm will penetrate this layer. Fusion of Membranes: The sperm plasma then fuses with the egg’s plasma membrane and their nuclei fuse1. This triggers the sperm head to disconnect from its flagellum as the egg travels down the fallopian tube to reach the uterus. Formation of Zygote: The result of this union leads to the production of a fertilized egg called a zygote, initiating embryonic development. This process can also occur outside of the body through methods like in vitro fertilization.

How do body cells and sex cells differ?

Human cells have 46 chromosomes (call that 2n, or 2 times n). Now then, if an egg cell + sperm cell = fertilized egg (which becomes a human), how many chromosomes do each have? An egg cell must have 23 chromosomes, and a sperm cell must have 23 chromosomes, because 23 + 23 = 46. When the egg (23) and sperm (23) combine to form a fertilized egg, this egg will now have 46 chromosomes. So human sex cells have n, or 23 chromosomes. If you mean to distinguish somatic chromosomes from sex chromosomes, then you have 22 pairs of somatic chromosomes plus one pair of sex chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes.


Why does bird fertilisation happen inside the females body?

When a sperm cell meets an egg cell, the head of the sperm fuses with the egg. The flagellum of the sperm is lost, its work is finished. The information in the nucleus of the male's sperm can combine with the information in the nucleus of the female's egg to produce an offspring. This important event is called fertilization. If fertilization takes place inside the female's body - as it does in mammals or birds - it is called internal fertilization. If it happens outside the female, in water, it is called external fertilization.

Who makes the baby man or women?

Making a baby is equal parts from the man and the woman. The woman's body produces the egg cell and the man's body produces sperm cells. When one of the sperm cells unites with the egg cell, then the baby starts to develop. From then on, all the work of 'making the baby' is done by the woman's body. So you could say that it takes two to start the baby but the woman 'makes the baby'!


How does human reproduction work?

A single sperm combines with the egg from a female - and the resulting cell divides many millions of times, encoding different groups of cells with 'instructions' to form into the different parts of a baby.

A scientist investigates two types of cells located in different parts in the human body Cell A contains many more mitochondria than cell B What is the best conclusion to make from this observation?

A being quite more active than B. Cell A is part of an organ that does more work than Cell B. Cell B does less work than Cell A.
