How do all fungi acquire energy?

Fungi acquire energy through a process called extracellular digestion, where they release enzymes to break down organic matter in their environment into smaller molecules that can be absorbed. They then use these molecules as a source of nutrients and energy for growth and reproduction.


Are organic compounds produced only in organisms?

Organic molecules are most abundantly found inside living organisms, but they are dispersed throughout the world's biosphere; in addition, there are interstellar gas clouds which contain organic molecules, and the atmosphere of some of the moons in the outer solar system is known to contain organic molecules, and there are likely to be many other places in the universe where we haven't looked yet, that also contain organic molecules.


Glucose is a molecule that can move across the cell membrane if the concentration of glucose is high or inside the cell than outside the cell then what will happen by the process of diffusion?

glucose molecules will diffuse out of the cell. apex


What is cytosol and what does it contain?

A cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm, which is the part of the cell outside the nucleus. Cytosol consists mostly of water, dissolved ions, small molecules, and large water-soluble molecules (such as protein).


How do water molecules move in hypotonic solutions?

In a hypotonic solution, water molecules move into the cell because the concentration of solutes is higher inside the cell compared to outside. This movement of water is called osmosis, and it occurs to equalize the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell.

Are Epithelial cells a class of organic molecules?

No. Epithelium is a protective layer of cells typically covering the outside of an organ or the lining of the wall of a cavity in the body. All body cells need organic molecules to provide energy for building proteins, lipids, and other organic molecules.


What is the difference between organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry?

Generally speaking, Organic chemistry deals with carbon based molecules,(these molecules will often contain: Carbon, oxygen. nitrogen and hydrogen) while inorganic deals with everything else. . Organic chemicals have a carbon based skeleton which provides the framework of the molecule. Of course there are parts of each branch of chemistry that overlap and all branches are connected through the natural laws that govern the behavior of all atoms and molecules.

What clauses is this Becouse it was raining outside?

1) Becouse is spelt because 2) Raining is a clause 3) Outside is a clause If the question was that you had to pick one, choose Raining otherwise both of them. Hope this helps


Independent vs dependent variables?

Free from outside control means Independent . While dependent Is opposite.


What process keeps the amount of molecules inside and outside of the cell in balance?

Diffusion keeps the amounts of molecules inside and outside the cell in balance, or in a state of homeostasis.
