If the water in the cell (usually a very large part of cells consist of water) freezes the expansion during freezing coupled to the crystaline nature of ice (it cannot flow) ccan cause irreperable damage. Cell membranes can fail and internal structures can be destroyed.

What is a real life example of mitosis?

When a person gets a cut on their skin, the skin cells that were at the location of the cut are gone. The cells around it will sense this and start reproducing and make new cells to replace the dead or damaged cells. They’ll stop the bleeding and form a scab, which eventually falls off.


What would happen if body temperature and blood glucose fell below the normal range?

If body temperature falls below the normal range, it can lead to hypothermia, causing symptoms like shivering, confusion, and fatigue. If blood glucose falls below the normal range, it can lead to hypoglycemia, causing symptoms like dizziness, sweating, and confusion. Both conditions can be serious and require prompt medical attention.


Why does the human body need to be maintained at 37C?

Because if the body temperature falls below 35 C an impairment of normal function will occur (slurred speech, defective vision) and if it falls below 32 C then a loss of consciousness will occur.


What is the optimum temperature for enzyme 2?

The optimum temperature for an enzyme is the temperature at which it exhibits maximum activity. For enzyme 2, its optimum temperature would be specific to that enzyme and can vary depending on its source. Usually, it falls within the range of 37-40°C for most enzymes found in human cells.


Are plant cells eukaryotic?
