In order to grow and survive cells need information from their DNA and nutrients from their environment When a cell gets too big however what does it tend to do?
It divides.
What is the charge of phosphate?
Depends on the pH. At cell pH, phosphate has 3 negative charges. In acidic conditions, it can have zero. At a very high pH, it can have 4.
What is a single that has all of the items necessary to carry out life's activities?
A single cell has everything necessary to carry out life's activities.
What is voltic cell?
A voltaic cell is an electrochemical chamber or cell where chemical energy is changed to electrical energy.
Which is larger a living cell or an atom of hydrogen?
cell
What help bacteria survive harsh conditions?
Bacteria can go into a sort of hibernated state to survive in more hostile-to-life environments, such as in places with no food or water. They have a thick cellular wall.
What is the lifespan of Archaebacteria?
Archaebacteria's life span is not correctly available.They survive in harsh conditions.They exist for a long time.They have a different cell structure .This feature is responsible for their survival in extreme conditions.
Why does an endospore form?
a bacterial cell will form (essentially morph into) an endospore when its environment changes. If the cell has adapted to survive in warm, moist conditions with an abundance of proteins and then if these conditions the bacterial cell has adapted to are changed, conditions aren't warm or moist then as a survival mechanism it will essentially morph into an endospore. Then when conditions change back to the cells original ideal conditions, tiny chemoreceptors on the endospore will activate genes in the cell to morph back into its normal form.
A reproductive cell or multicellular structure that is resistant to environmental conditions?
Do your science homework kid
What do endospores do for bacteria?
It allows the bacteria to create a resistant and dormant cell that can preserve the original cells genetic material when put under extremely unfavourable conditions
Is bacillus megaterium a spore or a vegetative cell?
It is an endospore former, but it will only form endospores when the environmental conditions are harsh. Thus, it can be a vegetative cell or spore depending on environemental conditions.
When cold temperature prohibits the growth and reproduction of bacteria?
There are a number of bacteria that DO survive in harsh environments be it pH or temperature extremes or an environment that is very salty. Bacteria that don't survive in harsh conditions usually lose cell wall integrity and break apart, or lose all their intercellular fluid and shrivel up.
What is the purpose of the cell wall in the plant cell?
It provides rigidity to the cell. It provides support and gives definite shape to the cell. It is a characteristic of plant cell as as plants cannot move from one place to another to protect themselves from harsh conditions it protects the cell.
Difference between endospores and vegetative cell?
Endospores are thick-coated, resistant cells produced within a bacterial cell that has been exposed to harsh conditions. Endospores are inert and can endure extreme conditions like radiation, heat and cold, absence of nutrients and water. When conditions are good, they produce vegetative cells and thrive. When condition turn unfavorable, endospores are produced again and they remain inert. Vegetative cells are any cells of plants or animals that do not participate in reproduction. These are vulnerable to external changes and react easily. They cannot thrive in unfavorable conditions.

Who are resistant to malaria?
People with sickle cell disease, or who carry sickle cell trait, are said to be resistant to malaria.
What are the environmental conditions necessary for cell survival?
Unanswerable. What cell? Seeds contain living cells and they can survive incredible extremes of time, temperaure, humidity etc.
