Lab 10: Cell Structure & Function Questions 1. For each structure identified‚ do you think its location affects its ability to function? Why or why not? (Hint: those buried deep in the cell probably do different things than those closer to the cell membrane) Structure does not affect function of the cells‚ cells have a particular structure that enables them to carry out their function in the best way. Everything in a cell is there to enable it to perform in the most efficient manner possible

By examining how various hosts respond to certain queries‚ ZenMap GUI can distinguish what kind of OS and server exists. 2. Nmap searches its internal database and what ports on the IP’s are listening and matches it to the best known application.
