Answer:

The correct answers to the question are:

  • The concentration of solute bathing the inner side of the plant cell membrane should be high.
  • The concentration of solute bathing the outer side of the plant cell membrane should be low.

Explanation:

  • Turgidity can be defined as a condition in which the cell membrane of the plants cells becomes completely extended as a result of which it pushes tightly against the cell wall.
  • This happens when the cell takes up water from its environment and stores it in the vacuoles.
  • Water enters to the inside of the cell by the process of Osmosis.
  • Osmosis can be defined as the process by which molecules tend to move or diffuse from a region where its concentration is high to another region where its concentration is low, provided the two regions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
  • In any region, the concentration of solute and and concentration of solvent  bears an inverse relationship. This means that the region where the solute concentration is high, the solvent concentration is low and where the solute concentration is low, the solvent concentration is high.
  • In the given question, as the cell takes up water from the surrounding into its vacuole to become turgid, so by the concept of osmosis, the concentration of water must have been high outside the cell and low inside the cell.
  • Again by the inverse concentration concept of solute and solvent, the concentration of solute inside the cell should be more than the concentration of solute outside the cell.

The post mortem interval of a body enclosed in a plastic bag could be best estimated by the insects found in the body, in that case forensic science need to listen to what those little creatures have to say, insects could tell if the body has been moved from the crime scene, how long it´s been in an specific place, and how long it´s been since death until found, every group of insects can tell something different, from worms, arachnids to flyes, each one of them has a time to get into the body, so it could tell you for how long it´s been dead.

Adjacent plant cells have narrow channels called plasmodesmata that pass through the cell walls of the connected cells and allow
tatuchka [14]

Answer:1. They allow the movement of molecules from one cell to another, enabling communication between cells.

Explanation:the cell wall is a rigid and cellulose containing wall, which surrounds the plasma membrane.

During lignification, small pores appear on the cell wall through which cytoplasmic strands extend.these pores are the plasmodesmata,which provides connections between plant cells

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Pentanol, glucose and fatty acid.

Explanation:

Pentanol, glucose and fatty acid are the three molecules which are present in  the given model number 1. In the model, there are three different molecular diagrams for each molecule. The first one is ball and stick model, the second one is Lewis structure and the third one is line drawing method. All diagrams for a same molecule is totally different from another.
