The statement that describes the ability of the cell membrane to allow various substance to move through is that the cell membrane is preamble and allows only certain substances to pass through.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is preamble, hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules diffuse through lipid layer. The integral membrane proteins enable large polar molecules to pass through the membrane.

Some molecules can cross the membrane like hydrocarbons and oxygen. Whereas the large molecules like glucose and sugars cannot cross. The water pass through lipid.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

characterized by presence or absence of antigens

the blood types are A, B, O, AB

Explanation:

There are two antigens and two antibodies that are mostly responsible for the ABO types.  The specific combination of these four components determines an individual's type in most cases. Erythrocytes and serum were related to the presence of antigens on these erythrocytes and antibodies in the serum. these antigens  are A and B, and depending upon which antigen the erythrocytes express, blood either belonged to blood group A or blood group B. A third blood group contained erythrocytes that reacted as if they lacked the properties of A and B, and this group was later called "O" blood group. The fourth blood group AB, was added to the ABO blood group system. These erythrocytes expressed both A and B antigens.

Blood group   Antigen present on RBC    Antibodies in serum    Genotype(s)

      A                        antigen A                             anti-B                     AA or AO

      B                        antigen B                             anti-A                     BB or BO

      AB              both A and B antigen                 none                         AB

      O                           none                           anti-A and anti-B           OO

This image shows the various forces acting on a block of rock situated on a rock slope. What does arrow 4 represent?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

4 is gravitational force

Option B

Explanation:

This is a force diagram of a block on an inclined plane.

The force component is what makes up weight in the diagram. Weight is given as mass multiplied by the gravity.

Gravitational force acts downward and it is the force of attraction between all objects and the earth. It is directly proportional to mass.

Force 1 and 2 are both shear forces that acts parallel to the face of the incline. They are mostly expressed as frictional forces.
