Eric made a physical model of a cell membrane by putting one zip-top plastic bag inside another. He punched some straws through

the plastic so that they led from outside the outer bag to the inside of the inner bag.
Which of the following features of a cell membrane can be seen using Eric's physical model?

Proteins and other molecules can move around within the cell membrane.
A cell membrane is made of two layers.
Some molecules can pass directly through the cell membrane.
Pores and proteins in the cell membrane allow passage through it.

Answer:

A cell membrane is made of two layers.

The cell membrane is composed by a phospholipid bilayer where the interior side is hydrophobic and non-polar, while the outside is hydrophilic and polar

Pores and proteins in the cell membrane allow passage through it.

The pores and proteins in the cell membrane have several functions such as, for example, cell signaling (proteins) and selective transport (pores)

Andreyy89

Answer:

Explanation:Twenty fruit flies are placed in each of four glass tubes. The tubes are sealed. Tubes I and II are partially covered with black paper; Tubes III and IV are not covered. The tubes are placed as shown. Then they are exposed to blue light for five minutes. The number of flies in the uncovered part of each tube is shown in the drawing.

These data show that these flies respond to (respond means move to or away from):

Proteins and nucleic acids both play vital roles in the structure and function of cells. Part A: Describe the monomers that make
Andre45 [30]
A) proteins are made of amino acids ( if you want to describe it more you can talk about the central dogma, dna to mRNA then mRNA to amino acids and amino acids to proteins. and you can talk about the structures of dna, primary secondary tertiary quaternary). nucleic acids are made of nucleotides ( cytosine (C), thymine (T), adenine (A), guanine (G))

Which food molecule (monosaccharide, polysaccharide, lipid, or protein) would you eat if...
torisob [31]
<span>You needed a quick boost of energy - MONOSACCHARIDE

You wanted to grow strong nails, you haven't eaten in days - PROTEIN

You wanted to grow healthy hair - PROTEIN

You had a race tomorrow afternoon - POLYSACCHARIDE 

You were getting ready for hibernation - LIPIDS

You wanted to get bigger muscles - PROTEIN 

Your meal will be in a week - LIPIDS

CARBOHYDRATES include monosaccharide and polysaccharides. They provide immediate energy boost or short term energy storage for animals as well as long term energy storage for plants. 

PROTEIN s</span>peeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy. It is used to form bones and build muscles. It is m<span>ade up of an amino group, a carboxyl group, and an R group.

LIPIDS can be saturated or unsaturated fatty acids. They are not soluble in water however they provide long-term energy storage for animals. </span>

Daniel is studying feeding relationships in a neighborhood pond. He observes several organisms that feed on one another, and he
vichka [17]

So given the suggested food chain of algae-snail-sunfish-heron we can conclude that this food chain is heavily dependent on the process of photosynthesis.

The algae is the only of the organism that are directly dependent of the photosynthesis for their survival, while the snail, sunfish, and heron, and indirectly dependent on it.

Since we are talking about a food chain, in essence it means that all organism are connected through one another. So the algae perform photosynthesis for its own survival, the snail is using the algae is a food source, the snail is later eaten by the sunfish, and the sunfish goes on the menu of the heron.

If the algae, by some scenario, are not able to perform photosynthesis, than they will die off, and if they die off, than the snail will die off because of lack of food, if the snail dies off, along with it dies off the sunfish because of lack of food, and if the sunfish is out of the scene, the heron goes as well.

So we can conclude that the process of photosynthesis is of crucial importance for the survival of all four species, be it directly or indirectly.

When you cross two heterozygotes (aa), the offspring will most likely be __________?
Cerrena [4.2K]
When you cross two heterozygotes with the genotype Aa, the offspring will be:   <span>Parents: Aa  x  Aa</span>
<span>F1 generation: AA  Aa  Aa  aa</span>
<span>This means that ½ of the offspring will be heterozygous, ¼ will be homozygous (dominant) and ¼ will be homozygous (recessive).</span>
