A red blood cell is placed into a sugar water solution. The red blood cell has a lower concentration of protein and sugar than t

he outside solution, as shown in the diagram. In the diagram, the volume of the cell is equal to the volume outside the cell. Protein and sugar are both too big to move through this cell's membrane.

Answer:

remember that it will go from areas of low, to areas of high concentration based on the gradient. So if the RBC has a lower amount of sugar and protein than the concentration outside of this cell, the cell will shrink due to the sugar and protein leaving.

I hope this is an answer you are looking for

Becuase the cell has a lower concentration that the solution it is placed in, the solution is considered hypertonic. The cell will lose water through osmosis and will shrink, the 2nd option is correct.

What makes carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids different​
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Carbohydrates consist of single-sugar units called monosaccharides, double-monosaccharide units known as disaccharides and multiple-monosaccharide molecules that make up starches. The predominant purpose of the carbohydrates you eat is to provide fuel to your cells. Disaccharides and starches undergo digestion to reduce them to their individual sugars, and, once absorbed, they travel to the cells and tissues throughout your body to power your physical activities. Proteins consist of 20 different amino acids, mixed and matched to create a vast array of larger molecules that support every process in your body. Digestion of protein results in a pool of single amino acids that your cells incorporate into new proteins as the need arises in your body. These molecules make up muscles and organs, transmit signals between cells, constitute immune molecules, help create the new proteins your tissues require and can serve as a fuel source in a pinch. Your cells contain two types of nucleic acids, ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid, or RNA and DNA, respectively. They differ from the other macronutrients in that they are not a source of calories in your diet, and their role is strictly to direct the synthesis of new protein molecules. Made up of units called nucleotides, the nucleic acid DNA contains the genetic blueprint that influences your personal characteristics, while the nucleic acid RNA pulls together amino acids to form new proteins as your cells need them.

Answer:

The role of carbon in biological systems is to allow the formation of organic molecules, in addition to providing energy for living beings.

Explanation:

Carbon is the fourth most abundant element on earth and one of the main elements of the viological systems, and its presence is essential for life on the planet to be maintained.

Carbon is necessary for all living beings, without exception. This is because it is used in the construction of organic molecules without which no living thing can survive, in addition to providing energy when it participates in sugar molecules, such as carbohydrates.

Biological and environmental influences that are similar for individuals in a particular age group, regardless of where they are
Flauer [41]

Answer:

age-graded

Explanation:

Age-graded influences are biological and environmental events that influence the dynamic interaction between an individual and their environment at certain ages of the individual’s course of life. They are events that are expected to occur in a particular setting based on chronological age. For example, depending on the cultural settings of an individual, an individual is expected to graduate high school at a certain age, or get married at a certain age. Another example is puberty and menopause which are biological influences that are age-graded.

A human RBC is approximately 6 µm in diameter. An unknown bacterium measures 1 ocular space using the oil immersion objective co
butalik [34]

Answer:

The following is the formula to determine the size from minor spaces and ocular spaces on the stage micrometer:  

Size = Number of minor spaces * 10 micrometer / Number of ocular spaces

A = Number of minor spaces is 2 and the number of ocular space is 1,

Size = 2 * 10 / 1 = 20 micro micrometer. Thus, the size of a bacterium is 20 micrometers.  

B = Thus, it can be said that the size of the bacterium is almost 4 times bigger in comparison to a human red blood cell, which is 6 micrometers in diameter.
