Answer: Cellulose

Cellulose is referred as insoluble fiber on food packages. Insoluble fiber lacks solubility in water but have passive water-attracting properties that augment to increase bulk and moisture of the stool. The water-holding quality of cellulose shorten the transit time of food to pass through the stomach and intestinal tract. Moreover, cellulose is mostly made up from the structural component of cell walls in green plants and vegetables.

The majority of water molecules moving across plasma membranes by osmosis do so via a process that is most similar to ____. hint
goldfiish [28.3K]

The majority of water molecules moving across plasma membranes by osmosis do so via a process that is most similar to simple diffusion. The process of osmosis involves the moment of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane like the cell membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration. This process is similar to the process of simple diffusion where the solute particles move across in a similar fashion.

guapka [62]

Answer:

Effect of independent variable is studied on the dependent variable or subject of the experiment.

Explanation:

The independent variables are very important in an experiment. Basically the affect of an independent variable is studied on the subject or dependent variable.

Thus, it can be said that independent variable will produce the effect on the dependent variable.

Here in this case the different types of disinfectants are the independent variable and their effect will be  observed on the bacteria (subject or dependent variable)

why does the presence of 22 large herbivore species at Mpala seem to contradict the competitive exclusion principle Dr. Pringle
stealth61 [152]

Dr. Pringle suggests that there's only very few large herbivorous species that can survive in certain area. The reason behind his claim is that according to him there will be only enough food for few large species, so there's natural limitations in the food sources, as there should be enough to support them in order for them to survive.

On the other hand, in Mpala, there's 22 large herbivorous species, which directly contradicts Dr. Pringle's hypothesis. The reason why so many large species of herbivores an survive in Mpala and always have enough food for all of them, is that they have all specialized in eating certain types of plants or parts of plants, thus they are not direct competition to one another, and there's always enough food for all of them.
