Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Cell membrane

Explanation:

Cell membrane or plasma membrane is the outermost layer of the cell of the animal kingdom which is composed of the phospholipids.

The phospholipid layer protects the inner environment of the cell from the outer environment as well as it allows the movement of the solute and water through specialised proteins embedded in the layer.

Since, the proteins of the cell membrane like aquaporin allow the passive movement of the water through osmosis therefore, the damage to the cell membrane will affect the water balance of the cell.

Thus, the cell membrane is the correct answer.

Fluorine, iodine and bromine are all in the same group. Fluorine been the first element in the group has less number of electron orbitals compare with bromine and iodine. Bromine and iodine has D orbitals which can take part in their bonding activities, this allows the elements to bond in a variety of ways, but fluorine does not have the D orbital and therefore is limited in its ion formation. <span />

A stream of water holds thriving bacteria. If drought conditions caused the stream to dry up, how would the bacteria mostly like
Alexeev081 [22]

The answer is they produce endospores.

Explanation:

The endospores are dormant, non-reproductive, tough bacterial spores that ensure the survival of bacteria in adverse conditions.

During the environmental stress, such as starvation, desiccation, radiation and chemical treatment many bacteria form dormant endospores. These endospores germinate again when the conditions become favorable.

Hence, if drought conditions lead the stream to dry up, the bacteria that live there would produce endospores to survive.
