Glucose, a small uncharged molecule, can pass through the cell membrane, but sodium ions do not pass through the membrane easily

. What is the most accurate explanation for these findings?1) Cell membranes have carrier proteins for glucose but not for sodium.2) The cell membrane is semi-permeable.3) The membrane potential makes it difficult for sodium ions to diffuse across the membrane.4) The sodium-potassium pump keeps sodium inside the cell.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The movement of glucose across membrane is controlled by carrier proteins that helps in the movement of the glucose molecules.

The movement of ion from a low concentration to a higher concentration results in a decrease in entropy, which requires an input of free energy so ions need channel for their movement and it cannot be transported by membrane proteins as like that of glucose.

hence, glucose is transported across membrane by carrier protein and sodium does not move by this method.

Biological augmentation is a process that _________. answer correct uses organisms to detoxify polluted ecosystems use organisms
nikdorinn [45]
Biological augmentation is a process that uses organisms to add essential materials to a degraded ecosystem. It involves the addition of archaea, or bacteria cultures required to speed up the rate of degradation of a contaminant, this is supplementation application of non-toxic, natural, beneficial microbes, enzymes and minerals to enhance the rate of degradation.

1) Interphase is the longest phase and most of the cells are present in that very stage !!


2) Interphase is the longest phase and Anaphase is the shortest phase !! Interphase is the longest phase as in this phase the cells prepare themselves for dividing and it takes most of the time for gathering energy for division ; in this phase DNA also replicate !!


3)
Interphase: DNA replicates;

Prophase: Nuclear membrane starts disappearing and Centrioles go on opposite poles !! DNA condense to form Chromosome.

Metaphase: Chromosome attach to spindle fibre and starts to move to equitorial plate.

Anaphase: Centromere divide and half the chromatid goes on either pole

Telophase: Nuclear membrane starts to reassemble; Chrmosome goes to normal uncoiled state ; Other organelles starts appearing

Cytokinesis: Cell furrow forms and cell divides into two half.


4) In dividing cell nucleus membrane is absent while in non dividing cell the membrane is intact


5) Tip of the onion root is meristamatic cell which divides but if it is permanent cell ; there would be no division !!
