The statement that describes the ability of the cell membrane to allow various substance to move through is that the cell membrane is preamble and allows only certain substances to pass through.
Explanation:
The plasma membrane is preamble, hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules diffuse through lipid layer. The integral membrane proteins enable large polar molecules to pass through the membrane.
Some molecules can cross the membrane like hydrocarbons and oxygen. Whereas the large molecules like glucose and sugars cannot cross. The water pass through lipid.
<span>The specific heat of the metal is 0.5 cal/ (0C.g). This means the energy needed is 0.5 cal to raise the heat of 1 gram of metal by 1 degree C. Therefore, the energy needed to raise 100 g of the metal by 20 degrees C is:
0.5 * 20 * 100 = 1000 cal.

During the day, due to the presence of sunlight, the process of photosynthesis peaks over that of respiration. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide to make carbohydrates releasing oxygen as a byproduct. During the night, because there is no sunlight, the rate of photosynthesis drops. This, therefore, causes the rate of respiration to surpasses the rate of photosynthesis. In respiration, oxygen is consumed and carbon dioxide is released.
An area where soil has eroded experience loss of nutrients. The topmost layer of soil is called the topsoil and is the most fertile. Soil erosion results in the loss of soil fertility and makes the land barren
The main cause of soil erosion is the removal of vegetation, which exposes the topsoil to water and wind. Wind and water are the main agents of soil erosion.
Water erosion can be sheet erosion, rill erosion, gully erosion or riparian erosion.
