Answer:
-Because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane.
-The diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions.
-The framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center.
The given question says that a student has constructed a model of cellular transport using fences and several gates.
This model can be used to demonstrate the cellular transport.
The gates of the fences can be supposed as the protein pumps and the other fence demonstrates the lipid bilayer.
Let’s suppose in the fence, there are many cattles, and outside, there are less cattles, but the student open the gate and bring more cattles inside the fence. In this case, the transport of the cattles is similar to the active transport of the molecules using protein pumps. At cellular level, the energy for the active transport is provided by ATP molecules.
Now, let’s say, the student wants to feed the cattles with some nutrition rich food, which can help in maintaining the health of the cattles. The student fills his car with the cattle food and he enters inside the fence through gates. In this case, the food was not present in the fence, but was abundant in the outside environment, so, the diffusion would occur. But food cannot come self, without help of others, so, the movement is facilitated by the car, as it is done by the carrier proteins. Hence, it is an example of facilitated diffusion.
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.
Answer:
The correct answer is c. water to move out of the strawberry, making it smaller
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process refers to the movement of liquid molecule from the area of high solute concentration to an area of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane to equalize the osmotic balance.
Osmosis is important for any cell to maintain a proper osmotic balance of the cell. So if sugar is sprinkled on a strawberry the solute concentration outside the strawberry cells will increase which will result in water release from the cell.
This release of water from the cell will shrink the strawberry and make it small. Therefore the correct answer is c.
