An ice cube, a glass of cold water, and a swimming pool are each exposed to the samme amount of sunlight on a hot day. after fiv

e minutes, the ice cube is melted and the cold drink is two degrees warmer, but the temperature of the swimming pool remains unchanged. what is the best explanation for these observations?
A. the ice cube has a higher heat capacity than the glass of water and the pool
B.the ice cube has a lower heat capacity than the glass of water and the pool
C. the ice cube and the glass of water have higher heat capacities than the swimming pool

B, I think, because by saying that the ice cube has a lower heat capacity means that it cannot stead heat enough to last longer then the water and pool.

Answer:

<h2>C. placing carrier proteins in the membrane.</h2>

Explanation:

If there is no barrier preventing molecules from moving molecules, then there will be large movement of molecules  from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This passive process is known as diffusion. The phospholipid bilayer of a cell's membrane works as a barrier to large molecules, ions, and most hydrophilic molecules. Whereas small hydrophobic molecules can pass freely through the phospholipid bilayer, other molecules and ions are transported across the cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. Some transport proteins, allowing hydrophilic molecules and ions to passively move through them and across the cell membrane.

Examples: carrier proteins and channel proteins.

Placing carrier proteins in the cell membrane will allow the molecule to reach equal concentrations on the both the sides of the membrane and maintain that way over long time. In contrast, transport proteins known as pumps will use cellular energy, usually in the form of ATP, to transport molecules.

Placing equal numbers of intracellularly directed and extracellularly directed pumps would also equalize the concentrations of a molecule long over time. Pumps are to transport molecules against their concentration gradient, such as the sodium-potassium pump continuously moves sodium ions out of a cell.  

Through the use of carrier proteins, there is equalization of  concentrations of a hydrophilic molecule. This equalize the numbers of molecules on the inside and outside of the cell, but the pumps would continue moving the molecule inward, eventually resulting in more molecules inside of the cell than out.

Why are fats considered as high energy compounds?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

1. Fats contain mostly C-H bonds, it has less oxygen therefore making it a high energy compound

2. mRNA plays a vital role in protein synthesis. It's a single stranded RNA molecule that contains genetic information that can be taken outside the nucleus (unlike DNA which cannot leave the nucleus). Its created during transcrption, and is used during translation to create proteins
