We use cell membranes to treat disease because the cell membrane is one of the main barriers that pathogens need to overcome, hindering their replication.

<h3>What is the cell membrane?</h3>

The cell membrane is a thin lipoprotein film formed by phospholipids and proteins delimiting the cytoplasm of all types of cells. They prevent invading microorganisms from attaching to the cell and replicating.

Then, using the concepts of cell membrane, we can use them to prevent viral diseases from occurring since the virus cannot fix itself to replicate. So in this case, the cell membrane is one of the main barriers that pathogens need to overcome, hindering their replication.

What is the velocity of an object that has a displacement of 100 meters east in a time of 4 seconds?
Sauron [17]
It’s c


Because velocity; just like speed will be distance over time
However on this case it’s displacement over time

Anyway in case ur wondering ,

the only difference between distance and displacement is that displacement requires a direction

so

100m/4s
=25 m/s to the east since the direction is already mentioned in question

If a cell is placed inside a solution that has a higher concentration of solute than on the inside of the cell, what can be said
Zolol [24]
WATER WILL MOVE OUT OF THE CELL CAUSING IT TO SHRIVEL. This is because, the more solute a solution contain, the less its probability of crossing a semi permeable membrane into another compartment, this then result in the net flow of water from the region of lower solute concentration to the region of higher solute concentration. Thus, water will flow out of the cell which has lower solute concentration into the surrounding solution which has higher concentration. The outflow of water will make the cell to shrivel.
