The rheo leaf peel will lose water by osmosis and become flaccid. If the rheo leaf was boiled, this would not happen.

<h3>What is osmosis?</h3>

Across living membranes, water moves from a region of high to a region of low water potential.

Concentrated sugar solutions have low water potential when compared to the cell sap of the cells of rheo leaf peel. Thus, water will move from the rheo leaf peel to the sugar solution.

This will result in the wilting of the leaf peel.

If the leaf peel is boiled, the membranes in the cells die and can no longer function as a selectively permeable interface.

In order for matter or energy to be conserved, one must have a ____ system.
Leya [2.2K]
Closed system.  If the system is not closed, matter or energy can escape from the system.  an example of this is if you react magnesium and hydrochloric acid in a open system.  The H₂ gas is going to escape making it look like some of the mass disappeared .  in that same reaction some in an open system will also loose heat to the surrounding which will make it look like less heat was produced.

The image below shows two nitrogen atoms. For these two atoms to form a stable molecule, N2, how many electrons would have to be
maxonik [38]
There are six electrons in the covalent bonds.

Two N atoms would be :N:· + ·:N:
An N₂ molecule would be :N:::N: or :N≡N:
This gives each N atom an octet of eight electrons in its valence shell.
