Researchers conducted an experiment to identify the effects of three different hand sanitizers on the growth of bacteria. The re

searchers grew one type of bacteria in twenty-four identical covered petri dishes. Then, they opened eighteen petri dishes and applied the three hand sanitizers to six petri dishes each. They left the remaining six petri dishes closed as a control group. When the researchers measured the growth of bacteria two days later, the six dishes that had no hand sanitizer showed the least amount of bacterial growth. The researchers concluded that not using any hand sanitizer would lead to the least bacterial growth.
Which statement best explains why the researchers’ conclusion was not justified?
The experiment tested too many variables.
The control group was not treated the same as the experimental group.
The sample size of twenty-four petri dishes is not large enough.
The single type of bacteria is not adequate to make any conclusions.

What role does the cell membrane play in maintaining homeostasis
SVEN [57.7K]



Cellular homeostasis involves maintaining a balance of several factors that make a cell healthy. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that prevents that passage of water and ions. This allows cells to maintain a higher concentration of sodium ions out the outside of the cell.

Olenka [21]

This membrane mimics the plasma membrane that is around animal cells. In order to explore how water moves in and out of a cell, one cell was weighed and then submerged in hypertonic solution. The other egg was weighted and submerged in hypotonic solution. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypertonic solution  would decrease in mass. It was predicted that the egg submerged in hypotonic solution would increase in mass.

Explanation:

The outermost covering of an animal cell is the plasma membrane. It is a selectively permeable membrane that allows only selective molecules to pass through it.

A solution having higher concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called a hypertonic solution.

A solution having lower concentration of solute than the cell cytoplasm is called the  hypotonic solution.

The movement of water molecules from the region of its higher concentration to the region of its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.

A cell placed in hypertonic solution will undergo exosmosis so it will lose water and its mass will decrease.

A cell placed in hypotonic solution  will undergo endosmosis of water  so it will gain water and its mass will increase.
