This is the best model of cell processes of small molecules easily passing between the phospholipids in the cell membrane.

So, the correct option is B.

Semi-permeable indicates that certain materials can pass through the cell membrane. Similar to how small molecules can easily pass between the phospholipids in the cell membrane and the holes in the tea bag that allow smaller particles to pass. The phospholipid membrane found in a cell is semi-permeable and composed of lipid bilayers.

A lipid bilayer and some intrinsic and extrinsic proteins are present in the cell membrane or plasma membrane, in accordance with the fluid-mosaic model. It makes it possible for tiny molecules to move freely across the phospholipids in the cell membrane. Due to its ability to regulate what entered and exited, the tea bag's membrane functioned like a cell membrane.

Why is a sidereal day shorter than a solar day on earth?
Nadusha1986 [10]
The Sidereal Day is 4 minutes shorter than the Mean Solar Day, because the rotation of the Earth on its axis, and the orbiting of the Earth around the Sun, are both counterclockwise, as viewed from above (or north of) the Ecliptic Plane. See planetary retrograde motion for an example of the opposite situation.

The reason that the Solar Day varies around the Mean Solar Day is that the Earth moves at different speeds through its orbit around the Sun. This is in keeping with Kepler's Second Law of Planetary Motion.

Please note that the Mean Solar Day changes over a long period of time, due to the slowing of the rotation of the Earth due to tidal forces exerted on the Earth primarily by the Moon. For example, the Mean Solar Day was about 23 hours about 250 million years ago.

What are the reactants for oxidation reaction?
Alexxx [7]

The reactant that brings about the oxidation is called the oxidising agent, and that reagent is itself reduced by the reducing agent.

Oxidation occurs when a reactant loses electrons during the reaction. Reduction occurs when a reactant gains electrons during the reaction. This often occurs when metals are reacted with acid.

Oxidation is loss of electrons (OIL RIG). Therefore, an oxidising agent takes electrons from that other substance. Therefore, an oxidising agent must gain electrons.

Oxidation happens when an atom loses one or more electrons during a chemical reaction, meaning that its oxidation number increases. This is because the atom loses the negative charge of the electron, which is similar to gaining a positive charge, increasing the oxidation number.

Why is it beneficial for the sex cells made at the end of meiosis to be DIFFERENT from each other?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

if sex cells were identical, there won't be genetics variations and we will just all be identical to our parents. genetic variation allows us to better adapt and survive
