Well I'm not exactly certain where the teacher is going with this, but an often used example is red blood cells (RBCs) aka: erythrocytes.
RBCs are suspended in blood plasma as they flood through vessels around and around the body, so the osmolarity (amount of small particles that affect osmosis) must remain relatively constant. This is termed "isotonic", meaning the same amount of osmosis-influencing particles that are there inside the RBCs' cytosol, within their plasma membranes.
If the plasma osmolarity get too high, called hypertonic (as with extra salt particles) then water inside the RBCs will have an osmotic force driving it out of the cells' membranes, to flow where there are more salt particles. This will lead to cell shrinkage (called "crenation").
Counter to that, if the plasma osmolarity gets too low, as due to low plasma salt with excessive water intake (for example from the condition "water intoxication"), then the plasma will be hypotonic with respect to the intracellular cytosol concentration. This can result in water rushing into the RBCs' membranes via osmosis, causing the cells to swell from discs into spheres (balls), or even rupture and burst (a phenomenon called "hemolysis").
HOPE THOSE EXAMPLES HELP!!
Answer:
c) A protein
Explanation:
The molecule that results from translation is protein -- or more precisely, translation produces short sequences of amino acids called peptides that get stitched together and become proteins. During translation, little protein factories called ribosomes read the messenger RNA sequences
The answer is true, I will copy and paste what google said for an explanation
Answer: A. cooled and hardened lava from volcanoes
C. sediments deposited by rivers and ocean currents
An accretion is a process in which new materials are added to a tectonic plate or landmass. This process causes the enlargement of the landmass. The materials being added includes sediments, lava from volcanic eruptions and other materials from other sources.
The process of accretion can enlarge the size of a continent along its edge. The new land comes from the cooled and hardened lava from volcanoes and other reason is sediments deposited by rivers and ocean currents.
Answer:
Tartar.
Explanation:
Dental plaque may be defined as the development of mass or biofilm of bacteria that grows on teeth surface. This plaque may present on teeth, between the teeth and on teeth front.
The plaque is first colorless but when it changes to dental calculus or tartar, the color of plaque becomes yellow or pale brown. This causes dental problem and different dental disease.
Thus, the answer is plaque.
