The process that takes place in the leaf to produce oxygen is photosynthesis. Water is first absorbed through the roots of the plant. CO2 enters the plant through the stomata. Chlorophyll in the leaf traps light from the sun to create sugars and oxygen from water, CO2, & light. Oxygen leaves the leaf going into the air and sugar is stored as starch in the plant for use.

Carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen. This produces light energy. Photosynthesis takes place in leaf cells.

At the boundary of every cell, the __________ functions as a selective barrier that allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrien
Vinil7 [7]
The cell membrane functions as a selective barrier. We call these kind of membranes as differentially permeable or semi permeable membrane. It can decide what substances can pass in and out. Therefore it can surround the cytoplasm (which is the inside of a cell) to separate the cell's content from the surroundings.

2. The vasa recta is a specialized capillary that branches from the ___________ arteriole. The blood flow in the vasa recta runs
lorasvet [3.4K]
<h2>Vasa recta </h2>

Explanation:

The vasa recta is a specialized capillary that branches from the efferent arteriole; The blood flow in the vasa recta runs parallel, but in the opposite direction to the flow of tubular filtrate within the nephron loop

  • The vasa recta capillaries are long, hairpin-shaped blood vessels that run parallel to the loops of Henle
  • The hairpin turns slow the rate of blood flow, which helps maintain the osmotic gradient required for water reabsorption
  • Absorbed water is returned to the circulatory system via the vasa recta, which surrounds the tips of the loops of Henle
  • Because the blood flow through these capillaries is very slow, any solutes that are reabsorbed into the bloodstream have time to diffuse back into the interstitial fluid, which maintains the solute concentration gradient in the medulla; this passive process is known as counter-current exchange

The movement of large molecules through the cell membrane out of the cell is called ______.
xenn [34]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane.
