What would happen of the cell membrane were not selectively permeable

Biology
1 answer:
grandymaker [24]3 years ago
4 0
If the cell membrane were not selectively permeable, then unwanted substances would transfer through instead of being blocked out. Think of it like this: you have a sifter with various sizes of spice in it. You only want the finer grains of spice in your food, so when you shake the sifter, the larger pieces of spice don't fit through the small holes that only allow fine grains. Then you are left with the small spices in your food and the large ones stuck in the sifter.
Hopefully this helps and I wasn't too confusing :)

devlian [24]

Answer: All of them seem to apply.

Explanation:

A., Its important to know if your car that is being collided is a small car or big truck, as they will end up effecting who gets hurt the most.

B., Same thing as A. but with the other vehicle.

C., The velocity matters a lot with a collision, since a slow crash won't have as much damage as a car going fast and hitting someone. Also it won't be as likely to be fatal if the car crashing into you is going slow.

D., This is the only one I'm not too sure on, but it seems like how fast the car can accelerate once collided with would be a big factor on whether it would come to a halt or skid across the road.
