Cell membrane of a cell is responsible for the substances that goes in and out of the cell’s cytoplasm and organelles. It is transports different materials externally to internally and vice-verse. Hence the cell membrane is like <span><span>1.   </span>The wall, window and door of a house.</span> <span><span>2.   </span>The security guard of a certain bank</span> <span><span>3.   </span>Or the military sector of a country.</span> Like these three real-life examples, they regulate and control the flow of certain entities from outside to inside and vice-versa.

Equilibrium is when the concentration is the same throughout an entire system. Explain how a cell reaches equilibrium in all thr
pantera1 [17]

It is pertinent to understand what hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solution means before setting out to explain how a cell reaches equilibrium in each type of solution.

  • A hypertonic solution is one whose solute concentration is higher than that of the sap of a cell that is immersed in it.
  • A hypotonic solution is one with the same solute concentration as that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.
  • An isotonic solution has a lower solute concentration than that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.

In biological systems, water molecules move by osmosis from the region of higher water potential or lower concentration of solutes to the region of lower water potential or higher concentration of solute. An equilibrium is reached when there is no net movement of water between two sides. Hence;

  • A cell placed in a hypertonic solution will lose water to the surrounding solution until an equilibrium is reached. This means that such a cell will end up shrinking (wilting) or even dying due to loss of water from the cell sap.
  • A cell placed in a hypotonic solution will gain water from the surrounding solution until there is no net movement of water anymore. Such a cell might become turgid or even burst out its cell content.
  • A cell placed in an isotonic solution will neither gain nor lose water because the cell sap and the surrounding solution have equal solute concentrations.

Many plants can reproduce sexually and asexually because _____.
lbvjy [14]
The answer is A. Environmental conditions are not always right to produce flowers and seeds for sexual reproduction.

Most plants are able to reproduce either way because even if the conditions aren't right for the plant, it can still make more flowers so it doesn't die out.

I hope this helps! :D

Why does the liver accumulate blood after death of animal​
Brrunno [24]
It is a settling of the blood in the lower, or dependent, portion of the body postmortem, causing a purplish red discoloration of the skin. When the heart stops functioning and is no longer agitating the blood, heavy red blood cells sink through the serum by action of gravity.
