Explain how the cell membrane controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell ?

sukhopar [10]

It's called simple diffusion, the small molecules without charges such as oxygen and carbon dioxide can flow through a plasma membrane without assistance and without expending energy. Other substances such as proteins, glucose and charged particles called ions cannot pass through the selectively permeable membrane.

3. Do distilled water conduct electricity? What will happen if we add sugar to it and

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

It cannot conduct electricity, however adding salt or sugar will make the water have impurities/other substance making it easier to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Distilled water by itself does not contain impurities, thus, it cannot <em>conduct </em>electricity.

When you put salt in water, the water molecules pull the sodium and chlorine ions apart so they are floating freely, increasing the conductivity.

Strontium sulfate becomes less soluble in an aqueous solution when sodium sulfator is added because

horsena [70]

Answer:

The addition of sulfate ions shifts equilibrium to the left.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the following ionization of strontium sulfate:

$SrSO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons Sr^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

It is evidenced that when sodium sulfate is added, sulfate, $SO_4^{2+}$ is actually added in to the solution, which causes the equilibrium to shift leftwards according to the Le Ch athelier's principle. Thus, the answer in this case would be:

The addition of sulfate ions shifts equilibrium to the left.

Best regards!

Cytoplasm is a mixture of what two things?

alexira [117]

In cell biology, the cytoplasm is the material or protoplasm within a living cell, excluding the cell nucleus. It comprises cytosol (the gel-like substance enclosed within the cell membrane) and the organelles – the cell's internal sub-structures. All of the contents of the cells of prokaryote organisms (such as bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus) are contained within the cytoplasm. Within the cells of eukaryote organisms the contents of the cell nucleus are separated from the cytoplasm, and are then called thenucleoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless.[1]

It is within the cytoplasm that most cellular activities occur, such as many metabolic pathways including glycolysis, and processes such as cell division. The concentrated inner area is called the endoplasm and the outer layer is called the cell cortex or theectoplasm.

Movement of calcium ions in and out of the cytoplasm is a signaling activity for metabolic processes.[2]

In plants, movement of the cytoplasm around vacuoles is known as cytoplasmic streaming.

Omg GUYS I NEED HELPPP

27) Partial pressure of oxygen: 57.8 kPa

29) Final volume: 80 mL

30) Final volume: 8987 L

31) Due to property of water of being polar, ice floats on water

Explanation:

27)

In a mixture of gases, the total pressure of the mixture is the sum of the partial pressures:

$p_T = p_1 + p_2 + ... + p_N$

In this problem, the mixture contains 3 gases (helium, carbon dioxide and oxygen). We know that the total pressure is

$p_T=201.4 kPa$

We also know the partial pressures of helium and carbon dioxide:

$P_{He}=125.4 kPa\\P_{CO_2}=18.2 kPa$

The total pressure can be written as

$p_T=p_{He}+p_{CO_2}+p_{O_2}$

where $p_{O_2}$ is the partial pressure of oxygen. Therefore, we find

$p_{O_2}=p_T-p_{He}-p_{CO_2}=201.4-125.4-18.2=57.8 kPa$

29)

Assuming that the pressure of the gas is constant, we can apply Charle's law, which states that:

"For an ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically,

$\frac{V}{T}=const.$

where

V is the volume of the gas

T is the Kelvin temperature

We can re-write it as

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

Here we have:

$V_1 = 42 mL$ (initial volume)

$T_1=-89^{\circ}C+273=184 K$ is the initial temperature

$T_2=77^{\circ}C+273=350 K$ is the final temperature

Solving for V2, we find the final volume:

$V_2=\frac{V_1 T_2}{T_1}=\frac{(42)(350)}{184}=80 mL$

30)

For this problem, we can use the equation of state for ideal gases, which can be written as

$\frac{p_1 V_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}$

where in this problem:

$p_1 = 102.3 kPa$ is the initial pressure

$V_1=1975 L$ is the initial volume

$T_1=25^{\circ}C+273=298 K$ is the initial temperature

$p_2=21.5 kPa$ is the final pressure

$T_2=12^{\circ}C+273=285 K$ is the final temperature

And solving for V2, we find the final volume of the balloon:

$V_2=\frac{p_1 V_1 T_2}{p_2 T_1}=\frac{(102.3)(1975)(285)}{(21.5)(298)}=8987 L$

31)

A molecule of water consists of two atoms hydrogen bond with an atom of oxygen ( $H_2 O$ ) in a covalent bond.

While the molecul of water is overall neutral, due to the higher electronegativity of the oxygen atom, electrons are slightly shifted towards the oxygen atom; as a result, there is a slightly positive charge on the hydrogen side, and a slightly negative charge on the oxygen side (so, the molecules is said to be polar).

As a consequence, molecules of water attract each other, forming the so-called "hydrogen bonds".

One direct consequence of the polarity of water is that ice floats on liquid water.

Normally, for every substance on Earth, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state. However, this is not true for water, because ice is less dense than liquid water.

This is due to the polarity of water. In fact, when the temperature of water is decreased to freezing point and water becomes ice, the hydrogen bondings "force" the molecules to arrange in a lattice structure, so that the molecules become more spaced when they turn into solid state. As a result, ice occupies more volume than water, and therefore it is less dense, being able to float on water.
