When a potassium ion (K+) moves from the soil into the vacuole of a cell on the surface of a root, itmust pass through several c

ellular structures. Which of the following correctly describes the order inwhich these structures will be encountered by the ion?
A) plasma membrane → primary cell wall → cytoplasm → vacuole
B) secondary cell wall → plasma membrane → primary cell wall → cytoplasm → vacuole
C) primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → vacuole
D) primary cell wall → plasma membrane → lysosome → cytoplasm → vacuole
E) primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → secondary cell wall → vacuole

Answer:

C. primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → vacuole.

Explanation:

Every molecule or particle which enters into a cell, it must pass through several cellular structure at different level means it also depends on the type of molecule like size, shape, and nature (characteristics). On the surface of root cell, potassium ion pass through the primary cell wall which is most outer layer of plant cell, then it passes the second layer called plasma membrane, in the plasma membrane cytoplasm is present and when potassium ion reaches the cytoplasm then it will enter into the vacuole present in cytoplasm.

Answer:

C) primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → vacuole

Explanation:

Structurally from  the soil into the roots, the structure of the root cells is such a way that  k+ enters with water through the primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → vacuole of  the root hairs, and move through apoplastic and sympathic pathways from  the root hairs .

From the root hairs they moved in mass flow in  the xylem vessels. They reentered apoplastic and sympathic pathways again to reach different parts of the plants.

Due to the facts that K+ in the roots cells are of lower water potential,soil water K+  can also move by active transport and facilitated diffusion  from the soil into the (primary cell wall → plasma membrane → cytoplasm → vacuole roots,) and later switch to apoplastic and sympathic pathways to reach plant parts.

2. Fill in the chart on the three types of RNA.
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Function:

mRNA: mRNA can be described serves intermediate molecule between the genetic material and the amino acids for the making of protein.

rRNA: It makes up the ribosomes along with the ribosomal proteins. Ribosomes are the sites where the process of translation occurs.

tRNA: The tRNA is involved in the bringing of the nucleotides to the ribososmes for translation.

Which of the following kinds of cells preform basic functions such as obtaining energy from food?
strojnjashka [21]

Plant cells, but not animal cells

Animal cells, but not plant cells

Both plant cells and animal cells

Neither animal cells nor plant cells

Answer:

Both plant cells and animal cells

Explanation:

The process where the energy locked up in food is extracted take place in both plants and animal cells.This process is called Cellular respiration.It is the process of combining inhaled and diffused oxygen in the blood with assimilated food substances (glucose,amino acids,fatty acids and glycerol) to produce energy.

In both cells it takes place in the the cytoplasm and mitochondrial.

It begins with Glycolysis, followed by Krebs's Cycle..These two steps gives certain of ATPs to these cells

.However,the largest amount of ATPs is synthesized during oxidative phosphorylation  for maximum of energy to be produced.This process involved the chemiosmosis where protons were diffused into the intramembranes by the proton pump (PMF) and diffused back into the matrix of the mitochondria to generate the electrochemical gradients.

The electrochemical gradients generate the energy for enzymes ATPase synthase needed for phosphorylation of ADP with Pi to give ATPs.

The oxygen act act the final electron acceptor.
