Each time one organism eats another organism, a transfer of energy occurs.in the form of sugars which an organism breaks down for energy.
The statements that are true of heterogeneous mixtures are: they settle out and the proportions of solute to solvent may vary. The correct answer is option A. 1 and 2. Heterogeneous mixtures are considered mixtures wherein the components are not uniform and still retain their properties. Characteristics of heterogeneous mixtures are: the ratio of solute and solvent is not equal, the substances can be separated physically and they still retain their properties even if mixed with another substance.
Answer: True
Explanation:
<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.
To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).
Answer: Respiration is a process in living organisms involving the production of energy, typically with the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide from the oxidation of complex organic substances.
Hence, respiration helps to maintain a persons health.
