By controlling what enters and leaves a cell, the cell membrane A) aids in maintaining homeostasis within the cell.

By controlling what enters and leaves a cell, the cell membrane A) aids in maintaining homeostasis within the cell. Homeostasis is the process by which organisms maintain life through eating, growing, and living in variable conditions. It would not make sense to answer B) because organisms do not control the homeostasis of their external environment. D) also would not be correct because cell's do not control osmosis in the external environment. The membrane does not control osmosis because osmosis is generally a random process of molecular diffusion whereas the membrane acts in a conscious and controlled way.

Why is freckles not X linked dominant trait
forsale [732]

Answer:

The presence of freckles in a individual, or predisposition to have them, is a trait that is inherited with an autosomal dominant pattern, and is not related to sex-linked inheritance.

Explanation:

Freckles are accumulations of melanin in the skin, which form small reddish or light brown spots, predominantly in white-skinned people.

<u> The melanocortin receptor gene</u> undergoes a change that gives rise to a variant - which is phenotypically expressed in the presence of freckles - whose inheritance has been determined to be autosomal dominant.

<u>Under no circumstances is the transmission of the gene that determines the presence of freckles linked to sex</u>, because is an autosomal trait, as is hair, eye or skin color.

4. Inflorescence

Explanation:

1. Night blindness is odd among haemophilia, colour blindness, thalassaemia because night blindness is not an inheriditary disorder while other three are inheriditary diorder.

2. Ovule is odd among gene, chromosome, allele, ovule because ovule develops into a seed when fertilized and is not a part of genetic material DNA while the other three are part of genetic material.

3. Oxidation is odd among diffusion, imbibition, and osmosis because other belongs to the method of conduction of water and minerals by plants.

4. Inflorescence is odd among seed shape, seed colour and flower position because inflorescence is a group pf flower is flower axis while other belongs to a characteristic of a single or individual flower.

Hence, the correct answer is:

1. night blindness

2. Ovule

3. Oxidation

4. Inflorescence

Describe how the plasma membrane controls what goes into and comes out of a cell
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The cell membrane controls what goes in and out by having protein channels that act like funnels in some cases and pumps in other cases. Passive transport does not require energy molecules and happens when a funnel opens in the membrane, letting molecules flow through.

Why do the tropics get more rainfall than other places on earth?
Mars2501 [29]

They have a greater amount of solar energy, which produces more evaporation than higher latitudes. That warm air rises and eventually condenses into clouds and thunderstorms.
