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.

Strike441 [17]
A therapist seeing Cheri would attribute her anger to biological factors.
Her angry outbursts happen because of a malfunction in her body. Because her thyroid gland is overactive, this leads to her being angry from time to time if she doesn't take her medicine. Thus, these can only be biological factors, not social or psychological.

During cellular respiration, most ATP is formed as a direct result of the net movement of
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

protons against a concentration gradient.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be defined as a series of metabolic reactions that typically occur in cells so as to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). During cellular respiration, high energy intermediates are created that can then be oxidized to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Therefore, the intermediary products are produced at the glycolysis and citric acid cycle stage.

<em>Hence, during cellular respiration, most adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is formed as a direct result of the net movement of protons against a concentration gradient in the electron transport chain.</em>

Additionally, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.
