A cell wall is a permeable layer found in plant cells which acts as a membrane through which water molecules can pass through while animal cells do not have cell walls.. they just have a cell membrane which is selectively permeable to some chemicals or substances.. water does not move from the region of higher to lower concentration in animal cells

In short, plant cells have cell walls that allow osmosis while animal cells do not have cell walls for osmosis to take place

hope it helps you :)

Instead in our hands... something else happens rills or groove shaped lines are formed in our fingers.. it is an adaptation for our body to provide for some friction in water...

In the absence of oxygen, what is the net gain of ATP for each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis?
Naily [24]

Answer:

2 molecules of ATP

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the anaerobic process (no oxygen required) used in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy. It occurs in the cytoplasm of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It is the first step of cellular respiration.

Glycolysis is subdivided into two phases: the first phase uses energy (ATP), while the second phase produces it together with pyruvate and NADH.

Two molecules of ATP are required for the first stage of glycolysis, while 4 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules are formed in the second stage.

12 If pressure is applied to a rock until its volume is
mote1985 [20]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is option 2

If pressure is applied to a rock until it's volume is reduced by one half how the new density compares to it's original density is ; THE NEW DENSITY IS TWICE IT'S ORIGINAL DENSITY.

Explanation: Density is defined as mass divided by volume,density increases with pressure and it's determined by spaces between atoms in the object being measured.

Density is directly proportional to Pressure,so when pressure increases, Density increases and when pressure decreases,density decreases.

Density is indirectly or inversely proportional to temperature. so when pressure and density increases, temperature remains constant.

This is applicable to the scenerio with the rock in the question,as the pressure on the rock is increasing,the density is increasing too.

A group of rabbits lives in an area that normally has mild winters that are not too cold. This
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

A. Extra thick fur

Explanation:

Because the winter is cold and little body fat and a dark colored fur will get it killed faster, but long ears can help the bunny hear the danger but I don't think there will be any predetors out in the harsh snow.
