How does the cell wall contributes towards maintaining homeostasis in the cell​
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The water wants to flow from the higher concentration, which is outside of the cell, to the lower concentration, which is inside of the cell. The cell membrane helps to regulate and slow down the flow of water into the cell. This is yet another way that the cell membrane helps maintain homeostasis.

I hope it helps ❤️

If purple flower color is dominant in pea plants, a cross between P generation purple and white plants will result ina. all purp
matrenka [14]

Answer:

a. all purple flowers in the F1 generation.

Explanation:

According to the given information, the allele for purple flower color (lets assume P) is dominant over while the allele of flower color (p). When two pure breeding purple (PP) and white flowered (pp) plants are crossed, the F1 would have all "purple flowered progeny with genotype Pp".

According to the Mendel's law of dominance, the hybrid genotype exhibits the dominant phenotype. Here, the allele "P" is dominant over allele "p". Hence, the genotype "Pp" would exhibit purple flower color and all the F1 progeny would have purple flowers.

Oceans and seas can act as a heat reservoir to regulate climates. They can absorb great quantities of heat in the summer, with v
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The high specific heat of water caused by hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a substance is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of that substance by one degree Celsius (1° C).

Due to the hydrogen bonding present in water, water has a high specific heat capacity of 4184 Joules per kilogram. This means that, water has to absorb 4,184 Joules of heat for the temperature of one kilogram of water to increase 1°C. When compared to other substances such as metals, this is very high. For example, the specific heat capacity of copper is 385  Joules per kilogram which means that it only takes 385 Joules of heat to raise 1 kilogram of copper 1°C.

Therefore water, can absorb a large quantity of heat with very little changes in its temperature. This property of water helps the oceans and seas to serve as heat reservoirs by absorbing a large quantity of heat in hotter seasons and releasing these heat in colder seasons.
