<u>Answer:</u>

The process of "Osmosis" is modeled in the plant cell diagrams seen here.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Osmosis is the natural gross migration of solvent particles into a zone of higher solute concentration via a selectively permeable membrane, in the path that seeks to balance the amounts of solvents on both the ends. Osmosis as biological membranes are semipermeable, is a critical mechanism in biological systems.

Such membranes are usually impenetrable to massive and polar molecules like polysaccharides, ions and proteins while being porous to hydrophobic or non-polar molecules like lipids and to small molecules as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitric oxides and nitrogen.

A newborn baby dies soon after birth because her diaphragm and rib cage muscles failed to contract and she was unable to breathe
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Troponin

Explanation:

This is a complex of three proteins  (Trop C, I, T) that are responsible for muscle contraction of  the skeletal and cardiac  muscles . its binds with protein tropomysin  to lie in the grove between the actin filaments.  its prevents contraction by blocking  myosin crossbridge  in a relax muscles.Inorder to aid contractions  calcium ions binds with troponin, which leads to confrontational change.This exposes myosin on actin filaments,  leading to formation of crossbridge and therefore contraction of muscles.

Therefore if there is  a mutation in the gene that encoded Troponin, as explained above, calcium ion  will not be able to bind with tropinin, and there will be no exposure of myosin on actin filaments, no binding of  myosin on actin to cause crossbridge, and consequently no  muscle contraction,

Thus the intercoastal  muscle and diaphragm will not contract leading to death of the baby.

2. Name a microbe that lacks a cell wall and would find hypotonic environments detrimental.
Alina [70]

Answer:

I so I am also a bit confused, but I hope this could answer your question!

Explanation:

The bacteria possess a cell wall composed of peptidoglycan molecule formed by the amino acids called murine.  The bacterial cell wall helps in the survival of the bacteria in some extreme condition like when placed in a hypotonic solution.

The hypotonic solution is formed when it has low solute concentration and high water amount when compared. When the bacterial cell will be placed in hypotonic solution then the water will move inside the cell down the concentration gradient as a result of which the bacterial cell will swell but will not burst.

This happens as the cell wall contains expansin protein which allows the cell wall to expand and provides rigidity to the cell.
