Biology
1 answer:
adoni [48]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B, C, Dand E are all correct

Explanation:

Why B is correct- The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is a double layer of lipids and proteins that surrounds a cell and separates the cytoplasm (the contents of the cell) from its surrounding environment. It is selectively permeable, which means that it only lets certain molecules enter and exit.

Plants, animals, and bacteria have a cell membrane. Why d is correcect

Why C is correct- The cell membrane is not a solid structure. It is made of millions of smaller molecules that create a flexible and porous container. Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure.

Why E is correct- The plasma membrane is primarily composed of phospholipids arranged in a bilayer, with the hydrophobic tails on the interior of the membrane, and the hydrophilic heads pointing outwards

Why A Is Not correct- It is very fragile and its role is to hold the cell together and to help control what substances can get in and out. It is partially permeable, allowing only some substances to pass through it. The membrane has a complex structure consisting of a phospholipid bi-layer and different types of proteins.

Is it possible for an inverted energy pyramid to exist explain why or why not?
Kay [80]
No i don't think so; this is because in a particular energy pyramid, no additional energy enters the system, and energy is lost to the environment at energy level. An energy pyramid is the pyramid that shows the availability of energy that connects the consumers with the decomposers shows the energy transfer between trophic levels. It shows that less and less food and energy is available as you go from the base to the top of the pyramid.
