Answer:
The correct statement concerning the cell membrane lipid molecules is that "energy is not expended during diffusion" (Option d)
Explanation:
Biological membranes are formed by two lipidic layers arranged with their hydrophilic polar heads facing the exterior and the interior of the cells, and their hydrophobic tails against each other. Membranes are fluid, which means that molecules that form it have the capability to move through it.
Lipids can easily change places with other neighbor lipids by <u>lateral diffusion</u> in the same layer. This is passive diffusion, which means that it does not need energy to happen.
Lipids can also diffuse transversally to the other layer, but this kind of movement is not as easy as lateral diffusion.
There are also other lipidic movements as rotational diffusion that imply the rotation of the molecule.
Through this lipidic bilayer, there is also a passive transport of some particles from one side of the cell to the other which happens because of concentration differences.
The answer is C. Population size
Answer:
O Bioenergy does not release harmful greenhouse gasses.
Explanation:
Nuclear energy might not releases as much greenhouse gasses as fossil fuels do but it still releases some. Bioenergy produces energy by using 100% natural elements whereas nuclear energy does not.
Answer: A
Explanation: Diffusion is important to cells because it allows them to gain the useful substances they require to obtain energy and grow, and lets them get rid of waste products. This table shows examples of substances required by cell and associated waste products.
Answer:
the correct answer is: chloroplasts
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are the cellular organelles that in photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms take care of photosynthesis.
The characteristic shared by both algae and seed plants is the presence of chloroplasts. Algae and seed plants both have chloroplasts.
