Answer:

The actual velocity of the canoe is 17 mi/hr in downward direction.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of canoe, $v_c=5\ mi/hr$ (downstream)

Velocity of stream, $v_s=12\ mi/hr$

We need to find the actual velocity of the canoe. Let it is equal to v. As it is clear that both velocities are in same direction. So, the actual velocity of the canoe is given by the sum of velocity of canoe and the stream.

$v=v_c+v_s$

$v=5+12$

v = 17 mi/hr

Since, the velocity is positive. It means it is in downstream direction. So, the correct option is (d) "17 mi/hr, downstream".

Label the parts of a cell membrane with the term that describes each part.

iren [92.7K]

The basic structure of a cell membrane is in three parts; the internal membrane surface, the external membrane surface and the intervening phospholipid material. This intervening material is impermeable to ions and polar molecules and it prevents polar solutes likie amino acids from moving across the membrane but permits the passive diffusion of hydrophobic molecules.. The external and internal cell membranes are selectively permeable and can regulate what comes into or goes out of the cell and in so doing allows for the transport of materials needed for survival.
