Is the following statement true or false? Explain your

Biology
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made of the lipids and proteins with the attached moieties of carbohydrates. The plasma membrane is the selectively permeable membrane that allows the diffusion of some selected particles only.

The transport along the cell membrane depends on the size and the hydrophobicity of the molecule. The size of oxygen is although higher than magnesium but to its highly hydrophobic nature it can easily pass through the plasma membrane as compared with the magnesium. The oxygen diffuses out faster than magnesium.

Thus, the answer is false.

Mitosis, a stage in the cell cycle, is important for what reason?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

A. division of the nucleus

Explanation:

Mitosis is a biological process that the cells of all organisms go through in order to replicate and reproduce. It is part of the cell cycle, which is made up of G1, S, G2, and M (mitosis). In G1, the cell is growing; in S, the DNA of the cell is synthesized, or replicated, so we know choice C is wrong; in G2, the cell is being prepared for mitosis; and finally, in M, the cell actually undergoes cell division.

So, we are looking for an answer choice that involves division: either A or D.

At the end of mitosis, there's an additional process called cytokinesis that actually divides the cytoplasm, so the answer can't be D.

Thus, the answer is A.

Explain how organisms changes within an environment affect their survival. Specifically discuss the effects of a gene mutation f
maw [93]
<span>Animals gradually adapt to changes within their environment over time. This gives them a better chance of surviving rather than going extinct because of the change. Say there is a gene mutation affecting color within a population of beetles in a rain-forest. All of the beetles used to be red, but now a few of them have experienced a gene mutation and are green. Because they live in a rain-forest, it is likely that the green beetles would blend in with their surroundings far better than the original red beetles, and those red beetles would be wiped out by predators because they are easier to spot. The green beetles would live on and flourish, and their population would increase. Soon there would be few or none red beetles, and many green beetles.</span>
