What is the basic structure of a cell membrane?

Biology
2 answers:
dmitriy555 [2]3 years ago
7 0

The plasma membrane is a fluid mosaic. This means that it is flexible and made up of many different types of molecules. Phospholipids form the basic structure of a cell membrane, called the lipid bilayer. Scattered in the lipid bilayer are cholesterol molecules, which help to keep the membrane fluid consistent.

Naturally occurring solid mixture of one or more minerals and organic matter
alina1380 [7]

The naturally occurring solid mixture of one or more minerals and organic matter is known as a Rock.

A rock is a naturally occurring substances that is a solid mixture of one or more minerals together with organic matter.

<h2>Further Explanation;</h2>
  • Rocks are classified based on the chemical composition, texture and the way they are formed.  One type of rock may change from one form to another through a rock cycle.
  • Rock cycle is the process through each various rocks change from one form to another, normally an interchange between the three major types of rocks.

There are three major classification of rocks:

<h3>Sedimentary rocks </h3>
  • Sedimentary rocks are types of rocks that are formed through accumulation of sediments at low temperatures in tectonic layers and sinks. These sediments includes; pebbles, shells, sand and other material fragments.  
  • The sediments accumulates in layers and then harden into rocks over a period of time.
  • Examples of sedimentary rocks include; limestone and conglomerate
<h3>Metamorphic rocks</h3>
  • These are types of rocks that are formed as a result of changes that occurs due to intense heat and pressure under the surface of the earth. They result from action of heat and pressure on other rocks that pre-existed.
  • These types of rocks are characterized by shiny crystals, ribbon-like layers among other features.
  • Examples of metamorphic rocks are marble and gneiss

<h3>Igneous rocks </h3>
  • These are types of rocks that are formed as a result hardening and cooling of magma from volcanic eruptions. Magma may cool inside the earth or when on the surface of the earth as a result of volcanic eruptions. The lava from this eruptions cools and hardens to form metamorphic rocks.
  • Igneous rocks are glass-like and shiny with no crystals. They may also have tiny spaces and holes due to gas bubbles trapped during the cooling process.
  • Examples of igneous rocks include obsidian and basalt.
  • The three types of rocks may be further classified in terms of chemical composition, texture and formation.

Key words: Rocks, types of rocks, chemical composition

14. Brainstorm and write at least 3 potential challenges or important points to consider when conducting the described
Afina-wow [57]

When conducting an experiment, there are different aspects to consider, such as the question that drives to the reseach, the hypothesis, theoretical framework, variables involved -independent, dependent, and controll-, methodology, study groups, data analisys, among others.    

In the exposed example, Pincky is lacking <em>theoretical framework, d</em><em>efining which are the </em><em>study groups, methodology </em><em>to collect data</em><em>, </em><em>and a description of </em><em>data analysis</em>.

---------------------

The scientific method is a research method that consists of systematic observations, measures, experimentation, analysis, and verification of a hypothesis. It is based on two aspects: <em>reproducibility, </em><em>which is the capability of reproducing the experiment in any other place by any researcher</em>, and <em>refutability, </em><em>which is the susceptibility to be refused.</em>

When conducting an experiment, you need to consider,

• Definition and problem statement. The question for which there is not an answer yet.

• Hypothesis formulation. A hypothesis is a scientific conjecture, not verified, that requires corroboration.

• Data collection and analysis. This step involves testing the observations.

• Results

• Verification of hypothesis. This step involves the deriving of the working hypothesis.

• Discussion and Conclusion.

Previous knowledge about the study object is always required for a better understandig.  A question the investigator wants to answer. The main goal of the study, which is basically what the investigator wants to find out. The researcher makes a hypothesis to predict what is going to happen. The experiment is to be performed to answer the question. The conclusions through which the hypothesis might be rejected or accepted.

--------------

So in this experiment there must be,

Theoretical framework, such as information about the species, life stage at which they begin chirping, about external factors that might affect it or benefit it, and etcetera.

The goal: To know how temperature affects cricket´s chirping

Hypothesis: Crickets chirp less frequently under cold temperature than under warm temperature.

Variables: Temperature → Independent

                 Chirp frequency → Dependent

                 Water and food supply, light exposure, refuge → Controlled

Study groups: group of crickets exposed to a warmer temperature

                        group of crickets exposed to a colder temperature

Methodology: Individuals analyzed should be in the same development stage, or at least be sexually mature. Two groups of 10 individuals each should be placed under the same conditions, excepting for temperature. One of the groups should be exposed to warmer temperatures and the other one to lower temperatures. Chirps should be recorded for a week.

Data analysis: Using the chirps records, the frequency can be measured for each group. Results should be compared using different statistical analyses.

Results: Results should be clearly exposed, using texts, charts, and graphs.

Discussion and Conclusion: Hypothesis acceptance or rejection. Discussion about the expected results against the observed ones.
