Your lab group is experimenting with the diffusion of molecules across a membrane. Dialysis tubing is used as a model cell membr

ane because is it semi-permeable, allowing small molecules to cross the membrane, but NOT larger molecules, like starch. A starch solution is placed in the dialysis tubing and then the dialysis tubing is placed in an iodine and water solution. Iodine is used as an indicator for the presence of starch. Normally, iodine is a yellow-brown color (on the left), but in the presence of starch, it turns a deep purple (right). After observing the experimental setup for 20 minutes, the iodine solution remains brown, but the starch solution inside the dialysis tubing is purple and swollen. What CANNOT be concluded from the results? A) Iodine is a small molecule and diffused through the dialysis tubing INTO the starch solution. B) Starch is a large molecule and could NOT diffuse through the dialysis tubing into the iodine solution. C) Starch requires ATP energy for transport and therefore cannot cross the dialysis tubing into the iodine solution. Eliminate D) The starch solution is hypertonic to the iodine solution, causing water to move across the dialysis tubing INTO the starch solution.

Answer:

D- Starch crosses the cell membrane at E.

Explanation:

E is a membrane protein that can be used for facilitated diffusion, in which large or charged molecules can move across the cell membrane. Facilitated diffusion is passive transport, meaning molecules diffuse from high to low concentration, without the need for ATP energy, using a transport protein. Only small, nonpolar molecules can diffuse through the phospholipid bilayer directly.

Three factors that may have caused thirteen different species of finches to develop on the galapagos island
Oduvanchick [21]
From this one migrant species would come many -- at least 13 species of finch evolving from the single ancestor.
This process in which one species gives rise to multiple species that exploit different niches is called adaptive radiation. The ecological niches exert the selection pressures that push the populations in various directions. On various islands, finch species have become adapted for different diets: seeds, insects, flowers, the blood of seabirds, and leaves.
The ancestral finch was a ground-dwelling, seed-eating finch. After the burst of speciation in the Galapagos, a total of 14 species would exist: three species of ground-dwelling seed-eaters; three others living on cactuses and eating seeds; one living in trees and eating seeds; and 7 species of tree-dwelling insect-eaters.
Scientists long after Darwin spent years trying to understand the process that had created so many types of finches that differed mainly in the size and shape of their beaks.

How does fecal coliform get into the water
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The presence of fecal coliform in aquatic environments may indicate that the water has been contaminated with the fecal material of humans or other animals. Fecal coliform bacteria can enter rivers through direct discharge of waste from mammals and birds, from agricultural and storm runoff, and from human sewage.
