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.

The right option is a. variations.

Variations are the differences between the individual organisms of the same species which is as a result of genetic differences or the influence of environmental factors on the expression of the genetic abilities. Variation may be expressed in behavior, physical appearance, learning, and metabolism. The two types of variations are somatic variation and germinal variation.

sineoko [7]

Answer: The article read by Yuki is more likely to have been peer-reviewed because this article is part of a Journal Medicine and peer-review is mandatory in most Academic journals before publication.

Explanation:

Peer-review implies academic works such as research papers or articles are verified by peers of the author. For example, a medical article is evaluated by other experts in the same field with similar knowledge and competences. This process is essential to guarantee the information is accurate and reliable.  Moreover, peer-review is used mainly in academic journals or academic papers. Indeed, most academic journals require new articles or papers to be peer-review before these are published in the journal.

In this context, it is likely the article red by Yuki has been peer-reviewed because this is part of a Medicine journal and it is a general standard for articles in journals to be reviewed. Also, this is not a requirement for articles published in regular magazines such as Tasty Food magazine.
