Answer:
(B) HEK cells exposed to the most hypotonic conditions will display the greatest degree of AQP5 membrane localization, allowing water to flow into the cells.
Explanation:
The function of AQP5 (an aquaporin) is to allow the water to move into or out of the cell down the concentration gradient. When placed in hypotonic solutions, the internal environment of HEK cells will be hypertonic. Water always moves from hypotonic (higher water concentration) to hypertonic (lower water concentration) solution.
Hence, the HEK cells exposed to the hypotonic conditions will localize AQP5 in their membranes to allow the water to move from out hypotonic conditions to the inner hypertonic environment.
Answer:
These are the following answers to the items:
Pinocytosis -cell engulfs molecules in cell "drinking"
Facilitated diffusion- molecules helped by protein; move insoluble molecules
across plasma membrane
Passive diffusion- molecules move in and out freely from high to low concentration
Phagocytosis- cell engulfs microorganisms in cell "eating"
Active transport- molecules "pumped" in or out from low to high concentration
Passive diffusion- oxygen, carbon dioxide
Active transport- transports sodium, potassium
Pinocytosis- transports glucose, amino acids

Answer:
<em>Organisms that are eaten by the mayfly will increase.</em>
<em>Organisms that eat mayfly will decrease at first.</em>
<em>Organisms that eat mayfly would consume more of other organisms in their diet</em>
Explanation:
her get killed or they will migrate from the stream that is polluted. The population of the organisms on which the mayfly larva fed would increase as it will have a lesser number of predators now.
On the other hand, the organisms which fed on the mayfly would decrease at first as they will have a lesser amount of food available. They might find another source of food in order to survive.
<span>The question above is incomplete. The options attached to the question are as follows:
A) Milk cartons
B.) Computer monitors
C.) Disposable tapes
D.) E-mail
ANSWER
The correct option is D.
Before the advent of e-mail, huge amount of papers are used in the process of writing letters. The writing materials,the envelopes and the stamps are all made of paper and this led to a great waste as the papers have to be disposed after use.This is not the case with electronic mails. Electronic mails do not need paper at all and it has drastically reduce the amount of papers that is used in writing letters.</span>
