Endocytosis is the process of capturing a substance or particle from outside the cell by engulfing it with the cell membrane, and bringing it into the cell. Exocytosis describes the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents to the outside of the cell. The main similarity is that both exocytosis and endocytosis are involved in transporting big molecules across the membrane using a vesicle and needs energy. The basic differences are that : 1) Endocytosis brings materials to the inside of the cell while exocytosis takes them out. Exocytosis, on the other hand, is described as the process of fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane to release their contents to the external environment of the cell.
First we must understand the balanced chemical equation:
Pb(NO3)2 + K2CrO4 ==> PbCr04 + 2KNO3
This shows us that two moles of potassium nitrate are formed from 1 mole of lead nitrate or potassium chromate solution. The next step is to find out how many moles of each reactant there are. Note the word Molar is a concentration that simply means moles per liter.
2.25L of 1.5M lead nitrate = 2.25x1.5 = 3.375 moles of lead nitrate
1.15L of 2.75M potassium chromate = 1.15x2.75 = 3.1625 moles
The important part here is to see that the number of moles of the reactants are different. We know the number of moles of products will be dependent on the number of moles of reactants, and in this case there is less potassium chromate than there is lead nitrate, so this is the limiting factor as there is a one to one relationship with both reactants. Therefore, the number of moles of potassium nitrate produced is 2 x number of moles of potassium chromate. i.e. 6.325 moles of potassium nitrate is liberated.
To work out the number of grams, we must find the molar mass (the mass of one mole) of KNO3, which is the sum of the molar mass of each of its component atoms that make up the molecule. I've looked this up as 101.1 grams per mole.
Now we simply times the molar mass by the number of moles to yield the final grams liberated: 6.325 moles x 101.1 grams/mole = 639.4 grams of potassium nitrate is liberated from this reaction.
Answer: Water is drawn in through small openings on a sponge's body called OSTIA.
The supportive skeleton of a sponge contains SPICULES which provide protection from predators.
Explanation:
Sponges refer to any of the aquatic animals of the phyllum porifera which is normally characterized with porous structures and has horn-like calcareous internal framework.
Sponges usually have multiple pores called "OSTIA" on their bodies that allow water to enter them.
Most sponges are sessile and because of this, they can't run away from predators. They usually have sharp "SPICULES" which are part of their skeleton that provide them some certain degree of defense. Apart from this, they also produce toxins which poisons predators that attempt to consume them
I believe the answer to this is Both
Nematodes are wormlike organisms which can be seen with naked eye, live in water-filled pore spaces in the soil. Nematodes are in large number in the upper soil layers where organic matter, plant roots, and other resources are most abundant.
The functions of nematodes:
- Free-living nematodes decompose organic material into nutrients and cycled them in the soil by feeding on some bacteria and fungi.
- Nematodes help in distributing bacteria and fungi through the soil and along roots by carrying live and dormant microbes.
- They used as food for higher predators, soil microorthropodes.
- They eat disease-causing organisms, thus suppress their growth.
- They acts as potential bio- control agents.
