The blood cells containing hemoglobin, that transports oxygen (O2) to the body tissues of vertebrates, are called red blood cells. Red blood cells (RBCs), are also referred to as red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes, (from Greek erythros for "red" and kytos for "hollow vessel"..RBCs take up oxygen in the lungs and release it into tissues while squeezing through the body's capillaries.

The diagram shows two cells. Identify structures C, D, and E and explain how they work together to perform a specific process wi

soldi70 [24.7K]

Structure C, D, and E in the diagram represent the endoplasmic reticulum, the ribosome, and the Golgi apparatus respectively.

When the ribosomes are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, they give it a rough appearance.

The ribosome, endoplasmic reticulum, and the Golgi apparatus work together in the synthesis and transport of protein within the cell. In other words, they are all involved in the secretory pathway of cells.

The ribosome represents the actual site of protein synthesis.
The endoplasmic reticulum gets involved by folding the synthesized proteins and packaging them into secretory vesicles. Thereafter, the vesicles are transported to the Golgi apparatus.
The packaged proteins undergo further processing within the Golgi apparatus before they are exported to the cell membrane via the cytosol.

In other words, the 3 organelles work together to form the secretory pathway of the cell. They are involved in the synthesis, packaging, processing, and eventual transport of proteins to their target sites.

What term is used when the concentrations of solutes inside and outside a cell are in equilibrium?

Schach [20]

Isotonic solutions is the term used when the concentrations of solutes inside and outside a cell are in equilibrium.

Explanation:

The isotonic solution is one which have same osmotic pressure on either side of the semi-permeable membrane.

In the isotonic solution there will be free movement of only water molecules and not solutes.

isotonic solution is the solution when two solutions have equal solute concentration.

The concentration of the solution will be in equilibrium.
