Answer:

C. The transport of molecules into and out of the cell through osmosis and diffusion.

Explanation:

All cells have a structure called a plasma membrane or plasmalema, which acts as a barrier to prevent both the exit of cell content into the medium and the flow of any particle into the cell. The plasma membrane's main function is to transport molecules into and out of the cell through osmosis and diffusion in relation to the concentrations of salts and water inside and outside the cells. This characteristic therefore shows an important ability to select the structure, which can vary from 7 to 10 nm in thickness.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

If they are looking for one BEST answer, it is the water.

If looking for top two, it is water and soil.

Realistically, however, this disposal can contaminate all 3.

Let me explain:

The motor oil that is dumped on a driveway first makes its way into the soil. The freshwater found in this soil becomes contaminated with motor oil and can eventually runoff into the ocean. Once this liquid evaporates, it then becomes air pollution. Shortest, best answer tho is water.

Hope this helps. Have a great day!

An organism has two types of cells: diploid somatic cells and haploid gametes. How does this organism reproduce? A. Sexually B.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

A. sexually

Explanation:

The organism has haploid gametes. Human sex cells (egg and sperm cells) contain a single set of each chromosome, making them haploid. During fertilization, the organism acquires a set of chromosomes from each parent, making it a diploid (two sets of each chromosome) zygote.

Hope this helps.
