Answer:

d. 120 years

Explanation:

If you think that the maximum life span of human beings is 100 years, be aware that our existence may be to extend for at least another 15 or 20 years. At least that is what warrants a recent study in the United States.

According to the study, the trend in the mid-1990s was that the world's oldest people would not be over 115. The explanation for this, according to the researchers, is that people are no longer aging as before, due to easier access to health care, nutrition and better living conditions. These factors, incidentally, should continue to increase the life span of people in the coming decades.

But while the news is encouraging, scientists say not everything is that perfect. According to study co-author Brandon Miholland of Albert Einstein College of Medicine, it is possible that many people have a slightly longer life than said 115 years, however, the chances of human life exceeding 120 years are ridiculously slim. : one in ten thousand.

Which term describes the difference in the concentrations of a substance across a cell's membrane?
SpyIntel [72]

Correct answer: C) Concentration gradient

The process of movement of a particle in a solution from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration across a membrane is called as concentration gradient.

For example: If we drop a few drop of dye in a glass of water, it will diffuse along a concentration gradient, i.e, the region where dye is found in highest concentration to the region where it is in lower concentration.

It will occur until the concentration of dye become uniform in all the direction in the glass of water.

Answer:

The answer is b. Both of them are characterized by selective permeability.

Explanation:

  • c. Only the nuclear membrane has nuclear pores that connect the two bilayers. The pores act as protein channels or passages that allow transport of materials. The cell membrane does contain channel proteins or transmembrane proteins but not protein channels.
  • d. The nuclear membrane separates nuclear contents from the cytoplasm whereas the cell membrane separates cellular contents from the extracellular environment.
