Large molecules often cross the plasma membrane while inside vesicles.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane is a fluid membrane mad of phospholipids bilayer. The fatty acid chains are sandwiched in between the phosphate ends of the lipid layers. The fluidity of the membrane is due to the fact that these molecules, including the integral proteins that span the membrane are NOT covalently bound to each other hence can freely move within the membrane. Cholesterol molecules are intercalated in between the fatty acid chains and prevent these carbon chains from binding to each other tightly through hydrogen bonding hence adding to the fluidity of the membrane. The cell membrane has natural pores within it that allow small molecules such as water to pass through, passively, in and out of the cell. Larger molecules have to pass through channels created by the integral proteins while the largest molecules are taken in by endocytosis and taken out by exocytosis, which translates to vesicle transport in cell.

Which process is used to transport molecules into the cell that are too large to move through the membrane?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Other molecules such as proteins, starch and sugar are simply too large to diffuse across the membrane. Sometimes, some of these large molecules are transported across the cell membranes by carrier proteins; this does not require energy and as a result is a form of passive transpor

How do plants regulate water loss due to transpiration?
olga nikolaevna [1]
Stomata are tiny pores present in the leaf that allows gas exchange and is where water vapour leaves plants and carbon dioxide enters. Special cells called guard cells present in the stomata, control each pore's opening or closing. When stomata are open, transpiration rates increase; when they are closed, transpiration rates decrease.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

I belive that the answer is B

Explanation:

I believe that it's B because if the rabit population continued to grow then it will allow the soil to become more fuirtle because of the dropings that the rabbits leave behind. This would cause more plants and growth in the habitat, which would lead to economic growth

I hope this helps!
