Answer:

The correct answer is - cholesterol.

Explanation:

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that is applied to a solvent without any solute particle to prevent it from entering inward into a specific solution by the process of the osmosis.

In a cell to prevent osmosis or resistance to the osmotic pressure a cell membrane need to be have cholesterol as it is hydrophobic in nature and most of the solution have water as solvent.

Thus, the correct answer is - cholesterol.

Answer:

Rutherford overturned Thomson's model in 1911 with his well-known gold foil experiment in which he demonstrated that the atom has a tiny and heavy nucleus. Rutherford designed an experiment to use the alpha particles emitted by a radioactive element as probes to the unseen world of atomic structure.

True or False. When reactions are too slow to meet the needs of the cell, enzymes are missing from cells and cellular reactions.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Organic catalyst that increase the rate of biochemical reactions in the cells of living organism s are called enzymes.The are proteins with active sites which are specific to a particular  substrate, for enzyme-substrate complex and later enzyme product complex to formed.

They  act by lowering the activation energy  in the organic chemical reaction therefore increase the rate at which chemical reactions progress.

Hence when  the reactions are too slow,activation energy are high,because enzymes are not available to catalyze the reaction fixing the active sites with the the substrates.
