Answer: Selectively permeable means a membrane allows the passage of some molecules or ions and inhibits the passage of others. The capacity to filter molecular transport in this manner is called selective permeability.

Explanation:

Shortened: This means the membrane only allows some things to pass through while others can't.

Hope this helps! ^^

Answer:

Well ,Selectively permeable means a membrane allows the passage of some molecules or ions and inhibits the passage of others. The capacity to filter molecular transport in this manner is called selective permeability. or a property of cellular membranes that only allows certain molecules to enter or exit the cell. ... Movement across a selectively permeable membrane can occur actively or passively. ( best example would be ) For example, water molecules can move passively through small pores on the membrane.

Explanation:

hopefully that made sense they're really isn't a shortcut on explaining this type of topic but i tried to make it as understanding as possible, Good luck! :)

True or false: High levels of adrenaline decrease the ability to remember trauma but
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: False

Explanation:

This is a false statement because researches have shown that Adrenaline is helping and it is good for long-term memory and if we have lots of Adrenaline that is making our brain work and remember better and more.

If we are recalling being insulted, falling, or something more, we can still retrieve those memories because of the Adrenaline and that means that it is not decreasing the ability to remember the  trauma.

Wind power, water power (also called hydroelectricity), solar power, ethanol:
lora16 [44]
Wind power:

Advantages:

-Using wind as a source of power is very cost-effective. This is method is fuel free and the electricity harvested from wind farms is sold at a fixed price over a long period of time.

-Wind power is a clean fuel source. Using wind as a source of power prevents air pollution unlike power plants that mostly rely on fossil fuels which releases toxins into the hair causing both environmental and health problems.

-Wind power is a sustainable source of power since nothing can really stop it from being produced. Since this source of power relies on air, as long as there is air, energy can be harvested.

Disadvantages:

-Wind turbines are usually built in rural areas due to the size of them and the amount of space needed to build them. Because of this, they aren’t usually close to cities or remote locations where the energy harvested from them is most needed.

-Wind turbines can harmfully impact nature. Because of their height and size, many birds and other flying animals end up getting killed by the spinning blades connected to the turbine.

-Locations to build wind turbines may be hard to get due to competition with other things that may be of more importance on the land compared to wind farms.

Are white stars the same thing as white dwarfs?
vodomira [7]
A white dwarf is what stars like the Sun become after they have exhausted their nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, this type of star expels most of its outer material, creating a planetary nebula.

Naya [18.7K]
As Brandon climbs the mountain, he is getting into thinner and thinner air (air pressure is decreasing). All other things held constant, decreasing air pressure means decreasing temperature. As the air pressure decreases, particles get further apart and lose energy as they move about and collide into one another less and less frequently.
