If the plasma membrane was permeable, but not selectively permeable, how would that affect the cell?

Biology
1 answer:
Lelechka [254]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It would most likely kill the cell.

Explanation:

If a cell's membrane is fully permeable (not semi-permeable) then substances that are harmful to the cell are more than likely to enter it at one point or another, which can pretty much end up killing it.

In short, the semi-permeable membrane is there to ensure that only the useful stuff gets in and that the bad stuff stays out.

Where are glaciers found select 3 opt
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Glaciers will only form under certain conditions and in specific environments. A cold climate and sufficient moisture in the air for the precipitation of snow are both necessary factors that permit at least some snow to last year-round. This allows for the build-up and compaction of snow that will eventually become glacial ice. Sufficiently cold climate conditions exist at high altitudes and high latitudes.

Explanation:

There must be landmasses at high latitudes for continental glaciers to occur, as they cannot form over open water. While persistent sea ice can and does form, because it floats, it does not flow as a glacier does.
