Why is it important for the cell membrane to allow materials to enter and leave the cell

Cell membrane needs to allow and exit the materials that enter the cell because the cell needs nutrients and these nutrients are converted into molecules that aid in many cellular activities like repair, divide and form structures and biomolecules.
Also to excrete wastes and other harmful materials for the cell.
This continues because the cell wants to attain homeostasis.

Homeostasis is the state where the internal and external part of the body maintains and establishes balance and equilibrium. This is achieved through cellular processes in the body, the integumentary system regulates the body temperature, the hypothalamus –hunger and thirst of the individual and other interrelated organ systems that make the body healthy and in the state of equilibrium. Now, when diseases or disorders appear they disrupt the organ systems in the body thus, causing imbalance state –high fever, inability to focus and etc.

A property of living and non living things

earnstyle [38]

Hihi!

There are seven characteristics of living things: movement, breathing or respiration, excretion, growth, sensitivity, and reproduction! But sadly as for non-living things they lack most of these things. Their characteristics are that they lack the capability for growth, reproduction, respiration, metabolism, and movement. They also cannot respond to a stimuli and they also cannot evolve and adapt to their environment. Isn't that kind of sad?

I hope I helped!

How can humans controlling the water levels affect other species of aquatic life?

A sudden inrush of water could over whelm animals and possibly kill them if the water is of a different type.

Which choice below best describes the factors that can affect an ecosystem’s stability?

kirill [66]

Predator and Prey relationships would have the most effect on an ecosystem's stability because they keep a limit number on the opposing population (ex. rabbit population can only get so high because wolves keep eating them / wolf population can only be so high because there is't enough rabbit to eat)

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Predator-prey relation.

Explanation:

A predator is defined as an organism that hunts another individual, whereas a prey refers to the organism that is eaten by the predator. They tend to co-evolve (evolve together). The prey is essential for the predator to survive, while the predator controls the prey populations by hunting some of the individuals.

Predator-prey relations are interactions that occur between two species where one species (prey) represents a food source for the other species (predator).

The turtle (prey) is essential for the survival of the jaguar (Panthera onca), while the jaguar controls the populations of turtles by preying upon them. Therefore, this is a predator-prey relation.

Why what we know about cells is called a theory and not a law

Afina-wow [57]

The term "law" is a historical relic going back to Newtonian times, when after Newton's development of classical mechanics, it was thought that the workings of the universe were directly analagous to a perfectly constructed and perfectly predictable clockwork. That was turned on its head as a result of quantum mechanics, and modern scientists typically avoid use of the term "law" anymore because it is too dogmatic. Newton's "Laws" are still called that mainly for historical reasons now. What used to be called laws are now called theories.
