Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Assisted living is the term used to describe when an elder moves into a younger relative´s home, is false.

Explanation:

The reason is that assisted living is defined as a system of care for the elderly who do need assistance with daily activities, such as caring for themselves, walking, or performing social activities, but they are not in such a condition that they would need to be institutionalized in a nursing facility. Usually, these assisted living facilities provide the person with enough independence but also assistance and company. But it is not a service offered by younger relatives of the elder person. Mostly, it is a housing service with special conditions, but that allow the person a certain level of self-care and independence. This is why the affirmation is false.

Answer: This is because animals (like humans) have more organelles to store in our bodies than bacteria. This makes sense because without all of our organelles we wouldn't be able to function properly. This is just another one of those form=function things.

Your lab group is experimenting with the diffusion of molecules across a membrane. Dialysis tubing is used as a model cell membr

Margaret [11]

Answer: the membrane channel

Explanation:

In passive diffusion, the small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer seen in blue. This layer acts as a semi-permeable or selectively permeable membrane; its hydrophilic heads are attracted to water (seen facing outwards) while its water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.

Thus the water will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, until the system reaches a steady state called equilibrium- after this, there will be no net movement of water. Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

The dialysis tubing mimics a semi permeable membrane; it only allows water and small molecules of iodine to cross into the bag containing starch. The tubing is impermeable to starch; these large molecules require the aid of protein omplexes called membrane channels, in order to move across the membrane and against the concentration gradient.
