The ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) most likely produces neuronal special proteins.

Explanation:

Conduction of electrical impulses by action potentials of neurons takes place through controlled flow of charged ions through neuronal membranes. This ion transfer is controlled by specialized neuronal channel proteins which are present in the neuronal cell membrane.  

These channel proteins allow for hydrophillic passage of ions and water molecules across the neuronal membranes.  

Ribosomes that are attached to the RER are involved in protein synthesis. They carry the code for proteins carried by the mRNA and translate into respective protein.

The RER along with some free ribosomes cluster together as Nissl bodies and are mainly involved in neuronal specialized proteins.

Tom [10]

Answer:

oxygen

Explanation:

A limiting factor is any condition whose decrease, increase, absence or presence is able to limit/stop population growth. Examples of limiting factors include abiotic conditions (e.g., temperature, water, oxygen, CO2, etc) or biotic conditions (e.g., food, mate, etc). There are many aquatic species that require high levels of oxygen (e.g., fish), thus being it a limiting factor for these species.

The tendency for a solution of water and solutes to take up water across a selectively permeable membrane is called
olasank [31]

Answer:

Osmosis.

Explanation:

Osmosis is defined as the passive transport in which net movement of water across the membrane from high water area potential to low water area potential. The membrane is known as selectively permeable membrane moved by a concentration of solute both sides of the membrane.

Selectively permeable membrane is a membrane which is selective in nature that allows unrestricted passage of water molecules, but not solute molecules.
