In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids separate. Meiosis II produces 4 haploid daughter cells, whereas meiosis I produces 2 diploid daughter cells. Genetic recombination (crossing over) only occurs in meiosis I. D
Simple Diffusion Across the Cell (Plasma) Membrane. The structure of the lipid bi-layer allows small, uncharged substances such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, and hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, to pass through the cell membrane, down their concentration gradient, by simple diffusion.
Answer:
B. the breakdown of glucose in the chloroplast
Explanation:
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Recall that: <em>Water potential = pressure potential + solute potential</em>
Since the system is an open one;
<em>Water potential = solute potential = -iCRT</em>
i = number of particles the molecle will make in water (1)
C = molar concentration
R = Pressure constant = 0.0831 liter bar/mole K
T = temperature in kelvin = 22 + 273 = 295 K
To calculate water potential on side A:
C = 1 M
Water potential = - (1 x 1 x 0.0831 x 295) = -24.51 bars
For side B:
C = 2 M
Water potential = - (1 x 2 x 0.0831 x 295) = -49.03 bars
b.
<em>Since side A has higher water potential than side B, water will flow from side A to side B until equilibrium is established between the two sides. Water always flows from the region of higher water potential to the region of lower water potential.</em>
