The cell membranes of the plants and other organisms are semi - permeable. This means that they allow other substances to get in and out while ban others. In this item, placing lettuce or spinach in water, allow water to get into the cell through the process called pinocytosis or "cell drinking". This process makes the leaves crispy.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

FRAP or Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching refers to a method of finding the kinetics of diffusion in living cells, generally with the assistance of fluorescence microscopy. The method comprises the labeling of a particular cell constituent with a fluorescent molecule, imaging that cell, photobleach a small section of the cell, then image the recovery of fluorescence with time.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Substance C

Explanation:

From the statement scenario, it is given that no water remained above substance C. This then means that substance C actually absorbed all the water above it faster than the two other substances.

Therefore, we can deduce that substance C has the greatest porosity. This means that it has the highest amount of spaces within where the water can be absorbed.

Porosity has to do with the available empty spaces which is within a material. This property allows materials or substances to absorb other substances that are absorbable.
