Ans.
Diffusion, osmosis, and active transport are mechanism of cellular transport that involves movement of molecules through plasma membrane. Diffusion shows movement of small, hydrophobic particles without the help of protein molecules through cell membrane along the concentration gradient.
Osmosis involves movement of water molecules against concentration gradient (from an area of high solvent concentration to an area of low solvent concentration) through cell membrane.
Active transport shows movement of particles, against the concentration gradient, means from a region of higher to lower concentration of molecules through cell membrane. It involves transport through membrane proteins.
Thus, the part of cell, which is affected by the movement of molecules through osmosis, diffusion, and active transport is cell membrane or plasma membrane.
Answer:
Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around arterioles) → Ca++ released from ER → intracellular Ca++ up → stimulates contraction. c. Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around bronchioles) → phosphorylates protein needed for response to Ca++, preventing response.
Answer:
there might be fewer rabbits and foxes
Explanation:
If carrots were removed from the food web then there might be fewer rabbits and foxes. This is because based on this web, carrots make up 50% of the rabbit's diet. If this is removed, then there would not be enough food to maintain the same size population and the population will begin to shrink. This also applies to the fox population since their main source of food are the rabbits. If the rabbit population decreases, then the fox population will decrease as well since their food supply has shrunk and will not be able to maintain the current fox population size.
