Answer:

The correct answer is - osmosis.

Explanation:

Paramecium lives in freshwater like the Potomac River which is hypotonic to the cytosol of the paramecium. Paramecium uses contractile vacuoles to transport the water from the lower concentration (outside of the cell) to a high concentration of solvent to the inside of the cells.

This process of cell transport is carried out by osmosis as their cytoplasm contains a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell. This excess water is collected into vacuoles called contractile vacuole that swells and finally internalized the water to the outside of the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is - osmosis.

I need help ! i really don’t get it
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The presence of an additional chromosome

Explanation:

Look at "pair" 21. See how there are THREE chromosomes instead of TWO? Normally, there would only be two chromosomes in each pair but this karyotype shows a trisomy (see def. below) of the 21st pair. This was caused by a nondisjunction mutation of the 21st pair. The is also the karyotype of a person with Down's Syndrome.

Definition of Trisomy:

A condition of the presence of three chromosomes in a pair instead of two. This normally causes developmental irregularity.

Leokris [45]

Answer: Difficulty with communication

Explanation: The cerebral cortex is the thin layer of the brain that covers the outer portion (1.6mm to 5mm) of the cerebrum. It is covered by the meninges and often referred to as gray thing . The cortex is gray because nerves in this area lack the insulation that makes most other parts of the brain appear to be white. The cortex also covers the cerebellum.

The cerebellum receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain and then regulates motor movements. The cerebellum coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and <em><u>speech</u></em>, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Choosing protein as macromolecule.

Explanation:

The given environmental changes can lead to structural changes in protein as well:

pH - Several amino acids contain sidechains with practical gatherings that can promptly pick up or lose a proton. Changes in pH would prompt an adjustment in the charge of the amino acids, prompting charge-charge attraction or repilsion between non-interfacing amino parts.  

Temperature - High temperatures can prompt protein denaturation. Warmth can upset hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions.  

Reduction or oxidation Environment - Some tertiary structure of protein folding is held by disulfide linkages. Reducing agent will lead to unfolding by introducing itself to break disulfide bonds.

Effect of these change: Sequence of amino acid and structure of protein molecule form determines function, any slight change to a protein's structure may result in the protein to become dysfunctional or produce different product.
