Biology

The remaining cells can divide and make new cells to heal the wound. But an organism made of one large single cell will die from even a small wound, because the inside contents of its single cell will leak out and it has no backup cells to preserve its life therefore cells can't be that large in size.

Hope this helps!

What allows for some substances to be reabsorbed and others to leak from the tubule in the enthrone?
MAXImum [283]
The right answer is <span>A) semi-permeable membrane

<span>A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane permeable to a liquid (solvent) and impermeable (or poorly permeable) to substances dissolved in the liquid (solute).

</span>The tubule of a kidney consists of a semi-permeable membrane and has also specific transporters which allow absorption and reabsorption. These "tools" allows some substances like ions to be absorbed/reabsorbed (by the transporters), without any changes in the concentration of the other substances (because both the membrane and the transporters stopped them).</span>
