Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "it will die of old age".

Explanation:

Cell division is not only the essence of cell proliferation and reproduction, but also helps the cells to maintain healthy. If a cell is not allowed to divide it will die of old age. This condition is known as cell cycle arrest, which occurs usually at stressful conditions such as  hypoxia and oxidative stress and could evolve into serious conditions such as acute tubular necrosis.

What type of solution is this cell sitting in?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is A. The cell is sitting in a hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

A hypertonic solution is a solution in which there are more number of solutes present in the solution than inside the cell. The solutes then tend to pass into the cell through diffusion from the solution.

As it can be seen in the diagram, the concentration of salt is more in the solution i.e 40%. Hence, the salt from the solution enters into the cell by diffusion and has a concentration of 10% inside the cell which shows the cell to be placed in a hypertonic environment.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Phospholipid bilayer.

Explanation:

The plasma membrane (also known as the cell membrane or cytoplasmic membrane) is defined as a biological membrane that separates the interiors of a cell from its external environment.

The plasma membrane has a function that protects the cell from its external environment, mediates cellular transport, and transmits cellular signals.

It is composed of a lipids bilayer (phospholipids and cholesterol), (phospholipid is a lipid made of glycerol, two fatty acid tails, and a phosphate-linked head group) with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules which hence, regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells. Plasma membranes is very flexible in order to allow cells change form example, red blood cells change shape as they pass through narrow capillaries.

What is photosynyhesis and cellular respiration?
Alex787 [66]

Photosynthesis is the process through which plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food to sustain themselves. Cellular Respiration is when cells use oxygen and water to create a food source for the cell. The formula for photosynthesis is the same for cellular respiration except it's backwards. Hope this helps.
