A bend in a set of rocks caused by compression.

The rock goes back to its original shape when the stress is removed. A bend  or fold in the rocks is caused by compression. Folds are easiest to see in sedimentary or volcanic rocks that were deposited horizontally.

Or in easier words, compression can be defined as the action or state of being squished down or made smaller or more pressed together.

8-4 Discounting the Transverse Carrier Model. At one time, membrane biologists thought that transport proteins might act by bind
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The two main reasons are nonpolar core of the bilayer and the active transport.

Explanation:

The membrane is structured to have two outer layers that are polar and an inner layer that is nonpolar.

If a membrane protein is exposed to the solvent, i<em>t will also have a polar side. It would be very difficult for the polar face of the membrane to move through the nonpolar core of the bilayer.</em> Therefore, this model is not feasible.

One major form of transport, active transport, moves solutes up the concentration gradient. <em>The binding of a solute and then release on another side of the membrane would only work for facilitated diffusion because it would cause a net movement of solutes down the concentration gradient.</em> It is unclear how energy could be expended to drive this process in the transverse carrier model.<em> Therefore, the transverse carrier model does not explain active transport.</em>

Compared to a cell with few aquaporins in its membrane, a cell containing many aquaporins will A. have a faster rate of osmosis
Aloiza [94]

The correct option is A: have a faster rate of osmosis

A cell containing many aquaporins will have a faster rate of osmosis.

Aquaporins are micro water channels within the membrane that allow for the exchange of water and other neutral molecules over the biological membranes of other organisms.

Due to the presence of Aquaporins in plants, they have a high diversity of regulation properties, localizations, and transport selectivity.

The rate of osmosis increases as the aquaporins facilitate the transfer of water at a faster rate.
