Answer:

\boxed {\tt Regulates \ what \ enters \ and \ exits \ the \ cell}

Explanation:

The cell membrane is a phospholipid membrane that surrounds the cell and helps protect it. The main purpose of the cell membrane is to control the transport of substances that enter and exit the cell.

Therefore, the correct answer is regulates what enters and exits the cell.

Compare hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solutions. When an environment is hypotonic, what happens to the cell? (1 point)
Elan Coil [88]

When an environment is hypotonic, the cell has more solute, so solvent moves from outside the cell to inside, causing the cell to swell.

WHAT IS TONICITY:

  • Tonicity refers to the ability of a solution to cause the inflow or outflow of water in a cell. Tonicity of a solution can either be: hypotonic, hypertonic or isotonic.

  • Hypotonic: This is when a solution has less concentration of solute or more concentration of water than its surroundings.

  • Hypertonic: This is when a solution has more concentration of solute or less concentration of water than its surroundings.

  • Isotonic: This is when the solute concentration between a solution and a cell is balanced or equal.

Based on osmosis, which is the movement of water from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane, water will move from a hypotonic environment into a cell containing more solute.

Therefore, When an environment is hypotonic, the cell has more solute, so solvent moves from outside the cell to inside, causing the cell to swell.

An animal has a diploid chromosome number of 60. Suppose that the first meiotic division of a germ cell is normal, but a single
ella [17]

Answer:

Two gametes end up with 30 chromosomes, one gamete will have 31 and one will have 29.

Explanation:

During meiosis, a single diploid cell divides into four haploid cells with half the chromosome number than the parent cell.

During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and the chromosome number in the two daughter cells goes down by half. During meiosis II, the "sister" chromatids separate, and the chromosome number in the respective daughter cells remains the same.

Non-disjunction of a single dyad in meiosis II causes that one of the daughter cells will have an extra chromosome, and another will be lacking one. The two other gametes will be normal.

I drew a simple example of what would happen during meiosis of a 2n=4 cell if there was non-disjunction in a single dyad during meiosis II.

What does a plant's large central vacuole hold?
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Mainly water

Explanation:

The main function of a plant's vacuole is to provide pressure to give structure to the cell itself. As for central vacuoles, they fill up and store water which pushes against the cell wall.

Hopefully this made sense
