Answer:

due to large size of salt and sugar

Explanation:

Some molecules, such as hydrocarbons and oxygen can cross the membrane. Many large molecules (such as glucose and other sugars) cannot. First, imagine a semipermeable membrane, one that will allow water to pass through but keeps in dissolved molecules

At times this photosynthetic organism can switch to being heterotrophic. Describe a condition that would favor this organism bei
romanna [79]
There are a few plants that capable of becoming heterotroph. A heterotroph plant will become carnivorous that will try to lure and devour other organisms (mostly insects). The main purpose of the carnivorous plant is to gain important nutrients(like nitrate or phosphate) that important for the plant grow.

The condition that would favor this organism being heterotrophic would be where the soil nutrient is extremely poor so that the plant needs to gain it from another source. If the soil is rich in nutrient the autotrophic plant has an advantage because it doesn't need to make the unnecessary structure like heterotropic plants.
