Answer:

The text is explaining a cell membrane.

Explanation:

A cell membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer that acts as a kind of "skin" for the cell. The membrane helps the cell maintain homeostasis and filter out harmful particles. Elements like oxygen are allowed to pass through via protein channels, which act as gates. Does this answer your question?

Allen pours water into a graduated cylinder. He notices that the surface of the water is curved, as shown below.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

When water is added to a graduated cylinder, having a surface where the sides of the water look higher than the center means that the curved surface is a concave meniscus which has formed because of surface tension (Choice C).

Explanation:

A meniscus is simply the curvature that the surface of a liquid acquires when it is in a container, such as a graduated cylinder. It is concave when there is attraction between molecules -water and glass- or it can be convex when both surfaces are repelled.

<u>Water is a polar molecule</u>, with the capacity to adhere to the surfaces it comes into contact with. This characteristic causes it to form a concave meniscus, as the outermost molecules adhere to the glass surface, while the surface tension of the water attracts the molecules from the centre downwards, causing the concavity.

Why is it important to prevent thermometer from resting no the bottom of the test tube?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

It's important to not touch the sides or the bottom of the test tube with the thermometer because touching it to the sides or bottom of the test tube fractures the glass and does not allow for correct temperature measurements.
