The size of the algal size will increase or swell when a student removes an algal cell from its marine environment and puts it into a sample of freshwater.
Tonicity refers to the concentration of a solution compared to another solution. A solution is said to be hypertonic, if it has a greater concentration of solutes than the other solution. A solution is said to be hypotonic, if it has a lower concentration of solutes than the other solution. A solution is said to be isotonic, if it has the same concentration of solutes as of the other solution.
In a marine environment, the algal cells are said to be hypertonic with a higher concentration of the solutes than the freshwater. When such a cell is placed in freshwater with hypotonic environment, the concentration of solutes in the cell is higher than the external environment. In other words, it has lesser water molecules in it. As a result, osmosis occurs which is the movement of water molecules from a region of its higher concentration to a region of its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane and water enters the cell from the freshwater. Thus, increasing the size of the algal cell or the algal cell swells.
No it isnt a rational nu7mber.
Kelp is very sensitive to temperature change. Placing the plant near the window and exposing it to direct sunlight will result in continuous warming of the water in which the kelp plant is growing. Research has shown that kelp plant degrades very quickly when temperature increases due to tissue loss.
Enzymes are a type of protein that aid in which of the following processes?
- cellular signaling and regulation
- transport across the cell membrane
- the breakdown of food molecules
- all of these
I think you forgot the answer choices. Is this your question?
If so, it is <u>D) all of these. </u>Enzymes aid in all kinds of microbiological processes, including cellular signalization, regulation and transportation - in addition to the breakdown of nutrients.
A "ring of Life" is more appropriate to describe the relationship between archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes than a “tree of life “, because each group of single-celled prokaryotic organisms produces something that is a necessity to another group of single-celled prokaryotic organisms. so therefor it is not like a tree of life which is more of a hierarchy than an everyone, and everything is equal Ring of Life.
