Answer:

The component of water potential due to the hydrostatic pressure that is exerted on water in a cell. ... In turgid plant cells it usually has a positive value as the entry of water causes the protoplast to push against the cell wall (see turgor).

Can someone help with the labels for this ?

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.

Explanation:

The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.

Large molecules, such as glucose, that cannot cross the lipid bilayer can still move across the membrane through a type of passi

harkovskaia [24]

Facilitated diffusion. It is a passive transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell’s energy supplies. Instead, the energy is provide by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from one side of the membrane to the other. Red blood cells use facilitated diffusion to absorb glucose.
