C. The number of covalent bonds is equal to the number of unpaired valence electrons. For example, nitrogen and phosphorous both have 3 unpaired valence electrons thus forming 3 covalent bonds.
Based on their function, you would expect melanocytes in the skin to have a higher than usual number of ribosomes.
Ribosomes are cell structures that functions as the site of biological protein synthesis. Ribosomes are present in all living cells where they produce proteins required for many cellular functions. Ribosomes join amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA molecules. Ribosomes are made up of two parts which are; the large subunits (which connect amino acids to create a polypeptide chain) and the small ribosomal subunits (which read the RNA).
Answer and Explanation:
The cell was placed in a hypertonic solution. Glucose is a monosaccharide while starch is a polysaccharide. The concentration on the outside is higher compared to that on the inside. The cells have cell membrane that is semi-permeable.
Movement of molecules is dependent on the concentation gradient. However, the size of molecules determine the diffusion rate. Small and light molecules diffuse faster than large and heavy molecules thus glucose diffused faster than starch.
The cell membrane being permeable suggested that it allows molecules of small sizes to pass but not large ones.
They are things that are non living. These include water, rock, soil, sunshine, air, wind, and any other items we use that isn't alive (cellphones, TV, furniture, clothes, etc.). Biotic factors are opposite of this. These include anything living like humans, dogs, plants, etc.
