Pectinate muscles are parallel ridges in the walls of the atria of the heart. The name is due to their resemblance to the teeth of a comb (pecten). The heart is the organ pumps blood to all parts of the body. It is made up of four chambers, that is, right and left ventricles, left and right atria, and the blood vessels, Pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, aorta, and venacava. An auricles are pouch like structure that increase the total filling capacity of the atrium and also increase the volume of blood that an atrium is able to contain.
Answer:
The answer is b. Both of them are characterized by selective permeability.
Explanation:
- Option a. states that both, the nuclear and the cell membrane have two layers. This is only true for the nuclear membrane that consists of two lipid bilayers whereas the plasma membrane only contains one layer.
- c. Only the nuclear membrane has nuclear pores that connect the two bilayers. The pores act as protein channels or passages that allow transport of materials. The cell membrane does contain channel proteins or transmembrane proteins but not protein channels.
- d. The nuclear membrane separates nuclear contents from the cytoplasm whereas the cell membrane separates cellular contents from the extracellular environment.
Is this supposed to be a true false question?
<span>When a cell is in a dynamic equilibrium with its environment, this means that the salt/water concentration inside the cell is equal to the salt/water concentration outside the cell. It is called an equilibrium because no transport of molecules is needed since the concentrations are already the same.</span>
