What's the difference between human skin and the cell membrane

Biology

Hatshy [7]3 years ago

Answer: Read explanation

Explanation: there’s actually no similarity at all. A cell membrane is made of phospholipids, globular proteins, glycolipids, glycoproteins, and cholesterol, and has passages that serve explicitly for passive and active transport of materials through it.

The skin is made of cells and dead keratin and serves as much as possible to prevent most substances from moving through it. It’s “designed” for toughness and distensibility, not for selective permeability.

All in all, the difference is that a cell membrane is explicitly and only for the passing and transport of materials through it, and the skin in the skin is made to be tough and durable, almost the opposite of a cell membrane.

In what zone is the ability to burrow and sustain changes in temperature and salinity important for an organisms' survival?
den301095 [7]
The correct option is C.
Living organisms that live in the littoral zones in the ocean are used to frequent changes in temperature and in the salinity of the ocean water. For an organism to survive in this environment, it needs to have adaptive features that will increase its survival. The littoral zone is divided into three zones, which are high, middle and lower littoral zones. Organisms living in high littoral zone have adaptive features that make them more adapted to desiccation due to the long hours of sunlight to which they are exposed. The organisms are usually exposed directly to the air or they can be enclosed in burrows.
