How does the plasma membrane contribute to the structure and function of the cell?

Chemistry

Gennadij [26K]3 years ago

Answer: It forms a rigid structure that only allows materials to exit the cell.

Explanation:

The primary function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells.

An image of plasma membrane shows the phospholipid bilayer, embedded proteins, and cholesterol molecules.  The plasma membrane is the border between the interior and exterior of a cell. As such, it controls passage of various molecules—including sugars, amino acids, ions, and water—into and out of the cell.

I hope this helped you have a good day.

Temperature is an example of a categorical variable a quantitative variable either a quantitative or categorical variable neithe
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: Temperature is an example of a quantitative variable

Explanation:

A quantitative variable is defined as :

  • A variable that can assume a numerical value .
  • It can be ordered with respect to either magnitude or dimensions.
  • It is further classified into two types : interval scale and ratio scale.

Temperature comes under interval scale , because interval scale has no zero point.

For example : A 0° C Celsius does not interpret that there is no temperature.

Therefore , Temperature is an example of a quantitative variable.

Hence, the correct answer is "quantitative variable"

Naturally occurring zirconium exists are five isotopes. axe with a mass of 89.905 u(51.45%); Zr with a mass of 90.906 u (11.22%)
Anton [14]
Isotope 1: 89.905 * 51.45 = 4625.61225 / 100 = 46.2561225
Isotope 2: 90.906 * 11.22 = 1019.96532 / 100 = 10.1996532
Isotope 3: 91.905 * 17.15 = 1576.17175 / 100 = 15.7617075
Isotope 4: 93.906 * 17.38 = 1632.08628 / 100 = 16.3208628
Isotope 5: 95.908 * 2.08 = 268.5424 / 100 = 2.685424

46.2561225 + 10.1996532 +  15.7617075 + 16.3208628 + 2.685424 = 91.22377
actual mass Zr = about 91.22
