The water is able to leave in and out of the cells because there is a cell membrane splits the bilayer of tissue and then the water start leaving and  coming back in again from  the stage of osmosis.

Answer:

Water is able to carry nutrients into and around cells because of osmosis.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the process of water diffusion through a selectively permeable membrane. This diffusion occurs because of an exchange from the least concentrated medium to the most concentrated medium. This occurs until both sides of the membrane are equal.

Which process described shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere?
Arte-miy333 [17]

The process described which shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere is river water eroding a rocky bank and carrying silt to the sea which is therefore denoted as option B.

<h3>What is Hydrosphere?</h3>

This is referred to as the combined mass or quantity of water found on the plant such as earth and it comprises of different water bodies such as rivers, seas etc.

Lithosphere on the other hand is referred to as the solid, outer part of Earth which consists of the upper portion of the mantle and the crust in the form of rocks etc.

Water is very important in the ecosystem and is the reason why it is recycled so as to enable its presence which is usually in the form of precipitation. River water which is part of the hydrosphere erodes a rocky bank which forms part of the lithosphere.

How is a nuclear envelope similar to a cell membrane
Bond [772]

Answer:

It is similar because the nuclear envelope is a membrane similar to the cell membrane around the whole cell. There are pores and spaces for RNA and proteins to pass through while the nuclear envelope keeps all of the chromatin and nucleolus inside. When the cell is in a resting state there is something called chromatin in the nucleus.
