Answer:

It has been hypothesized that there were four steps that occurred to create the first living cell:

1. The Abiotic (Nonliving) synthesis and accumulation of small organic monomers like amino acids or nucleotides

2. The Joining of monomers into polymers

3. The origin of an effective, low-risk method of replication ( RNA World )

4. The self-assembly of molecules into droplets that had chemical characteristics inside different from the environment outside.

I think that the enclosure of self-replicating RNA in a phospholipid membrane. The first cell is thought to have arisen by the enclosure of self-replicating RNA and associated molecules in a membrane composed of phospholipids.

What would happen if u place a cell in a container of water with high solute concentration?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Large quantities of water molecules constantly move across cell membranes by simple diffusion, often facilitated by movement through membrane proteins, including aquaporins. In general, net movement of water into or out of cells is negligible. For example, it has been estimated that an amount of water equivalent to roughly 100 times the volume of the cell diffuses across the red blood cell membrane every second; the cell doesn't lose or gain water because equal amounts go in and out. There are, however, many cases in which net flow of water occurs across cell membranes and sheets of cells. An example of great importance to you is the secretion of and absorption of water in your small intestine. In such situations, water still moves across membranes by simple diffusion, but the process is important enough to warrant a distinct name - osmosis.

_____ are a group of organic compounds including fats, phospholipids, and steroids.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Lipids are a group of organic compounds including fats, phospholipids, and steroids.

Lipids are a group of organic compounds that do not dissolve easily with water. Lipids include fats, oils, monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, phospholipids, hormones, vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K), and steroids. Lipids functions by storing energy for organisms, as chemical messengers between cells, tissues, and organs, and they also function as structural parts of cell membranes.
