The solute potential of a plant cell is -10 bar, and its pressure potential is 3. The plant cell is placed into a solution with

a water potential of -10 bar.
What is the water potential of the cell, and in which way will water move?

The water potential of the cell would be -7 bar and thus, water will move from the cell to the surrounding solution.

Recall that:

Water potential = pressure potential + solute potential

For the plant cell, solute potential = -10, pressure potential = 3

Water potential of the cell = 3-10

                                          = -7 bar

The water potential of the cell is -7 bar while that of the surrounding solution is -10 bar. Thus, the cell has a higher water potential than the surrounding solution.

Recall that water usually moves from the region of high to the region of low water potential. Therefore, water will move from the cell to the surrounding solution.

<u>Sensory</u> memory.

Explanation:

Sensory memory is the type of memory that stores information for a very brief period of time it is even shorter than the time period of  the short term memory.

Sensory memory helps the  brain to hold the effects  of a sensory stimulus for sometime  even after the stimulus has ceased. This helps in continuous perception and processing of data in the brain.

The  expression of continuous reading, writing and speaking are due to the existence of sensory memory.

If sensory memory does not function properly then, the synchronization of words and their understanding would have been impossible.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Phenotypes

Explanation:

Heritability refers to the extent to which trait variations among individuals are attributable to their differing observable and most often definitive or measurable physical features, often called phenotypes. Examples of this variation could be something like height or eye colour. Basically it has to be traits that depend on genetics that environmental factors

How does the genotype of a bacterium determine its phenotype? Use the terms gene, mRNA, ribosome, and polypeptide in your answer
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Typically, the genotype is encoded in the DNA by the gene; this gene in the DNA will then undergo the process of transcription and the information in the gene will be transcripted into mRNA. The mRNA will then undergo the process of translation and the information in the mRNA will  be translated into a polypeptide chiefly by the action of ribosome. Thus, bacteria with different genotypes will have different protein which automatically means that they will have different phenotypes.
