What is the easiest way to define osmosis?
The movement of water across a semipermeable membrane.
The easiest way to tell a suspention from a solution is by?
The easiest way to tell the difference is by observing weather the particle of the solid are clumping at the bottom (suspension) or dispersed evenly throughout the liquid (solution)
What particle has almost no mass?
The lightest subatomic particle is the electron.
Which type of radiation is easiest to shield?
The type of radiation that is easiest to shield are alpha particles. They are also the least harmful. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium nucleus.
What does the animal cell have in it?
A vacuole, nucleos, cell membrane, lysosomes,nucleus, nucleolus, centrosome, cytoplasm, nuclear membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes, Golgi body and smooth and rough E.R. (endoplasmic reticulum) p.s. i am 13 and this is one of the easiest questions to answer
What kind of molecules can easily pass through a cell membrane?
Small, Non-polar molecules. If the molecule is polar, it sticks to both sides of the membrane, and has to go through selective routes. The easiest to get through is the Non-polar (oxygen and carbon).
How does the cell membrane support cells in getting needed nutrients?
Cell membranes have a number of ways that needed nutrients can pass through. The first and easiest way is by diffusion where certain particles are able to pass through the membrane directly where the are in short supply. Other particles, because they don't mix well with the lipids that make up the membrane can pass through certain protein channels in a process called facilitated diffusion. In a closely related process to diffusion where particles aren't able to cross the membrane but water can, osmosis takes place. Sometimes when cell need to move nutrients into already crowded areas they use energy in a process called active transport to kind force particles across the membrane where they don't want to go. A very special type of active transport called phagocytosis occurs when a cell wants to take in particles that are simply too large to pass through the membrane so the membrane actually stretches out and engulfs the particle in a vesicle where it can be dismantled into smaller components inside the cell. I hope that helps!
What is the simplist atom?
Hydrogen-1. It is a single proton and a single electron.
What is the easiest skillcape to get?
Fletching is the easiest skillcape
