Question
Chapter 5.5, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: The results of the experiment support the proposed hypothesis of the experiment.
Introduction: The passive transports involve the downhill movement of molecules without the expenditure of energy. Very often more than one transport mechanism is involved in the transport of a solute. Hence, the overall rate of the transported solute maybe higher than individual rates of movement of solute.

Do you consider this decision effective? Why and why not? Explain, in your answer, the effect of changing the zone tension on the homeostasis capacity of the bacteria you use and their ability to withstand the osmotic pressure of the new surrounding solvent. In your answer, state how osmosis works and state the degree of tension of the solution (isotonic, hypertonic or hypotonic). Explain why osmosis is really just a special case of facilitated diffusionarrow_forwardVOLUTION CONNECTION This chapter explains how theemergent properties of water contribute to the suitabilityof the environment for life. Until fairly recently, scientistsassumed that other physical requirements for life includeda moderate range of temperature, pH, atmospheric pressure,and salinity, as well as low levels of toxic chemicals. Thatview has changed with the discovery of organisms knownas extremophiles, which have been found flourishing inhot, acidic sulfur springs, around hydrothermal ventsdeep in the ocean, and in soils with high levels of toxicmetals. Why would astrobiologists be interested in studyingextremophiles? What does the existence of life in suchextreme environments say about the possibility of life onother planets?arrow_forward
