What else can I help you with?
Is secretion the same as absorption?
No, secretion and absorption are different processes. Secretion is the release of substances from a cell or gland, while absorption is the uptake of substances into a cell or the body.
Process of cell absorption of water?
osmosis
What is a blood vessel called that is one cell thick for the absorption of nutrients and removal of wastes?
A capillary is a blood vessel that is one cell thick for the absorption of nutrients and removal of wastes.
Cell organelle that helps with cell absorption?
the transport of dissolved substances into cells to be used by the cells is
Why is the root hair cell a typical plant cell?
Because it has to perform absorption of water and minerals
What kind of barriers are cell membranes?
Cell Membranes are Semi Permiable barriers, allowing for the absorption of water.
What are the roots of a plant for?
it is for the absorption of water (by osmosis) and ions into the cell for photosyntesis
Why does the cell need a gateway?
To allow the absorption of nutrients and to secrete enzymes
Apical epithelial cell structures functions in the movement of materials across the surface of the cell?
Apical epithelial cell structures, such as microvilli and cilia, increase the surface area of the cell for absorption and movement of substances. Microvilli aid in absorption, while cilia facilitate the movement of materials along the cell surface, such as in the respiratory tract for mucus clearance.
Is a root hair cell a plant cell or an animal cell?
A root hair cell is a plant cell. It is a specialized cell found in the roots of plants that helps with water and nutrient absorption from the soil.
What life process is a root hair cell involved in?
A root hair cell is involved in the process of absorption, specifically in absorbing water and nutrients from the soil. This cell type has a large surface area that allows for increased absorption of water and minerals essential for the plant's growth and development.
What is the function of an micro-villus in an animal cell?
A microvillus is a small, finger-like projection on the surface of a cell that increases the cell's surface area for absorption of nutrients and molecules. They are commonly found in cells that specialize in absorption, such as in the intestines or kidneys.
