How do solute concentrations affect the volume of a cell?
IF you dilute an animal cell it will swell (plant cells [with cell walls] are immune).
Why do plant and animal cells respond differently and similarly to the same solutions?
Cellular activity is controlled by [solution bound] Hormones.
How are animal cells different from plant cells-?
Animal cells are different from plant cells in that the cell wall of animal cells is not made up of cellulose.
Why do animal cells look different from plant cells?
Animal cells are shaped differently from plant cells because they have different functions and have different parts like it doen't have the cell wall and the plant does.
Names and information about different types of animal and plant cells?
dog
What is the ideal osmotic environment for an animal cell?
Hypotonic
How are animals similar to or different from one another?
Animals are both similar and different from one another, they are similar because they could be carnivore's, herbivore's or omnivore's. But they are different because they could live in a different habitat, act differently, eat differently or hunt differently. It could depend on the breed or age of the animal.
Starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store what in order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant?
In order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant, starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store glucose. Cells require sugar or glucose as a source of energy for many different functions.
Can animals take the same medications as humans?
In general, no - animal medications are formulated at different concentrations and with different carrier molecules than those formulated for human use.
Do plant cells have a larger vacuole than animal cells?
To maintain high osmotic potential
Do animal ears work differently?
Although some of the physical structures of animal ears are similar to humans, the hearing range of the animal causes their ears to work differently.
What cell is osmotic equilibrium with their surrounding environments because if they swell or shrink their membranes will rupture?
animal cells
What is the reason for high phosphate concentrations in water?
excessive fertilization and farm animal waste
What is it called when animal cells burst?
When animal cells burst it's called lysis.
Does Colombia have one of the worlds most highest concentrations for plant and animal species?
yes it does because the sun is giving Colombia the right amount of sunlight so this means that Colombia has the most highest concentrations.
What does carbon dioxide do for any kind of animal?
It is harmless in small amounts. However in high concentrations it can cause asphyxia.
How do solute concentrations affect the volume of a cell?
IF you dilute an animal cell it will swell (plant cells [with cell walls] are immune).
