What else can I help you with?
What would happen if you made the solute concentration outside the Paramecium the same as the inside it?
If the solute concentration outside the Paramecium became equal to that inside, the environment would be isotonic. In this state, there would be no net movement of water into or out of the Paramecium, which would help maintain its shape and internal balance. However, the organism would still require mechanisms to manage waste and nutrient exchange, as diffusion would be minimal in an isotonic environment. Overall, the Paramecium would remain stable but might face challenges in maintaining metabolic processes effectively.
What structures do paramecia use for circulation?
Like the Sponge and other organisms with undeveloped internal circulation mechanisms, the Paramecium relies on water movement through the paramecium's pores to serve as a method of internal circulation. The paramecium has no need for a more complex system because of its size, and relying on diffusion of nutrients through water and tidal movement is more energy effective
Is a Paramecium an open system?
Yes, a Paramecium is an open system because it interacts with its environment by exchanging energy and matter. It takes in nutrients and releases waste products to maintain its internal environment.
When the concentration of external medium is equal to the concentration of internal medium of cell is called?
isotonic
Would there be a higher concentration of dissolved molecules in pond water or in a paramecium cell?
I can guess which sheet you are looking for and it is in the link below...Don't worry it is safe as I used it myself. The answer to this would be: 'There would be a greater concentration of dissolved molecules inside a cell.' Explanation: 'Water will move into Paramecium by osmosis because the concentration of water molecules is higher outside the Paramecium than inside.' Once you click on the link you want to press 'show in folder' and then 'open with' microsoft word or adobe reader or whatever you use. Just don't click open with your browser that you are using as that will just download more copies... Hope this helped!!! :) Sources: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CEgQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fintranet.cramlingtonlv.co.uk%2Fscienceweb%2Fc21_additional%2FCD_resources%2FB4%2Fword%2FGAB4_13.doc&ei=eB5cUqW4OcPA0QXs4oHQBA&usg=AFQjCNGg8oeHD1xBKOlc8KXkQzyX1-TuSQ&sig2=ebHZpElWLX6yfYJDvaKhPg&cad=rja
What is the muscle that normally exhibits arrhythmic contractions?
The heart muscle is the muscle that normally exhibits arrhythmic contractions. These contractions are controlled by the heart's internal pacemaker system, which generates electrical signals to regulate the heart rate and rhythm.
The best long-term solution to the problem maintaing a stable internal environment is for the paramecium?
to continuously regulate its internal conditions through processes such as osmoregulation and maintaining homeostasis. By adapting and responding to changes in the environment, the paramecium can ensure its long-term survival and health.
What is the maintenance of a relatively stable internal condition refereed to?
"homeostasis"
What is the mesothelium?
A membrane/sac that that protects the body's major internal organs and allows them freedom of movement (for example, lung contractions).
Is relatively constant internal environment a feature of living organisms?
yes
Why would a shark need to regulate its internal salt concentration?
hi
Why would a Paramecium need to remove water?
Paramecium need to regulate their internal water content to prevent bursting due to excessive water intake through osmosis. They remove water by contracting their contractile vacuole, which expels excess water from the cell to maintain internal balance, ensuring their survival in various environments.
