Please label this red onion cell image with a drop of water under the microscope. Include all relevant labels including: nucleus, cell wall, cell membrane, cytosol, vacuole, etc. Kindly explain why there's a large white stop at the top and bottom left. What conclusions do you draw from these results? Discuss this by referring to what type of solution this would be considered (eg. hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic).
Name a substance that is unique to acid fast cell walls.
A cell's normal surface area:volume ratio (SA:Vol) is 3:1. As a rest of unusual uptake of water, it expands in size so that its SA:Vol changes to 2:1. Which statement below best describes the cells response. 1) The cell divides because it has too much surface area for its enclosed volume. 2) The cell is able to take up more materials due the decreased surface area to volume ratio. 3)The cell divides because it can no longer adequately acquire the necessary resources for its survival. 4) The cell changes it cell membrane structure, halting the further intake of water.
Provide 3 hypotheses about the fluidity and mosaicity of the cell membrane. Write the hypotheses in "IF-THEN" statement form. Example: If the detection tests result in a change of color, appearance, or pH value of the solution, then there is a movement of glucose, starch, NaCl, or H+ ions across the semi-permeable dialyzing membrane bag, and it is a good model.
