Question

For each question in this section, write a paragraph of at least three sentences. Explain the importance of scientific names. 37. Describe what happens in the process of osmosis. 38. Compare and relate how the cytoskeleton of a cell has a similar function to the walls of a building.​

Answer 1

Every recognized species on earth (at least in theory) is given a two-part scientific name. This system is called "binomial nomenclature." These names are important because they allow people throughout the world to communicate unambiguously about animal species.

37.Osmosis is the transport of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane that separates two solutions of differing solute concentration. During osmosis, the solvent moves from the solution that is lower in solute concentration to the solution that is higher in solute concentration

38. cytoskeleton is a structure that helps cells maintain their shape and internal organization. They also provide mechanical support that enables cells to carry out essential functions like division and movement. It relates to the walls of a building because just like how buildings are used as a support cytoskeleton provides support for cells. The proteins that make up the cytoskeleton are joined together, similar to walls. The cytoskeleton provides a framework for the cell, just as walls provide a framework inside a building.
