Concept explainers

Communication

Communication is a method of transferring information between two persons or organisms. Communication is possible using mutually understood behaviors such as signs, symbols, or language. In the year 1980, S. F. Scudder proposed communication theory. According to his ideas, all living beings on the earth communicate, but the methods of communication differ. Communication skills are now part of soft skills.

3. The diagram to the left represents the distribution of some molecules inside and outside of an artificial cell over a period of time. Which statement is best supported by the diagram? (1) Oxygen molecules entered the cell over time by active transport. (2) Water molecules are too large to enter or leave the cell, so they reMained where they were at the start of the investigation. (3) Protein molecules are kept inside of the cell because the cell needs them. (4) The protein molecules are too large to diffuse out of the cell.

Why are ion channels necessary to transport ions into or out of a cell? Ions are too large to diffuse through the membrane. Ions are charged particles and cannot diffuse through the hydrophobic interior of the membrane. Ions do not need ion channels to move through the membrane. Ions bind to carrier proteins in the bloodstream, which must be removed before transport into the cell.
