Why does a cell shrink when placed in an environment with a high sugar content?

Water moves down a concentration gradient, where it goes from an area of high concentration to a low concentration. This is a process called osmosis which does not require any energy. When a cell is placed i...

Draw and label a diagram to show the effects on the equilibrium market position to show the effects of a hot sunny day on the market for ice creams.

Demand Shift to the Right:As we can see on the diagram this increase in demand for ice-cream will cause the demand to make a full shift to the right (reference positions X-Y). This will mean that the equilib...

Given y=2x(x^2-1)^5, show that dy/dx = g(x)(x^2-1)^4 where g(x) is a function to be determined.

y=2x(x 2 -1) 5 --> y=uv, where u=2x; v=(x 2 -1) 5 --> thus product rule required.u'=2v'=10x(x 2 -1) 4 Product rule: dy/dx = uv' + v'uTherefore: dy/dx = 2x(10x(x 2 -1) 4 ) + 2(x 2 -1) 5 g(x) = (22x 2 -2)
