Chapter 3, Problem 5CT
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The large organelle that surrounds the second membrane.
Introduction:
Organelles are one of the important adaptations that eukaryotic cells have made to balance for the larger surface to volume ratio. It is the region of the cell that separates the cytosol from cell functioning.

Using the appropriate osmotic terms (hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic) describe what would happen to each organism in the following settings:
A single-celled freshwater protist is placed into a beaker of salt water.
A salt-water snail is mistakenly put into a freshwater tank.
A head of lettuce is placed soaked in a sink of salt water.
A carrot is soaked a sink of distilled, pure water.
You are using a computer program to design a new single-celled organism. Discuss why a flat, plate-like cell will be more efficient in transporting materials than a spherical, ball-like cell of the same volume.
