If you were stranded in an island, which would you drink, rain

water or seawater.
If I were left on an island and had to choose between the two types of water, I would drink the
rainwater since we all know that the taste of seawater is salty, which can make individuals thirstier than
they already are. We also know that sea water is dangerous to humans since it contains various minerals
and may come into contact with impurities such as animal excrement, which can harm people and infect
them. Rainwater is thus safer to drink and use because we are responsible for collecting and storing it in
a safe and clean manner; however, we must keep in mind that rainwater is not always safe to drink.

2. Why is the cell membrane described as a fluid-mosaic

- From my perspective and based on what I've seen so far in the videos, it's usually referred to
or characterized as a "fluid mosaic" since there are so many different sorts of molecules that
float along the phospholipids. Because of the molecules that make up the cell membrane,
we know that phospholipids are not fixed in terms of positioning, and they migrate and
exchange positions. As an example, we know that a cell membrane is fluid, as evidenced by
the two proteins inside that move around, and that it is mosaic in composition, as it is
containing proteins in a variety of patterns and forms, including membrane sizes.
3. Differences and Similarites
- Endocytosis and exocytosis are equal in terms of solid substance transportation techniques ,
in that they both use vesicles to transport large molecules across the membrane and both
require and demand energy. However, there are distinctions between these two when it
comes to their functions and applications within the cells. Exocytosis is the instinctive reflex
of solid materials out of a cell's cytoplasm via vesicles, whereas endocytosis is the active
movement of bulk materials into a cell's cytoplasm via vesicles. In a nutshell, endocytosis
transports materials, sometimes known as minerals, into the cell, whereas exocytosis
transports them out. Furthermore, when it comes to size, endocytosis reduces the size of
the cell membrane, but exocytosis accomplishes the opposite, which is to increase its size.
Finally, the vesicle is created in the Golgi apparatus and then bonds with the membrane in
exocytosis, whereas the vesicle is formed from the cell membrane and then enters the
cytoplasm in endocytosis.
