In which of the following ways is the function of the surface of a microsphere similar to the function of an actual cell membrane

a both make it possible for the conditions in the interior to be different from the conditions outside.

b both provide a barrier that keeps water from flowing across it so the interior remains dry.

c both separate the rna that forms in the interior from any rna that might form in the environment.

d both can actively move molecules into the interior or out into the surrounding environment.

Answer;

A Both make it possible for the conditions in the interior to be different from the conditions outside.

Explanation;

Groups of molecules called microspheres may have preceded the living cells of today. Microspheres are tiny bubbles filled with groups of large organic molecules; they can form under very specific conditions. These microspheres may be a lot like the vesicles formed from the organic compounds taken off of the modern meteorites. Microspheres are not cells, but they do share some characteristics with cells.

These bundles of molecules are able to maintain an internal environment different from the surroundings outside the bubble. They also have a simple way of storing and releasing energy.  They expand by absorbing additional molecules until they reach an unstable size, and then they split into smaller microspheres. This division is not true reproduction or cell division, but it may be a precursor to it.

not sure but try c two haploid cells
