1. why do the receptor proteins need to be on the outside of the cell? 2. why can some molecules like water and glucose easily pass through the membrane but macro molecules like starch cannot?

1) receptor proteins need to b on the outside of a cell so the cell can absorb the nutrients it needs. receptors have a specific job, membranes are semi-permeable meaning it doesn't absorb nutrients that are not needed 4 a cell to function in a healthy individual.

2) water and glucose are what most cells need to produce energy to function and produce ATP, which allows the bloodstream to deliver nutrients to the entire body.

The scientific method is a series of steps followed by scientific investigators to answer specific questions about the natural world. it involves making observations, formulating a hypothesis, and conducting scientific experiments.the steps of the scientific method are •observation-the first step of the scientific method involves making an observation about something that interests you•question-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •hypothesis-once you've made your observation, you must formulate a question about what you have observed. •experiment-once you've developed a hypothesis, you must design and conduct an experiment that will test it.•results-the results are where you report what happened in the experiment. •conclusion-the final step of the scientific method is developing a conclusion.i hope that this you : )
