When is osmosis used by
cells to move water across a selectively permeable
membrane?

A. Osmosis is used by cells when large molecules pass freely across the selectively permeable membrane.

B. Osmosis is used by cells to create equilibrium when large molecules can't pass through the membrane.

C. Osmosis is constantly in process inside of a cell, regardless of equilibrum.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Osmosis moves water from the part of the membrane with less solutes to the part with more solutes. This will continue until the cell or whatever it is reaches equilibrium.

1. deciduous trees lose their leaves seasonally and include trees such as ----- and ----.

2. conifer leaves are generally thin and needle-like, while seeds are contained in cones. conifers include ---- and -----.

3. evergreens are plants that maintain their leaves in all seasons and include trees such as ---, ---, and ---.

4. hardwoods reproduce using flowers and have broad leaves; hardwoods include trees such as ---, ---, and ---.

Answer:

1. deciduous trees lose their leaves seasonally and include trees such as elm and maple.

2. conifer leaves are generally thin and needle-like, while seeds are contained in cones. conifers include pine and cedar.

3. evergreens are plants that maintain their leaves in all seasons and include trees such as Pine, Cedar, and Mango.

Explanation:    

Deciduous trees:  These plant species lose their leaves every year during the cold and dry autumns and winters, as it is the most limiting period over the year. Foliage resprout again during the warmer wet season when it rains more often, during spring and summer. Template forest biome characterizes for having deciduous trees such as oaks, maple, or elm, among other phanerophyte species.

1. deciduous trees lose their leaves seasonally and include trees such as elm and maple.

Conifer: Correspond to the gymnosperm group. They are perennial, vascular, evergreen, woody plants. They characterize for having a straight trunk with secondary growth and no vessels in the xylem tissue. Their branches usually develop horizontally, with needle-like leaves growing on them, unisexual flowers, and seeds included in a cone.

 2. conifer leaves are generally thin and needle-like, while seeds are contained in cones. conifers include pine and cedar.

Evergreens: Perennial plants that keep their green leaves the whole year.  These are the opposite of the deciduous trees. Tropical forests characterized for having these broadleaf plant species, such as mango, that are favored by the environmental conditions as precipitations are abundant and the average temperature is elevated most of the year. Also, many evergreen plants are typical of the boreal forest.  Pines, cypress, cedar, and sequoia are examples of these last ones.

3. evergreens are plants that maintain their leaves in all seasons and include trees such as Pine, Cedar, and Mango.

Hardwoods: Angiosperms. Xylem with vessels. These species present a high diversity in shape, textures, and sizes. They might reproduce asexually or sexually by producing flowers, fruits, and seeds. Also, they might be either evergreen or deciduous.

4. hardwoods reproduce using flowers and have broad leaves; hardwoods include trees such as Elm, Maple, and Mango.

.. Which pair of organisms is most likely to have adaptations in common?

Answers

Answer: the 1st one

Explanation:

A grassland predator and prey, such as a cheetah and a zebra. Therefore correct option is (A).

What organisms have common adaptations?

The pair of organisms that is most likely to have adaptations in common is a pair of organisms that share similar environmental pressures or ecological niches. Organisms that occupy similar habitats, have similar diets, or face similar challenges are more likely to evolve similar adaptations over time.

For example, predatory animals such as lions, tigers, and leopards have evolved similar adaptations such as sharp claws, powerful jaws, and keen senses to help them catch prey. Similarly, desert-dwelling animals such as camels, kangaroo rats, and fennec foxes have adaptations such as the ability to conserve water, tolerate heat, and dig burrows in sandy soil to survive in their arid environments.

October 1, 2017 marks 27 years since the beginning of the Human Genome
Project. The goal of the group was to map the entire 3 billions bases and
80,000 genes in the human genome. On April 14, 2003, it was announced
that the goal was accomplished. Using this information, scientists have been
able to predict the risk of genetic diseases and understand the process of
inheritance. Which of the following statements best describes the process of
using the genetic code to produce polypeptides (proteins)?
Translation is used to produce a strand of RNA and proteins from a single strand of DNA.
O RNA produces a strand of DNA through transcription, then the DNA builds a protein molecule
through translation
O A single strand of DNA is used to make mRNA using translation, then the mRNA provides the
template for producing a protein through transcription
O A single strand of DNA is used to produce mRNA through transcription, then translation provides
the code for bonding amino acids to make a protein.

Answers

Answer:

The last one. A single strand of DNA is used to produce mRNA through transcription, then translation provides the code for bonding amino acids to make a protein.

Explanation:

Educated guess, but also. Translation is the process by which mRNA is decoded and translated to produce a polypeptide sequence, otherwise known as a protein. This method of synthesizing proteins is directed by the mRNA and accomplished with the help of a ribosome, a large complex of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins.

What is your opinion on the use of stem cells, obtained from fertilized eggs or early stage embryos

Answers

I believe that it can help in the future. Who knows embryonic stem cells may lead to new, and more effective treatments for serious human ailments and alleviate the suffering of thousands of people!

USE OF STEM CELL:

The first attempts to turn mature cells back into pluripotent stem cells involved a process called cloning. In the cloning process, an egg is fertilized in the lab, and right after fertilization, the DNA is removed from the egg.These stem cells come from embryos that are three to five days old. These are pluripotent (ploo-RIP-uh-tunt) stem cells, meaning they can divide into more stem cells or can become any type of cell in the body. This versatility allows embryonic stem cells to be used to regenerate or repair diseased tissue and organs.Despite the potential benefit of using human ES cells in the treatment of disease, their use remains controversial because of their derivation from early embryos.

How might environmental manipulation of a crop have unexpected consequences? a. The new crop may require more water than the original. b. The crop may harm the environment. c. The yield may be reduced. d. All of the above Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answers

Answer:

D all of the above

Explanation:

just took the test

Environmental manipulation can have both types of consequences - beneficial as well as adverse. At times, these changes can be unexpected too. The correct option is D.

What negative effect does environmental manipulation of a crop have?

The crop can have a need for more water as compared to the original if there would be a change in the soil, region or even climate of the crop. An increase in the temperature can affect the availability of water to the crop.

Changes in the soil can result in variation in the availability of minerals required for the growth of plants. This can cause improper health condition of the crop, which will ultimately decrease its yield.

Overuse of fertilizers and pesticides can affect the quality of the soil and also have a negative impact on the crop. It can also be passed on to the consumers of the crop due to bioaccumulation.

Thus, all of the mentioned statements are correct. Hence, the correct option is D.
