As powerful as diffusion is, cells sometimes must move materials in the opposite direction—against a concentration difference. This is accomplished by a process known as active transport. As its name implies, active transport requires energy.

Answer:
The above paragraphs describes that how salt- and fresh-water fish regulates their osmoregulation. Hence, the correct answer would be c. have adapted to deal with osmosis.
Osmosis is the process by which solvent's molecule move from region of low concentration (hypo-tonic) to the region of high concentration (hyper-tonic) through a semi-permeable membrane.
In sea-water fishes, the body fluids are hypo-tonic to the surrounding water and thus water is kept moving out of their gills. In order to prevent the excess water loss they need to drink water constantly and excrete concentrated urine.
In contrast, fresh-water fishes body fluids are hyper-tonic to surrounding water and hence, water keeps entering in their body through gills. So, in order to prevent excess dilution they absorb salt from surrounding with the help of gills and also their bodies reabsorb salt from urine.
The process by which living things produce more organisms like themselves is the reproduction. There are two types of reproduction namely; asexual reproduction where only one parent is involved, and sexual reproduction that needs two parents, such that the cells of the two parents (egg and sperm) join, resulting to a unique offspring since they have characteristics from each parent are passed down/combined.
Answer:
Fats, oils, waxes, and sterols.
Explanation:
Lipids are made mainly of fats, oils, waxes, and sterols.
They also have 3 fatty molecules.
