“Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration down the concentration gradient.”

Diffusion is the process of movement of molecules under a concentration gradient. It is an important process occurring in all living beings. Diffusion helps in the movement of substances in and out of the cells. The molecules move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration until the concentration becomes equal throughout.

Liquid and gases undergo diffusion as the molecules are able to move randomly.

Example:

Take water in a beaker. Add a few copper sulfate crystals in one place and leave it as it is for some time without disturbing it. After some time we can see that the beaker contains a uniformly coloured solution. Here, both water and copper sulfate diffuse independently. With this experiment, we can infer that solutes move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration in a solution.

What is the role of renin in the secretion of aldosterone?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Aldosterone is a hormone which is produced by the adrenal glands which are present above the kidneys. The role of aldosterone is to regulate the blood pressure. It causes the reabsorption of water and salts into the bloodstream during the kidney filteration process. Hence, maintains the blood volume, restors blood pressure and salt level.

Renin is an enzyme. It facilitates chemical reactions which stimulates the synthesis of angiotension II, it directs the synthesis of aldosterone.

In winter many dogs grow a thick coat of fur. This is an example of
vesna_86 [32]
The answer is letter A. 

Dogs grow a thick coat fur during winter because they are adapting to change. Adaptations are the result of evolution in different living organisms. This process occurs amazingly through gene mutation but it takes a very long period in time. Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life.

Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this is the thick coat of fur that dogs naturally grow to protect themselves from the change of the weather.

The algae, walleye pollock, and orca populations could have all affected the moon jelly population. What additional evidence do
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

  • There is a balance of resources, shelter, and number of species inside the region which is under consideration. While, the moon jelly's population may increase due to lack of presence of the competition for the resources that are present by means of other consumers of zooplankton that would enhance the growth of the moon jelly's.
  • Along, with that the decrease in the number of predators which are mainly the big marine animals inside the region that would increase the level or growth of the moon jelly's.
