Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through collisions between neighboring molecules. Think of a frying pan set over an open camp stove. The fire's heat causes molecules in the pan to vibrate faster, making it hotter.

Which process is characterized by the movement of particles from an area of a high concentration to an area of low concentration
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

Passive transport does not require energy for movement in and out of a place or across a membrane e.g a cell.

Osmosis uses passive transport to move materials in and out of a cell by setting up concentration gradient through a distance.

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of molecules or particles of a solution from an area of higher concentration to that of lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane e.g plasma membrane. As we can see, the difference in concentration is the drive for the transport between the two medium. When the concentration is the same, there won't be any movement again.

Haploid cell with half number of chromosomes as parent cell. Result of meiosis - sperm (male) and egg (female)
IgorC [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - true.

Explanation:

In the meiosis cell division, there are four cells present with n number of chromosomes which means these cells generated from by the meiosis have a half number of the chromosome as their parents. This is the reason this type of cell division is known as a reduction division.

These cells that are produced are sex cells or reproductive cell sperm in male and egg in female all have n number of chromosome number as they have to fuse to form a zygote.

Which indicators are living and non-living?
bulgar [2K]
Living indicators are species that are sensitive to changes in the environment. For example air pollution can be monitored by looking at lichen, which are sensitive to sulphur dioxide in the air. The number of lichen at a particular location indicates how clear the air is. Similarly, mayfly larvae are good indicators for water pollution because they're sensitive to the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.

Non-living indicators are things like satellites which can measure the temperature of the sea surface, weather stations that measure atmospheric temperature, rain gauges to measure rainfall, and dissolved oxygen meters to measure concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.
