Yes. The gradient determines the direction of movement for particles. Diffusion and osmosis are both examples of passive transport Osmosis is the diffusion of water through semipermeable membranes like the cell membrane

The particles will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This direction of movement is described as movement *with* the concentration gradient.

Scientist claims that Elysia chlorotica, a species of Sea slug, is capable of photosynthesis. which of the following observation
joja [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - B) Elysia Chlorotica grows when exposed to light in the absence of other food sources

Explanation:

If placing Elysia Chlorotica in presence of the food sources in the presence or absence of light it still grows as normal. However, if placing in the light in absence of the food sources it should not grow if it is not able to perform photosynthesis but it does which means there is a photosynthesis process also involve in the Elysia.

Photosynthesis is the process that involves the production of energy and nutrition in presence of light with water and atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Independent Variable: Photosynthesis
Dependent Variable: Starch

Starch is a product of photosynthesis. Without photosynthesis, starch cannot form. Therefore starch is dependent on photosynthesis.

5:
Independent Variable: Temperature
Dependent Variable: Animal Metabolism

Animal metabolism will only be affected if the temperature of the room changes. Therefore animal metabolism is dependent on temperature.

9:
Independent Variable: Rainfall
Dependent Variable: Thickness of growth rings

The thickness of the tree's growth rings are determined by the amount of rainfall. Therefore the thickness of growth rings are dependent on rainfall.
