It was a life changing event. Around 66 million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous period, an asteroid struck Earth, triggering a mass extinction that wiped out the dinosaurs and around 75% of all species.
Dinosaurs roamed the Earth in the Mesozoic Era, which is divided into the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods. They first arose during the Triassic period about 245 million years ago. Dinosaurs first appeared in the Middle Triassic and became the dominant terrestrial vertebrate in the Late Triassic or Early Jurassic, occupying this position for about 150 to 135 million years until their demise at the end of the Cretaceous. This era is popularly known as the "Age of Reptiles" and for good reason: reptiles, and particularly dinosaurs, were the dominant terrestrial vertebrate animals at the time. The PT extinction was the most severe in Earth's history, and was likely driven by intense volcanic eruptions and associated rapid climate change. This extinction decimated many early groups of reptiles and amphibians, and may have created environmental space for dinosaurs and other new groups to evolve.

Answer:
Taking into account the principle of osmosis, the question that best addresses experimental design is <em>How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the movement of water across a membrane?</em>
Explanation:
The experimental design of the student, made with dialysis bags and sucrose at different concentrations should recreate the principle of osmosis, of importance in living beings for organic homeostasis.
Osmosis consists of the movement of water - through a semi-permeable membrane - from a less concentrated solution to a higher concentration solution, following a gradient, to achieve balance.
The student will observe in his experiment that water moves from the solution with less sucrose concentration to the higher concentration of sugar. Beakers with the highest concentration of sucrose will have the highest weight, due to the increase in liquid volume.
How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the movement of water across a membrane?
The experiment shows that:
- The water from the beaker with less sucrose concentration moved -through the dialysis tubes and the membrane- to the beaker containing the most concentrated sucrose.
- Different sucrose concentrations will attract different amounts of water, which influences the final weight of each container.
With this experiment the principle of osmosis is confirmed, where the concentration of a solute determines the amount of water that passes through a semipermeable membrane -following a concentration gradient- until equilibrium is reached.

A lake is an example of a littoral zone and a spring is an example of a discharge zone. The littoral zone is a part of the sea or lake that is close to the shore. It extends on high water mark to shoreline that has been submerged. It allows as well aquatic plants to grow. Groundwater flows until it reaches the discharge zone in which the water is above the surface of the land.
