1 answer:

6 0

A mutation can allow a organism to adapt to the environment and example can be the case of the peppered moth which has two variations a white colored one and a black colored one. The white colored ones were able to survive better that the darker ones because of how they were able to camouflage with the lichen located in the trees. However, after a while smoke particles that were released by industries darkened the trunk of the trees making the white moths visible and allowing the darker colored ones to survive. Another example can be on how organism can be resistant to bacteria this allows the animal to survive and reproduce offspring with the same mutation. I hope this helps...

The inference is that high sucrose concentrations caused more distilled water to move into the experimental bags.

<h3>What is osmosis?</h3>

It is the movement of water molecules from the region of high water potential (low solute concentration) to the region of low water potential (high solute concentration) through a selectively permeable membrane.

Thus, the higher the concentration of sucrose in the bag, the lower the water potential, and the more water molecules move into the bag.

Give an example of a stimulus, and explain how your nervous system and muscular system work together to respond to it.

zhuklara [117]

One example of stimulus is reacting to a hot pan. If you touch it, you immediately pull your fingers back. This is your nervous system sending alerts through your body, and to your muscular system. Your muscular system allows you to bend your arm, and move your fingers away from the hot pan.
:) Hope this helps!
