Answer:  b. the number of sources of pollution

The point source pollution can be defined as the pollution whose source of origin can be traced back and the further pollution can be prevented. For example sewage drainage in the pond. The non-point source pollution is the one whose source of origin can be many and cannot be traced back to a single source. For example rain water causing surface runoff which is transferring pesticides, organic matter, sewage water in the water body.

The principle difference between point source and nonpoint source water pollution is the number of sources of pollution. In the point source pollution the number of sources of pollution can be determined and traced back whereas in the nonpoint source pollution number of sources of pollution remains undetermined.

Water can move freely through the membrane from a higher to a lower concentration in a transportation process called _____.
nignag [31]

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is osmosis.

Osmosis is defined as the movement of solvent (like water) from a region where the concentration of solute is lower to a region where the concentration of solute is higher though a semipermeable membrane.

In other words, it is the water movement from an area where its ( water ) concentration is higher to an area where its concentration is lower.

This process does not require any energy as water is moving along the concentration gradient.
