1 answer:

6 0

This process is a technique of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of solvent particles. For example, water along its concentration gradient, from high to low concentration, via a semi-permeable membrane is changing the structure of the molecules in the potato strips.

Since the environment of the potato strips are in a sugar concentrate, the potato will lose its water content and so loses weight and the strips will be thinner and dryer.

Which trait makes the seaweed diffrent from the other orgainisms in the tree

QveST [7]

Answer:

Photosynthetic autotroph

Explanation:

Plants, algae/seaweed and some bacteria can use photosynthesis to turn light energy, carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The glucose, or sugar becomes the food for these organisms.

Since they can produce their own food, they are called producers, but they are also called autotrophs. "Auto" meaning self, and "troph" meaning nutrition. Therefore, the correct choice is: Photosynthetic autotroph.
