PLEASE HELP ASAP IN A RUSH!!!!What do osmosis and diffusion have in common? A. Both are the net movement of randomly moving mole

cules that makes concentration nearty equal on both sides of a bilayer membrane. B. Both processes occur through a semipermeable membrane called a concentration gradient C. Both require the additional energy provided by an energy-carrying molecule, like ATP, to allow molecules to pass through the membrane. D. Both permit molecules of any kind, whether solute or solvent, to cross the bilayer membrane.

The right answer is A.

Osmosis is a phenomenon that considers only the exchanges between two liquid solutions of different concentrations in liquid phases separated by a semi-permeable wall. Osmosis is a phenomenon of diffusion of matter, demonstrated when solvent molecules pass through a semi-permeable membrane separating two solutions whose solute concentrations are different; the overall transfer of solvent is then from the least concentrated solution (hypotonic medium) to the most concentrated solution (hypertonic medium) to equilibrium (isotonic media).

The diffusion of matter, or chemical diffusion, refers to the natural tendency of a system to render uniform the chemical potential of each of the chemical species it contains.

Chemical diffusion is an irreversible transport phenomenon that tends to homogenize the composition of the medium.

During diffusion, when the concentration of molecules on both sides of a membrane is the same, the molecules will stop moving across the membrane

Further Explanation:

The transport of molecules can either be active or passive transport. Passive transport refers to the movement of the ions or other molecules across the membrane without any input of the energy.

Passive transport can be of 3 types:

  • Simple diffusion
  • Facilitated diffusion
  • Osmosis

The process of diffusion is movement of a molecule or substance from higher concentration of an area to lower concentration area. Mostly diffusion occurs in gases and liquid. This process is very important for living things. The concentration gradient is referred as difference in the concentration of substance. The process of Diffusion cease when the concentration of molecule or substance is equal in both region.

Osmosis refers to the spontaneous movement of the solvent particles via a semi-permeable membrane from a lower to the higher region of concentration, in the direction which tends to maintain equilibrium onto both sides.  

For a cell to live, the ion concentrations outside and inside the cell should be same. Also, the water content is limited because higher concentration of water can burst and swell the cell. Osmosis is crucial in the biological systems as the membranes are semi permeable. Also, focus on maintaining the equilibrium on both sides and prevent bursting of the cell.

Similarity between both the processes is that they allow the movement of solution or gases from high to low concentration. The concentration gradient acts in both processes to maintain equilibrium.

Difference between incomplete and complete ventilation? any 4​
Temka [501]

Answer:

Due to exchange of gases i.e. normal and abnormal.

Explanation:

The main difference between incomplete and complete ventilation is the occurrence of normal and abnormal exchange of gases. The mechanism in which the exchange of gas happens completely without any difficulty is called complete ventilation. It is the process in which the required amount of oxygen is inhaled or inspired and appropriate amount of carbon dioxide is exhaled out of the body while on the other hand, incomplete ventilation is a mechanism in which exchange of gases is not normal.

Which phrase best defines rocks? A. objects made of crystals, minerals, water, and air B. objects made of crystals and water C.
galina1969 [7]
A. objects made of crystals minerals water and air

Process of elimination-
there isn’t organic matter in rocks so D is out
they are made of minerals so B is out
some types of rock (pumice) have air bubbles in them so A is more likely than C
