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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

Answer:

C- How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the movement of water across a membrane?

Explanation:

The variable in this experiment is the sucrose solutions (independent) and the change in mass of the dialysis bags (dependent). Therefore, the best question to be asked is how does the sucrose concentrations impact the change in mass due to water moving across the membrane.

kati45 [8]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The result of the dissociation of water is  the formation <span>of H- and OH+ ions. This process is reversible which means that it could form back to water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Mutation is an important mechanism for evolutionary change. Which type of mutations contribute to evolution?
rodikova [14]
Adaptations are the result of evolution in different living organisms. This process occurs amazingly through gene mutation but it takes a very long period in time. Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this are the bills of a bird and the fur of bears that they generally need for their survival; birds for hunting, and bears to protect them from low climate areas.
<span>
Functional or Behavioral adaptations refer to particular things that an organism or organisms do to survive. In the example above, behavioral adaptations that birds do is through certain bird calls and migration, while bears hunt during warmer seasons and hibernate during winter season. </span>

Answer:

The most common myths are:

- C0vid2019 vaccines cause autism  

- C0vid2019 vaccines may modify your DNA

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe

Explanation:

The most common myths associated with C0vid2019 vaccines are:  

1- C0vid2019 vaccines may cause autism: In 1998, Andrew Wakefield and colleagues published a controversial study in the Lancet where they suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine may cause autism in some children. However, it has been showed that this study was based on erroneous statements and therefore this publication was retracted.

2- C0vid2019 vaccine may modify your DNA: it has been suggested that vaccines based on viral vectors (e.g. adenoviruses) and mRNA vaccines may modify the DNA of cells. This statement is false because these technologies cannot alter the DNA sequence. These vaccines are based on the production of an mRNA sequence that is translated into a viral protein (spike protein) which triggers an immune response

- C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe: some people believe that C0vid2019 vaccines are unsafe because they were developed quickly. However, this statement is false because all vaccines (including C0vid2019 vaccines) need to follow rigorous safety standards to be approved by governmental agencies (i.e., they approved all clinical trials).
