Osmosis involves moment of movement of water across the cell membrane to maintain the concentration gradient

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The exchange of solute or the solvent particles across a semipermeable membrane to match up the concentration gradient takes place through different processes of which the most common is the osmosis and the diffusion.

The osmosis involves movement of solvent or water from a low concentrated solution to a high concentration solution in order to equalize the concentration gradient on both the sides, diffusion is the movement of solute molecules.

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Non-coding DNA regions play important roles in regulating transcriptional activity by encoding different types of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), acting as scaffold attachment regions, acting as enhancer specific regions, etc.

Explanation:

Historically, it had been believed that non-coding DNA sequences were 'junk DNA' since they don't encode for proteins (beyond the sequences that are transcribed into functional non-coding RNAs, i.e., transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA). However, in the last years, it has been shown that non-coding DNA sequences play critical roles in regulating gene expression and genome function. For example, evolutionary conserved non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) with regulatory roles on gene expression such as, for example, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have been mapped in non-coding DNA sequences, thereby evidencing the functional significance of these regions. In consequence, the conservative nature of certain non-coding DNA sequences evidence that mutations in such regions may have significant deleterious effects, and thereby they could have a negative impact on the fitness of the individual.
