A) The crust and outer part of the mantle make up the lithosphere
Answer:
D. The presence of aquaporins (proteins that form water channels in the membrane) should speed up the process of osmosis.
Explanation:
Water moves in the cells through osmosis which means water moves from its higher concentration to lower concentration. In many animals and plants, water channels are also present which is called aquaporins which allow the water to move through it in and out of cell more quickly.
The rate of diffusion by channel proteins is higher than simple diffusion therefore the aquaporins speed up the process of osmosis. No ATP is required to transport the water through aquaporin channel proteins.
You end up with a polyploid condition. Not uncommon in organisms, especially plants, like angiosperms.
Look up "polyploidy".
Answer:
they compare fossils to other fossils to see if skeleton changes are observed in a species over time it indicates that there is genetic change going on within the species
