If scientists collect and store seeds samples this means that they want to have a collection of the species with the objective of being sure that the species won't disappear- with the objective of preserving the species.
If they collect seeds of many species, this means that they're interested in the diversity of species: the correct answer is (4) preserve the diversity of plant species
The right answer to this question is option A. Water moves in to dilute the sugar in the bear, causing it to swell.
That happens because there is a process involving water called osmosis. This process is pretty simple to understand. What happens is that the water will move from a place to another because of the concentration of solute. So, in this case, we have a higher concentration of solute inside the bear, and a lower one in the water, and for that, things need to be equal to reach the right balance between both concentrations. Once that happens, that water swells the gummy bear to balance these two them, and that's called osmosis.
Each human has 2 alleles and are called diploid organisms. We receive 1 allele from each biological parent.
Diffusion is the movement of the molecule (in gaseous form) from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration until equilibrium is achieved. The movement of these molecules is always down the gradient and the movement of the molecules is stochastic
Endocytosis is the uptake of large molecule, that can't pass through the pores of the cell membrane, by a cell. It involves the invagination of the cell membrane engulfing the materials and budding off into a vesicle. The materials are therefore internalized and are transported into the cell.
Exocytosis is the reverse of endocytosis. The material comes from inside of the cell and carried in a vesicle. The vesicle binds with the cell membrane and the part in contact with the cell membrane diffuses off. The contents of the vesicle are therefore emptied outside of the cell.
Phagocytosis is the ingestion of an organism such as bacteria by another cell such as a phagocytic immune cell or amoeba. The process of phagocytosis is similar to that of endocytosis. However, this process is aided by cell membrane receptors on the surface of the phagocyte that recognizes and binds the epitopes of the bacteria.
Osmotic pressure is the bare minimum pressure required to be exerted to prevent the movement of water, by osmosis, from a low concentrated solution to a higher concentrated solution through a semipermeable membrane.
