The process of osmosis is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
If 1% sugar solution is placed in pure water, then there would be a higher concentration of water molecules outside the cell compared to inside the cell. The solution outside the cell would be hypo-tonic (containing fewer solute molecules than inside the cell). Water will move into the cell by inward osmosis and the cell would then swell.
The color and texture of both things can be used for the upper middle and lower layers of the earth
A. the distribution of sand on an ocean floor
Answer:
Human genome has various replicons.
Explanation:
A replicon which is a unit of DNA, has potential to get replicated independently. So, the DNA replication occurs simultaneously at various replicons as a result of which human genome takes much less time than estimated to get replicated .
In contrast to this, prokaryotes like E.coli have only one origin of replication and thus one replicon due to which replication is restricted to once per cell cycle.
Certain fossils, called index fossils, help geologists match rock layers. To be useful as an index fossil, a fossil must be widely distributed and represent a type of organism that existed for a brief time period. Index fossils are useful because they tell the relative ages of the rock layers in which they occur.
