The figure shows a classic experiment that demonstrates the principle of osmosis. The left side of the U-tube is filled half-way

with 10% red sugar water. Into the tube on the right, distilled water is poured until it is even with the red sugar water. A semi-permeable membrane is placed in the brown area. Predict what will happen in the U-tube after several hours.

The left side of the tube will remain red, but rise in volume, as the right side of the tube falls in volume. The distilled water will dilute the sugar water.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

According to the figure elaborated here, when the left side of the tube that is filled with 10% red sugar water, and the right side of the tube filled with distilled water pour into it, then the left side of tube rise in volume but remain as red colored. But the right side of the tube will fall in volume and the sugar water will be diluted.

Osmosis is actually the a process by which molecules of a solvent lead to move through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated solution

For some invertebrates that live in water, the sense of taste and the sense of smell are identical. Why do you think separate or
Flura [38]
The answer relates to the medium in which the sensed molecules travel. On land, animals detect a scent through organic molecules transported in the air. Land animals will experience a taste sensation by grasping an object using their mouth. Here, the organic molecules providing the sensation are transported by saliva or organic fluids of the object. So on land, there is a clear distinction between molecules transported in the wind and those that can be tasted. Water is a much more dense medium than air, and can carry small and large organic molecules, unlike air. Therefore, aquatic animals have little need for olfactory organs as all molecules can be 'tasted' from the water.

What are the 1st and 2nd line of defence of plant against pathogens?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: These may be:

  • physical defenses  (1st line)
  • chemical defenses (2nd line)

Explanation:

Plants employ several methods in order to defend themselves from pathogens. These may be physical defenses or chemical ones. Several have adaptations to their surfaces that prevent the entry of pathogens, called physical barriers such as

  • thick waxy cuticles
  • thorns, which are modified plant branches
  • spines, which are modified plant leaves
  • gall production at infected sites to prevent pathogenic spread

Chemical defenses include the production or secretion of:

  • defensins
  • antimicrobials such as tannins or resins
  • gum at areas facing pathogenic attacks
