Osmosis only talks about water molecules

Diffusion talks everything other then the water molecules.

So,
Osmosis : water molecules travel from a region of a higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a partially permeable membrane via osmosis

Diffusion : Travels from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a partially permeable membrane via diffusion

What is photosynthesis, and what is it's main goal?

SpyIntel [72]

Answer: Photosynthesis is the process of when a plant makes it's own food, and the main goal is to convert solar energy to chemical energy.

Explanation: Plants use photosynthesis by taking the sunlight, to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Since plants can't move and consume other organisms, they use photosynthesis. The formula is: $6CO_2+6H_2O=C_6H_1_2O_6+6O_2$ .

Like I said, the main goal is converting solar energy to chemical energy then store the chemical energy for future use, for example it can be used for Chemical batteries, Natural gas, Heat, Food, etc.

A conservation easement would be best suited to offset which of the following threats to biodiversity?

Andre45 [30]

Habitat loss..The most harmful threat to biodiversity is the D. Habitat loss.
It's not easy to live in a place that you no longer have any means of living. If ones organism loss his habitat, chances are they will extinct because of the absence of their basic needs.

do members of the same phylum share more characteristics than members of the same class? Explain why or why not.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer: No, they don't.

Explanation:

In the taxonomic rank (Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species-- in that order) because phylum comes before class, it means it covers a broader spectrum of organisms. So, the traits are less specific. As you narrow it down, the members of the rank will share more and more traits in common.

Here is an example:

Humans are a member of the phylum chordata. All members of phylum chordata share the same 5 traits at some point in their lifetime. (Some only show the traits when they are embryos/larvae). These 5 characteristics share a tail, a notochord, a single, hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and an endostyle (thyroid).

So, now that we've established that humans are from phylum chordata, we can narrow it down to what class they are in. Humans are in the class mammalia, meaning they are mammals. All mammals not only share those 5 characteristics of phylum chordata, but they also share characteristics that unite them with each other. They all have hair, mammary glands in females, and are endothermic.

So, while members of the phylum chordata share at least 5 traits, members of the class mammalia share at least 8.

I hope that makes sense!

Mucous membranes provide a ____________ barrier at body openings.

butalik [34]

<span>Mucous membranes provide a mechanical barrier at body openings. They also line the respiratory, GI, urinary, and reproductive tracts. Mucous membranes secrete mucus, a slimy substance that traps pathogens. The membranes also have hair-like cilia.</span>
