Nostrana [21]
Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Water tends to diffuse to the area with a higher concentration of solute. (Particles) In this case, Im assuming the fertilizer is the solute because it contains chemicals. Therefore, since water tends to diffuse to higher concentration of solute, the water in the grass will diffuse out to dilute the fertilizer on the surface of the grass. Without water, the grass will be dehydrated and shrivel up and die. Hopefully you find my answer helpful!

SVETLANKA909090 [29]
This would directly affect the epidermis because blisters will develop within the surface of the skin. Having blisters on the epidermis will decrease the function of the skin to be an effective barrier to disease. This is because blisters are open wounds that are prone to infection. As infection passes through these openings, it will affect the dermis and the other layers of the skin. Bullae is actually an auto-immune skin disease.

Marianna [84]

Reverse transcriptase use mRNA to form DNA apex

Reverse transcriptase is a broad family of enzymes that play a unique role in the flow of genetic information. The synthesis of DNA from an RNA template through reverse transcription produces complementary DNA. Reverse transcriptase use an RNA template and a short primer complementary to the 3' end of the RNA to direct the synthesis of the first strand complementary DNA, which can be used directly as a template for the Polymerase Chain Reaction.
