Answer:
D. The presence of aquaporins (proteins that form water channels in the membrane) should speed up the process of osmosis.
Explanation:
Water moves in the cells through osmosis which means water moves from its higher concentration to lower concentration. In many animals and plants, water channels are also present which is called aquaporins which allow the water to move through it in and out of cell more quickly.
The rate of diffusion by channel proteins is higher than simple diffusion therefore the aquaporins speed up the process of osmosis. No ATP is required to transport the water through aquaporin channel proteins.
Scientists most often produce new genetic variations of organisms by causing mutations with radiation or chemicals and then selectively breeding in order to emphasize the desired traits in the new variations. The Dachshund is an example of this. By breeding two dogs with a similar mutation that caused student legs and elongated backs breeders were able to create a new variation not found in nature.
TRUE.
Infection is the invasion or colonization of the body by potentially pathogenic microorganisms.
Answer:
B and D
Explanation:
Biodiversity comes from having multiple types of organisms. This also allows different organisms to eat and create nutrients that is needed by all other organisms in the ecosystem.
