Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable (or differentially permeable or selectively permeable) membrane. The cell membrane, along with such things as dialysis tubing and cellulose acetate sausage casing, is such a membrane. The presence of a solute decreases the water potential of a substance.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

-Reporter gene.

Explanation:

A reporter gene can be defined as a gene, which is used as an indicator to check uptake or expression of gene by a cell or organism. It is attached to a regulatory sequence of a different gene of interest in cell culture, bacteria, plants, or animals by the researchers and used to confer its expression in that organism or cell.

Gene for GFP (green fluorescent protein) is an example of reporter gene, due to which cells that express gene of interest emit green color under blue light.

As in given experiment, target gene (gene for rhodopsin) is attached with gene for GFP, it represents an example of reporter gene.

Thus, the correct answer is 'reporter gene.'

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Animals and plants  preform a process known as cellular respiration.

This process is:

oxygen+glucose--> carbon dioxide+ water + ATP (energy)

If a plant was placed in this container with carbon dioxide and oxygen, it would preform cellular respiration, but it would also use another process called photosynthesis:

carbon dioxide+water+light energy-->oxygen+glucose

Since a plant performs both, the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen wouldn't change a lot.

However, if this was an animal, the carbon dioxide levels would increase. An animal would inhale oxygen, use it in cellular respiration, and then exhale carbon dioxide as a waste product.

Therefore, the correct answer is D: increase in carbon dioxide levels.
