Answer;

(3) the concentration of the substance is greater outside the cell than inside

Explanation;

-When a substance is of low molecular weight and has a higher concentration of the substance outside the cell as opposed to inside the cell then it is most likely to diffuse into a cell.

-Diffusion involves the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, therefore if molecules are highly concentrated outside the cell then they are likely to move into the cell. Additionally, the size or the molecular weight of the molecules determines whether they will move into to the cell as the cell membrane only allows movement of materials in or out of the cell selectively.

Mkey [24]

I think the statement “the human digestive system is very efficient at squeezing everything it can out of any food?" refers to the way the stomach is good at absorbing the wanted nutrients and keeping them in the body, while disposing of the unwanted waste and toxins. The biomolecules are broken down to preserve only certain nutrients within the molecules.

A new machine for harvesting corn will allow rows to be planted only fifteen inches apart, instead of the usual thirty inches. C
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

A) With the closer spacing for the rows, the growing  corn plants will quickly form a dense canopy of leaves, which will, by shading the ground, minimize the need for costly weed control and irrigation.

Explanation:

If the space among plants is less, the shadow that they are going to produce is going to reduce the need of water, so they production will rise and the cost to maintain the crops will be less, so the producer can double the profits.

Describe the advantage of an excretory system for terrestrial animals
yaroslaw [1]
The excretory system allows animals to remove metabolic waste their bodies. Many of these substances are potentially toxic. in Mammals nitrogenous toxins like urea are expelled through liquid urine while in reptiles and birds the nitrogenous compounds are expelled as a solid. This allows birds and reptiles to use less water in the processes of metabolism.
