Answer: a. rna interference.

Rna interference <span> was known by other names like  <span>co-suppression  because it </span>has become evident that RNAi has immense potential in inhibiting desired genes  by neutralizing targeted mRNA molecules</span> Two types of small ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules that are central to RNA interference are  miRNA and <span>siRNA. </span>

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

I think she should try the experiment one set with fertilizer, and one without. The negative control group would be the set of rose bushes grown without the fertilizer, but under the exact same conditions as the experimental group. Then, if a difference is seen you can be sure it's accurate, since you tested with and without fertilizer under the same conditions. Sorry if i am wrong, I am not completly sure about this one. Again I might be wrong so sorry in advance.

Epsom salts are solutes that do not pass through cell membranes. If one soaks in a hypertonic solation of Epsom salts, which of
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The net movements of water from the region of higher water potential  to the region of low water potential through  a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. It is a form of diffusion which involves the transport of water molecules.

In this present scenario  water molecules  pass through the selectively permeable membrane from higher water potential in the body, to lower water potential but high solute potential (Epsom salts). The later is called an hypertonic solution,this is because it has higher solute potential ,thus higher salt concentration than the surrounding medium,therefore water pass by osmosis into the Epsom salts.

If one is placed in this solution,the cells shrink as they lose water to the more concentrated Epsom.(hypertonic solution)

However, the body homeostatic mechanism through the kidney  ensure re-absorption of fluid back to the body from the DCT  and CT, via  anti diuretic hormone to preserve the cell and the person.
