The term applied when water passes through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration is called osmosis. Osmotic pressure is defined as the amount of external pressure that is required to stop the net movement of the solution across the semi permeable membrane. In terms of biology, osmosis has great importance as most of the membranes in our body are semi permeable. Permeability depends on several factors such as charge, solubility, solute size and chemistry. Osmosis is the process that provides the primary means through which water travels in and out of the cells.

False, the description is incorrect.
The only right answer is oil or lipid or fats. These lipid macromolecules are the only substance needed in order for these vitamins A, D E and K to be absorbed by the cell and be used in many cellular activities.
Answer:
6. The number of protons of the atoms
7.The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and in a neutral atom the number of electrons
8. The atomic mass of elements equals number of protons plus number of neutrons
9. Protons and neutrons
10. Electrons
11. 8+9=17
12. 20+21=41
13. 10
Explanation:
<span>D. In a study of the effect of lawn fertilizer on the health of a
backyard pond, biologists grow two colonies of duckweed in a large flask to
represent pond ecosystems. </span>
The scientific design in which has limitations
due to oversimplification is the statement “in a study of the effect of lawn
fertilizer on the health of a backyard pond, biologists grow two colonies of
duckweed in a large flask to represent pond ecosystems”. Oversimplification is
an overview and generalization of a statement to miscomprehension,
misperception or even error. It overlaps the true statement.
