Difference between osmosis, diffusion and plasmolysis

1 answer:

7 0

Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration of water particles to an area of low concentration of water particles across a semi permeable membrane

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration of particles to an area of low concentration of particles across a partially permeable membrane

Plasmolysis is the shrinking of the cytoplasm if a plant cell in response to diffusion of water out of the cell and into a high salt concentration solution as the cell membrane would pull away from the cell wall

Recall that Archaea and Bacteria used to be grouped in the same category. How were archaeons first distinguished from other prok

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

By difference in there ribosomal RNA sequence

Explanation:

Both bacteria and archaea lack membrane-bound nucleus and earlier both are considered in the same categories. Carl Woese was the scientist who discovered that bacteria and archaea are not similar.

Carl Woese and his lab members checked the ribosomal RNA in some archaeans and concluded that the archaeans are more closely related to eukaryotes than bacteria. After the study on archean Carl Woese classified the prokaryotes into two domains i.e., bacteria and archaea.

Therefore by difference in the ribosomal RNA sequence archaeons first distinguished from other prokaryotes.

What is the principle for dating materials using radioactive isotopes

nevsk [136]

It is based on a comparison between the observed abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope and its decay products, using known decay rates.

<h3>How are isotopes used in radioactive dating?</h3>

These isotopes decay within the rocks according to their half-life rates, and by choosing the fit minerals and measuring the relative amounts of parent and daughter isotopes in them, the date at which the rock crystallized can be determined.

Thus, It is based on a comparison between the observed abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope.
