Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is osmosis.
Osmosis is defined as the movement of solvent (like water) from a region where the concentration of solute is lower to a region where the concentration of solute is higher though a semipermeable membrane.
In other words, it is the water movement from an area where its ( water ) concentration is higher to an area where its concentration is lower.
This process does not require any energy as water is moving along the concentration gradient.
Answer:
Chemical weathering
Explanation:
Chemical weathering is the process when rain chemicals react with rocks and minerals. In this process, the rocks are weakened. This chemical happening provokes the chemical reaction in the rock or in the mineral.
Chemical weathering is a spontaneous process and it leads to a more stable state for natural materials under a given set of conditions.

Answer:
α = 0 if β= 0
Explanation:
If both species want to persist in the same environment and their niches are also over lapping then both of the co-efficient values should be equal. There are two possibilities on these values for persistence. One is that one should compromise to the change produced by the invasive specie and two is that the new specie should compromise if he wants to stay (<em><u>Assuming that there is no competition</u></em>). In this way their niches won't overlap to a greater extent and therefore better chances of survival for both.
