Answer:
Osmosis and diffusion are both forms of passive transport because they require no energy. Gummy Bears are made up of gelatin, starch and sugar. The gelatin acts like a semi-permeable membrane. Inside the membrane the gummy bear is full of starch and sugar (mostly sugar).
Explanation:
Answer:
Blood Cells
Explanation:
The isotonic solution allow the cells to move water and nutrients in and out of the cells. This is necessary for blood cells to perform their function of delivering oxygen and other nutrients to other parts of the body.
The example that shows an organism maintaining homeostasis is b. a person sweating on a hot day. Homeostasis is an organism's ability to maintain a stable internal environment irrespective of the external environment. When a person's body overheats, the body releases water as perspiration or sweat to cool itself down. Another example is when a person gets cold, the hair on his arms and legs, stand up straight - to trap air circulating round his body, and heat it up.
Answer:
D. mRNA.
Explanation:
Polyadenylation is defined as the addition of poly (A) to messenger RNA. This tail is made up of several adenosine monophosphates (adenine bases). In eukaryotes, polyadenylation is part of the process in which messenger RNA is formed for subsequent translation. Therefore, it is part of the process of gene expression.
Mass movement, which is sometimes called <em>waste movement</em> or <em>slope movement, </em>is defined as the large movement of rock, soil and debris downward due to the force of gravity.
<h3>Factors affecting mass movement
</h3>
1. Slope
- Gravity provides the energy to move the materials.
- Rapid movements (e.g. landslide, slumping) etc.
2. Water
- Rainwater acts as a lubricant to weathered materials.
- Rainwater adds weight to weathered materials.
3. Rock structure
- Joints dipping downslope usually assists landslides, rockfalls, rockslide etc
4. Vegetation
- Lack of vegetation cover to hold the loose particles.
5. Vibrations
- Earthquakes.
- Construction processes and mining operations.
