Fofino [41]3 years ago

<span>It's because the genome has undergone mutation which means the foetus has a post anal tail and when the fetus matures the genome triggers absorption in development to remove unnecessary components by disintegrating the unnecessary cells (webbing, tail, etc). When this is not removed it is because the genome did not send the signal for absorption.</span>

In osmosis, ______ moves from areas of high to low concentration in order to _______
viktelen [127]
The answer should be D, water; reach equilibrium.

Osmosis is only the movement of water, down the water potential gradient. Movement of other substances should be involved in diffusion or active transport instead.

The goal of osmosis (also diffusion) is to make the concentration of substance (water potential for osmosis) the same. This is the meaning of equilibrium. Water molecules won't stop moving after equilibrium is reached, but there no net flow, meaning the amount of water molecules flowing from the left to right for example is same as the molecules flowing from right to left. So, the second answer is to reach equilibrium.

The answer is D.
