Since 2000, melting ice from the continent totaled enough to raise sea levels globally by about four tenths of an inch, according to the report which relied on the work of 90 scientists. With what’s already baked into the atmosphere, faster melting land ice will likely add between 7.5 and 9.8 inches to earlier U.N. estimates by 2100, the report said. And because of its position downstream, in an area of “preferential excitement,” South Florida could experience rise at the high end as water sloshes around the planet, Kirtman said. “Think of it as pushing down the ocean [in Greenland]. The ocean is fluid, so it’s going to respond somewhere else and that somewhere else is down here,” he said. In South Florida, planners already confronting flooding from sea rise have been more aggressive in assessing sea rise.

Even though there are no choices given in this particular question, the principle of osmosis is very easy to understand.
When we talk about osmosis, we are referring to the movement of water from a low concentration to a higher concentration. This is different from diffusion, which talks specifically about the movement of <em>solutes</em> in the solution (from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.)
When an RBC is placed inside a <em>hypertonic </em>solution, the water inside the RBC will go out thereby shrinking the RBC.
Inside an <em>isotonic</em> solution, the RBC will remain the same because the concentrations are equal.
Inside a <em>hypotonic</em> solution, the RBC will lyse or explode because water will move from the solution going inside the RBC.
<u>Condensation</u> is the next step in the water cycle that is most likely to happen next as water molecules evaporate from a lake near the equator and rise into the atmosphere, as shown in the diagram below. and as the molecules travel away from the equator.
Explanation:
As the warmer air mass rises into the upper atmosphere, at the equator, it begins to cool because temperatures drop with altitude. The relative humidity of the air mass increases until it reachesdew point. The water vapor begins to condense into water droplets.
This air mass begins moving towards the poles (away from the equator) bringing with it clouds (condensed water vapor) that precipitate later on. This air mass begins to sinks because it has become denser with a decrease in temperature. As it sinks it replaces the air mass moving to the equator. The air rushing to the equator is replacing the rising warm air mass at the equator. This cycle continues.
