Answer:

The osmosis is the movement of water in and out of the cell down to the concentration gradient of water through the semi-permeable membrane. The concentration gradient determines the rate of osmosis.

However, osmosis indirectly relies upon factors such as the temperature and the surface area.

Surface area elevation also elevates the rate of osmosis. Similarly, with an increase in temperature, osmosis increase too.

Indirectly to the fact that it does not need energy to transport water from a concentration gradient.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Rice plants possesses several traits which allow sthem to grow in large amount of water because standing water helps them to produce air channel known as aerenchyma that connects roots with shoots and transport oxygen to submerged tissues. Standing water also help many weed to grow and rice plants also takes nutrients from them as well.

Genes are responsible for the traits that allow rice plants to grow in large amount of water but if the gene of rice plant is genetically modified with new gene which is resistant to drought, that can allow the rice to grow in less water.

The genetically modified rice plant then do not require large amount of water and can grow easily.

Describe how energy and homeostasis are related in living organisms.
bulgar [2K]

Explanation:

Energy and homeostasis are related in living organisms because we need energy in order for our systems to stay balanced and work to keep our bodies in

All organisms must intake sufficient energy on a sufficiently regular basis to fulfill the minimal requirements of homeostasis and allowing for input energy gaps to be covered by natural energy storage mechanisms, which storage can be filled during sufficiently regular periods of excess input energy.

Cells are homeostatic; viruses are not
