These would be any cells that reproduce asexually, like bacteria
The answer should be
B Both anabolic and catabolic reactions took place in the seed and tree when it was young and growing and both continue now even though the tree reached a stable mass.
The trees should be capable to do both anabolic and catabolic reaction when it is seed or when it is already a big tree. Anabolic reaction happens when the plant making bigger molecule from many smaller molecule, such as in photosynthesis. Anabolic reaction could increase the mass of the plants or be used to make food. Catabolism reaction used to extract energy from the food.
I think c is the correct answer
NaCl is dissolved in water so that in a given region or volume the concentration is initially higher in one part than the other l, thus simple diffusion will occur so that there is a net difference or 0, with respect to the concentration of NaCl in a particular volume of water than another. Basically the NaCl will be distributed throughout volume of water.
