Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration of water particles to an area of low concentration of water particles across a semi permeable membrane
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration of particles to an area of low concentration of particles across a partially permeable membrane
Plasmolysis is the shrinking of the cytoplasm if a plant cell in response to diffusion of water out of the cell and into a high salt concentration solution as the cell membrane would pull away from the cell wall
Hope this helped
Answer:
The normal range of blood glucose is 70–120 mg/dL. A person has a blood glucose level of 170 mg/dL. Based on your knowledge of the endocrine system and hormones, explain the likely cause for the person's condition.
It could be as a result of high sugar intake which increases the individual's blood glucose level
Explanation:
From the assertion above, it could be deduced that the individual pancrease is no more functioning hence; no control of blood glucose level. Furthermore, the continuous intake of sugar or food materials with high sugar content contributes excessively to increase the blood glucose level in the body.
Some species of penguins, such as chinstrap penguins, depend on open water for their survival. Other species of penguins, such as Adélie penguins, depend on ice. Over the last 20 years, the population size of chinstrap penguins has increased, and the population size of Adélie penguins has decreased. An increase in global air and water temperatures likely caused <span>these changes in population size.</span>
Answer:
a. resolve the branching patterns (evolutionary history) of the Lophotrochozoa
b. (the same, it is repeated)
Explanation:
Nemertios (ribbon worms) and foronids (horseshoe worms) are closely related groups of lofotrocozoa. Lofotrocozoans, or simply trocozoans (= tribomastic celomados with trocophoric larva) are a group of animals that includes annelids, molluscs, endoprocts, brachiopods and other invertebrates. They represent a crucial superphylum for our understanding of the evolution of bilateral symmetry animals. However, given the inconsistency between molecular and morphological data for these groups, their origins were not entirely clear. In the work linked above, the first records of genomes of the Nemertine worm Notospermus geniculatus and the foronid Phoronis australis are presented, along with transcriptomes along the adult bodies. Our phylogenetic analyzes based on the genome place Nemertinos as the sister group of the taxon that contains Phoronidea and Brachiopoda. It is shown that lofotrocozoans share many families of genes with deuterotomes, suggesting that these two groups retain a common genetic repertoire of bilaterals that do not possess ecdisozoans (arthropods, nematodes) or platizoos (platelets, sydermats). Comparative transcriptomics demonstrates that foronid and brachiopod lofophores are similar not only morphologically, but also at the molecular level. Although the lofophore and vertebrates show very different cephalic structures, the lofophorees express the vertebrate head genes and neuronal marker genes. This finding suggests a common origin of the bilaterial pattern of the head, although different types of head will evolve independently in each lineage. In addition, we recorded innate immunity expansions of lineage-specific and toxin-related genes in both lofotrocozoa and deuterostomes. Together, this study reveals a dual nature of lofotrocozoans, in which the conserved and specific characteristics of the lineage shape their evolution.
